Re: WHY?!? Cuz t'is the season. Holiday Special Luke Lightsaber build! Post Suggestio
Yikes... February...
Well Valentines was sort of a holiday!
I have NOT forgot about this masterpiece... I just haven't gotten around to finishing it off. Mostly because I live in a small condo where I have nowhere to paint and outside it's always pouring rain or freezing cold...
But here's where it's at...
Notes!
*I did arrows up the side rather than rectangles... to me it looked like it was arrows in the pics. I may take another shot at them down the road, as they are *slightly* off... My stencil making abilities for an arrow that small kept failing me.
*The red bulb didn't fit as I liked, and now kind of looks like a cherry from a police car...
*So I need to pick up a proper sized O-ring, and finish the control box. I've made a few control boxes now, and none of them I've been happy with. I've tried to make it look good while still maintaining the design in my reference pics... but the closer I get to it, the uglier the control box looks. So I think I'm just going to go with a hybrid of the clunky wide design in the pics, with what you see on ROTJ luke sabers and ANH sabers.
No point making this look worse than it already does.
If some day someone finds out what that control box actually is, I'll just pop it off and replace.
