I got the idea for this quite by accident, while looking for any provenance on Orange saber blades. I had originally selected orange for my Dark Initiate V2 because Halloween is my favorite holiday, and the black and orange look epic together. It was while looking to see if anyone used an Orange blade that I discovered a fan fiction piece about Darth Jawa and the Jawa juice war.
The following photo of a particularly evil Jawa with a sinister grin and orange saber clinched it. The 24" initiate blade is perfect for a Jawa Saber, so I began sanding, scratching, weathering, the pristine Dark Initiate into something that looked like it was owned by a Jawa.
I added a haphazardly wound leather strap to echo the Jawa bandoliers.
I'm quite pleased with it now, and I'm designing a cosplay around it.
