The more or less full progress on 'Tre'nala'dor's Heart,' my custom Ultrasabers Consular
It started with swapping out the emitter for the Arbiter version, and the pommel for the one from the Dark Warglaive
Masked off portions of the sleeve and used aluminum black to create the design work
Cleaned off the aluminum black and redid the design using salt water etching
Laying out the new idea for the saber.
The plan is to replace the current emitter and pommel with the pommels from the Initiate V5s I used in 'Paladya's Storm.'
After drilling and tapping the holes for the retention screws, I used aluminum black to darken and weather the new emitter and pommel.
I deliberately darkened the 'inlay' sections more than the ridges to set them off and blend in more with what I already had.
After a matte finish was sprayed on, I assembled the new version of 'Tre'nala'dor's Heart.'
To my eyes, at least, this now looks more like the saber of a Sith
