Thanks for saying so! I really really enjoyed Trilla as the main antagonist. Props to her VA. Anywho its been raining a bunch here so I did a few nautical-themed sabers. Also trying a new style with the blade effects.  I know you're going for nautical themes, but the Seven Seas is bugging me with the sextant inspired guard. Reminds me too much of that dumb thing from that dumb movie.  |

Fair enough, though you said yourself, supposed to represent a sextant, not a...whatever that was. (Even I admit the dagger thing was kinda weird) |

Thanks for saying so! I really really enjoyed Trilla as the main antagonist. Props to her VA. Anywho its been raining a bunch here so I did a few nautical-themed sabers. Also trying a new style with the blade effects. All three of those are beautiful, but Poseidon's Law is my favorite. Poseidon has always been one of my favorite characters from Greek mythology, and that saber looks fitting of him for sure. |

Gotta agree. I love the "trident" emitter. |

Great saber Psycho, but for the second time (IIRC) I have to agree with Logos about the dagger thing. Wasn't the dagger described as being an ancient Sith artifact yet it had to have been made/modified what, 30 years ealier to point to the location of said second object? @Logos: How about Stretch Armstrong making the argument? point to Psycho once again. |

That was my first choice, but I didn't want to use the word 'stretch' twice in one sentence. |

Logos did get the closest guess with Ren / Sidious / Revan Though Taegin's right I probably shouldve given a better hint. Oh well point to Logos and here y'all go Correct answer: Trilla Suduri / Kylo Ren / Darth Traya  Sadly the drawing isnt quite what I hoped. I decided to finish it at 2 am in a sleep-deprived state. went right for the 6B pencil without using lighter shades then used a pen with a frayed tip soo  I actually REALLY like this drawing, PS. Darth Traya in particular looks...haunting (apropos considering her history IMO). I think you did a remarkable job! Thanks for saying so! I really really enjoyed Trilla as the main antagonist. Props to her VA. Anywho its been raining a bunch here so I did a few nautical-themed sabers. Also trying a new style with the blade effects. Some VERY interesting developments going on with these sabers! All have some incredible details but I think that I like Poseidon's Law (great name!) the best out of the three  These hilts look like they'd be right at home with some of the primal Jedi/Sith of Ulic Qel-Droma's time. Awesome job my friend! Point!

Yeah, TRoS was...not good. But at least your saber's sextant-detail IS pertinent for the weapon, NOT just a "MacGuffin" for the lone, contrived sake of adding a convoluted quest to pad movie time... |

I find it weird that everyone seems to be liking Poseidon's Law so much as it was my least favorite of the three! But thats also why I try to do stuff outside of my own aesthetic - I know people's taste on sabers is *super* variable. I actually very much enjoyed TRoS (shocker, I know), but the dagger was weird. You can see more of my thoughts in the TRoS Thoughts thread http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=43272.0 |

Been feeling....unsatisfied with myself lately in regards to art. The next few posts here will be farther apart, but rest assured its because I'm actually taking my time and not doing 5-10m quick doodles.

Alrighty, so. You may have noticed any pencil-shaded drawings I have done recently the shading is more poorly done. I too noticed and am remanding myself to drawing boot camp so to speak. My next few sabers, labeled "back to basics" will avoid the common shortcuts I have previously taken on my saber doodles and just draw the saber as envisioned. I will include with each one a line diagram closer to my typical style at the top to give more detail since I tend to be heavy-handed with the pencils. First one fresh off the notepad: the Shii-Cho  |

First one fresh off the notepad: the Shii-Cho I like it. Simple yet functional, with a touch of personality. Just please don't automatically do a curved hilt and call it "Makashi". -_- |

I've already drawn a hilt titled "Makashi" - it was the hilt based upon a Foil |

Hi Psycho,
I like the design, I have to say though I thought the etch on the shroud was Gallifreyan (I think I spelt that correctly) symbols and you'd done a Doctor Who themed hilt.
