Title: Practice first!
Post by: Master Elwood Graestar on April 08, 2018, 12:31:00 AM
Behold the results!! Practicing on my Dominix V2 before i finish up on my other featured first customization- blaster damage, emitter damage, and a bit of engraving🤙🏻

I also decided to just give it a good buff-down with some fine grit.  And to start my engraving lines, first i used an exacto blade to cut my starter grooves before digging in with the dremmel.  A couple fine hand files helped me smooth the breach point in the emitter, and along the edges of the battle scars. Next step- the finishing of Thorne!

Thanks, everyone!😁 yes, it was a LOT of fun, actually! Otherwise i wouldn’t have finished the rest of it for good measure, lol😄. 
Big thanks to Drahcir for the props🤙🏻 You and a few others here are the inspiration to refuse to let good enough be good enough🤘🏻

Nice work Elwood! I really love how you can see the blade colour through the blaster damage. Can't wait to see your next saber customization.

Cool. It took guts to pull the trigger on that weathering and Blaster damage. Two thumbs up on an excellent job.

I love that blaster damage, something about that starburst with the exposed blade... just lovely.

That looks really cool. I keep chickening out every time I think about tearing into one my sabers.

Good job man. Nicely done indeed.

I’m just good at rolling with it when my rotary bits jump across the hilt. “Well- guess it’s a BIGGER scar now” lol😄

It’s funny, I actually had to do a double take and check to see the avatar. For a minute I thought Master G’s Saber WAS Bone’s!!!
