Title: An interesting blade plug, and an updated saber. Pic Heavy! Post by: srams on February 13, 2014, 06:53:30 PM I created an interesting plug for my saber this morning, I was playing with a new, $1 flashlight, and thought, "hey this fits down the hilt of my saber just perfectly! I'll cut it up." I first sanded it down to make it look weathered and cut it leaving about 1.25" approx. I got the flashlight at the $1 section at my local Target.

Its perfectly safe to look at them. And as promised here is my updated saber... Predator. It is an Ultrasabers initiate customized. The color is SY with a dark yellow filter.

I ran into the light issue as well when taking pictures, but found that lower exposure let the little points of light show up.Title: Re: An interesting blade plug, and an updated saber. Pic Heavy!

I might try this out. You can see another one in the background on the floor. It started out all black. I used the side with the LED's. Title: Re: An interesting blade plug, and an updated saber. Pic Heavy! Post by: Ninja-Jedi on February 14, 2014, 03:47:27 PM Nice Job! U could even make little printed cutouts with filters and such to go inside the lens if its
easy to get to. Might be able to create some intersting effects |
