Okay i promised to add some pictures of my reaper once i had time to work with its decorations so here goes. My first US and its customization as it will be my main saber to use even though i will purchase more.
First of all i should probably mention again that even though Reaper has nice looking emitter and pommel they just werent my style. So i went and changed them to ones that make the Saber feel more like mine. After that i decided to make the handle more comfortable by wrapping it with something. First it seemed like a waste of good looking engravings but now the handle feels much more comfortable than it would be with bare metal.
Here is a picture of what my saber currently looks like.
Here is a close up on the handle.
I used 2 kind of wrap to cover the handle:
First layer is done with bandage like self attaching camoflage wrap to make the handle both comfortable and my grip on it better. On second layer that was for looks i used black camo tape that has fabric like surface. Now the handle is both comfortable to grip and it wont freeze my hands during colder seasons.
I was thinking that i could attach a chain or some other decoration like that to the pommel but i'm not sure if its going too far. What you guys think?
Also:
My friend had nice name idea for this saber that in his opinion reflects my characters personality: "RAGING DARK". What you think of that name? I'm not good at judging if its good that way or should the words be altered in some way.
