Title: My Consular joins the Dark Side...
Post by: Master Nero Attoru on July 01, 2012, 04:50:51 AM
All right, so the topic title may be a bit misleading - all I did was get a Blazing Red MLS unit (a gift from the girlfriend!) for my Consular.  Now in my book that doesn't necessarily mean it's a Dark Sider's weapon, but you may disagree.  Regardless, I'm already digressing.

The point is, my girlfriend and I snapped some pics of me with the new saber behind our apartment building, and I figured I'd share them with you guys.  Enjoy!

The new saber, in all its glory:

A high guard:

And a low parry:

And some fun shots of me spinning (taken with a longer shutter speed):

The last one is especially neat IMO, since I look kinda transparent.

And here are some more!  Got some of the gf with my blue Initiate V3.

Finally, this was a neat one of me doing some fast, Ataru-esque forward movement (combined once again with the longer shutter speed):

I'm liking the BR in the Consular.... makes it seem more edgy. Great pics, I too like the last one in the first post (the transparent one) :D A LS point well earned, Master.

Consular with BR looks nice. I will also have to start using long shutter speed to take cool pics

If Qui-gon had survived the battle on Naboo and joined Dooku as a Seperatist, this would be his weapon.

Great job!

I agree, the Consular looks cool in BR. I also like that with QDs you can get a "new" saber by ordering a different MLS unit. You gain a LS point. Good job.

I am most displeased. I need to be around when you do this stuff and you know that!

So...You were moving so fast you be came transparent...but you are clearly standing still :-\
This definitely gets you some LS points. 8)

Props on the saber conversion (awesome BTW), on the very cool pictures, and having a significant other who is into the saber culture too!

Thanks everybody!  I'm glad you like them.  I just was so pleased when I got the new color I felt like I had to share...

Don't worry Artorius, you'll definitely be in the next batch ;)

Actually.. if you also remove the shroud from the consular its fully a Sith weapon :)

Cool pics...

I agree.  I have seen some add the Dark War Glaive emitter for some added Sithiness.  I bet the emitter from the new Malice will look awesome on this as well.

Nice! We are going to have to try some of that slow shutter. I am a fan of the red and that particular hilt.
