Alright, another batch of freshly baked renders coming right up! ;)

This set's of the lightsabers Ving used as a Sith. One of them is the original one he took from the Sith he killed, and he had a duplicate made. Lightweight, to make them easier to dual weild, made from the darker Phrik metal. The endcaps have a.... feature. And the area around the switch has 4 slots around the circumference, to let the user to relocate the ignition switch and buttons to any of the 4 slots. Did my best to keep it plain and colourless. So yeah. That's it. I think. It's 3am, sorry for the messy post.

I'm loving the attention to detail. When I first had a look at the photos I thought "hang on, that's a sith saber isn't it?", then I read your description.

Always had a soft-spot for dual-sabers that link to form a staff. :)


Also known as 'Master Atticus'.

I'm glad you like it, Master Jhen :D

And to finish this off, here's the lightsaber that Ving inherited from his mother, if you read his bio you know what I mean. It's about 50 years old, so I made it more bulky than Ving's sleek lightweight hilts. No blade power or length alteration knobs, just a simple on/off switch. Electrum detailing, combined with a lighter coloured metal to create a very Jedi looking saber, in my opinion. A lot of it is beauty over function. It's also an entirely different style from Ving's sabers. It kinda shows how he was more sith than jedi, and stuck with that saber design, instead of anything inspired by his mother's. For the more lore-obsessed members, like myself, this lightsaber is designed with Form V: Shien/ Djem So in mind, hence the vague similarity to Anakin/Vader's sabers. (He was a Form V specialist and his saber was designed to fit that). Ving's more of a... freestyle combatant. Unpredictable and constantly changing.
But, you didn't come here to read my stream of babbling, you came here to see some renders. So here they come! :D

Very nice :)

I love all the fine detail on the endcap and emitter. Certainly looks more Jedi-ish than your others  ;)
