Hell, the only reason I liked the concept was because black and green is my favorite color combination. <_<

Side note: camera effects are fun to play with.

Yeah, I was thinking that if you get any Heavy grade blade, and find a way to paint the inside black, then only the outer walls of it will light up with color. Sorry if this was posted before, I don't have time at the moment to read all the way through this one, but I think it's doable.

The video guy has a nice thing, but it's not a true black saber blade. As mentioned before, physics denies the actual existence of a literal black blade, but a black core is the generally accepted goal for a black saber. He didn't really achieve that. I like his saber though. lol

Oh for the love of Yoda, don't tell me this conversation has resumed...

Because it is TEH KEWL!!!  Roll Eyes

I personally don't care for it because, according to basic color physics, a LIGHTsaber cannot be black because according to basic color theory for light, black is defined as the total absence of light and color. Given that a lightsaber has always been shown to emit light (evidenced by the surrounding objects reflecting that light), then a black lightsaber cannot exist, especially not in the form that it shows in SW (black blade with a halo of light), because an object that is black can't emit light from the surface.

Thank you.  I tire of posting this little nugget of logic every time somebody brings black lightsabers up.

I should get Ultra to make a rule against such discussions...

I wouldn't mind it, though I think it's a little extreme. Certainly, too darned many threads about it keep cropping up. Awhile back there were 3 going at once! Tongue Though if I ever complete my experiment, I'd love to post a video for the sake of sharing the irony. I mean, a guy who hates black blades.... inventing one that's duelable? You know it's funny. Wink

Not to disagree, but, well, yes. I disagree. Given his approach and the technology involved... I doubt his approach could result in anything much better.
