Post by: Big Boss on July 10, 2011, 12:37:49 AM the last saber is quite interesting, what was it originally before you customized it a Dominix? or did you build it from scratch?

Post by: Kalibos on July 10, 2011, 06:47:16 AM When ultrasabers were running their free saber give away event I ordered a RGB Dark Prophecy and received this cool pvc saber as well free of charge (Sweet). Upon research I found it to be a pvc omen (I think,) this gave me a base for a custom job so here goes: Wrapped hilt with paracord
Hot glued in to place sprayed whole saber Matt black Killed our old Hoover (wife pleased with replacement!) Cut up two lengths of tube from above mentioned hoover Inserted a small section on to the thoracic part of the hilt Gave next segment of tube a very long angled cut ro extend the emitter(as seen on photos) Robbed the tube clamp off above mentioned dead hoover inverted it and made a pseudo-claw (not as good as war glaive or raven claws but beggars cant be choosers) Glued and clamped said claw on to exsisting emmitter. Job done!

This saber needs a Name, any suggestions? Kalibos Title: Re: Experimental lightsaber Photography. Post by: darth nicromonia on July 12, 2011, 07:03:03 PM Wow, :o that last saber is spectacular.

Title: Re: Experimental lightsaber Photography. Post by: darth nicromonia on July 12, 2011, 07:19:09 PM You sure got that right!! It is sick!!!!! :o
Title: Re: Experimental lightsaber Photography. Post by: Jodaan on July 12, 2011, 07:20:03 PM I propose the Wookiee Comb ;D
Just kidding. I think that the Diabolus suit it perfectly. I mean, look at this claw, it makes me think of fangs and horns like Diablo's ! (Blizzard's game Diablo, not Marvel's ;) ) Title: Re: Experimental lightsaber Photography. Post by: darth nicromonia on July 12, 2011, 07:32:37 PM Your totally right the Diablolus is an amazing name. Personaly I was thinking Mallticor but Diablolus is still and amazing name. :D
Title: Re: Experimental lightsaber Photography. Post by: Kalibos on July 18, 2011, 06:58:42 PM Diabolus it is then, Man I spent so much time playing Diablo 2 that I ended up with 4 lvl 80+ characters (played it to death though also in the novostar obsidian launch video they are playing the town music from Diablo 1 in the background)
Title: Re: Experimental lightsaber Photography. Post by: Jodaan on July 18, 2011, 09:37:32 PM Yaaay ! Deeply honored that you picked what I suggested ! I'm always glad when I offer the right name for someone or something.
And yes, Diablo is a great part of my gaming life. I have the II on my laptop and I used to play it in class (like in english lessons, where we are stucked with "Where is Bryan ? He is in the kitchen."-like classes due to the lack of interest for the beautiful language that is yours dear fellows. I overact the lameness of our classes of course, but it's what I feel. I'm quite bilingual as you might have noticed ;) ). I played both Diablo and Diablo II. The depth of the first one, the darkness, the musics... Perfect, it let deep and beloved wounds on my imagination when I need to think on something dark and horrible. And the second... No more digging stage by stage through catacombs and layers of rock to finally come in Hell (and always finding an elevator to avoid having to go through the 75 levels back to your corpse) but a complete adventure, a wonderful travel for a middle european forest, to the mighty sands of the East and then the swamps of the amazonian-like last "normal" stage before Hell. On the citadel of Pandemonium with the last heroes of Light. Then the cold and arid lands of the barbarians... Just one word : "Sublime" as we French says ;D.

Diablo 2 is my baby I loved that game to death. I played though 1 and 2 and the expansion. I wish i still had the expansion disc but i think the disc was in our crashed CPU when we thru it out :'( |
