I love this design!!!
The grip section is it T-Grips or more like windu's grip?
Certainly closer to Windu's in the this case. I find vertical grips give really good orientation control so they find their way onto many of my designs. |

Beautiful work, PS! Yeah, I can see the aerodynamic influence to this hilt (wonderful details)! ...Reminds me of the Gamilon energy cannon in Pluto base from "Star Blazers" (yep, I'm THAT old  ) Where I didnt grow up with the show ive seen quite a few clips through osmosis and general wandering through youtube - I admit my mind sometimes wanders into "superweapon" territory for star wars.... |

Then allow me to submit to you my PERSONAL favorite "PsychoSith Saber Design" during the interim: The Beskar Breaker!  ...Which I co-opted for my own Vhal'Dan Zweihander with permission!  |

This seems interesting, though I don't understand one of those words... May just be a word I don't know. |

 So obviously I wanted to draw twin sabers, but I wanted to draw to sabers that are tactically complementary beyond the normal "saber + shoto" combination. So i thought if we incorporated elements into the main saber to make it more offensive, such as a Bec de Corbin and hook, we could design something meant to not only attack, but pin and manipulate the movements of the opponent. To complement this, we have a small but very easy to wield shoto hilt, with finger rings and a flattened emitter to give it a similar purpose as a punch-dagger. Combine this with the flowing ribbons from the saber, the goal is to use the primary weapon to distract, wound, and immobilize the opponent, leaving them open to quick strikes from the shoto.

This all being said, I'm probably going to step away from the Star Wars art for a bit, I've been in more of a horror/surrealist kick for my art lately. If people are interested might start a new thread for that, though I admit its not even tangentially related to SW.

I love the feel of this design pair. Stunning to look at, but also strategically meaningful. My kind of setup in that light, so I applaud the effort and ideology behind them as well.
I'm also a big fan of doing what one feels is fulfilling. So enjoy your chosen path, everything will still be here when you decide to return to it. (more likely than not...)
