Title: Senitel or Shadow? Post by: AlthaxX on April 08, 2013, 09:49:03 PM The local Sci-Fi convention is coming up and I am trying to decide on a costume, I'm either going to do a Jedi Shadow or a Senitel. so basically I'm trying to choose between 2 sabers or a staff. my costume right now consists of a grey hoodie with am off center side zip, black fitted pants and hand wraps and a jedi-esque brown belt. i'm going for a minimalist modern style look with not too much flare.
also if i go dual wield how would you go about attaching a saber without a cover-tech to your belt? Title: Re: Senitel or Shadow?

Sentinel and Shadow are the same thing, Shadow being a more specialized path. "Working closely with the Council of First Knowledge, the Shadows seek and destroy all traces of the Dark side of the Force, and its adepts." - Wikipedia Unless you meant in terms of TOR and weapon wielding. I had to design a holster for my wife to make as I am without covertech's on my dual sabers BUT Sentinels still use staves as well, i.e. Bastilla Shan and the Jedi Temple Gaurds. For a con, just for comfortability sake, I would suggest a staff since it can be carried with one hand. Title: Re: Senitel or Shadow?

Throw it in a pocket when you dual wield, and use it for a staff otherwise.

Plus, unscrewing everything over and over would get a bit tedious if you ask me Title: Re: Senitel or Shadow?

And I'm not saying you switch every 10 minutes or anything. Maybe dual wield before lunch, and make a staff after lunch or something. Never hurts to have options. Title: Re: Senitel or Shadow? Post by: AlthaxX on April 09, 2013, 04:39:49 PM I recently discovered the prophecy pomel doubbles as a poor persons couppler for mhs sabers. I think im going to rock a staff with my prophecy shethed on ky belt. I can also bring my v2 pommels if I decide to switch.
