My RGB Raven Customizations

[JdiKnhtJMH]

I've had my RGB Raven for a while and it was a great buy. The Raven is another hilt that works brilliantly for any color, hence why I did it as an RGB. I did have some issues with the claws coming off though, and that was my big modification - I cut them down to about half their size in order to add stability, and I think it looks better like this now as well. I also drilled windows in the emitter and added my own covertec clip and the pommel from one of my Bellicoses. So here it is, have a peek.




Here it is in green and you can kind of see the hole in the emitter

I wish US would offer a short claw version for this saber, the long ones really put too much structural strain on the aluminum and the screws holding it during a duel

I want a Raven badly, but if I get one I'm gonna be forging out some of my own claws for it, probably out of steel.  But they'll definitely look different - will be closer to what's in the pic I have here shows, which is closer to the actual video game saber.

Looks pretty cool. Like a totally different saber.+1

Haha well I'm not havin te claws come off again, cost me 5 bucks to reattach them because I lost the screws that held them in place.

I would be careful how much you angle the claws out though, make sure a saber blade cant get between them and your blade or it could very well bend or snap them off at the attachment point with the screw. Still, cool project, I like the leather wrap idea.
