I take it that you have left and returned? or are you simply one hell of a popular person.

I haven't seen you around anywhere- therefore... WELCOME!

[Aletani]

lol. i've been around for a long time - just haven't had time to be active on this forum. might be jumping back into some things, so i figured i'd update my various topics.

That looks awesome! More Jedi should have tattoos! Point for you and the awesome outfit! How long did it take you to make?

[Aletani]

thanks! The Sith outfit (the black leather one) was pieced together from various small businesses.

the Dark Jedi (samurai style) took me probably around 50 hours or so - I completely custom made it from scratch, using newspaper patterns and what not. ^_^ It was a ton of fun! but now I think I should make a sleeveless tunic for it to show off my sleeve hehe.

Hi Aletani.  Nice to see you on the forum again.  I think that there was a huge cosmic joke or collective joining when I became the owner of your first personally built saber earlier this year.  I had no idea of your character's full name, background or saber's name and just read about it or perhaps had totally forgotten.  Only knew that I liked it from the first time that I saw photos of it, I am thinking a while back in the gallery photos of Manticores ?  If you still have a close up of the saber would you please post it here so that everyone can view the final customized outcome ( I'm not yet able to post pics ) and perhaps a final description.  Thanks oodles.

Members just consider the possibility of this happening between two persons who did not know each other:

Aletani The Dauntless builds her first saber also called Dauntless which now is in the hands of Dauntless 7. 


Edit:  Found some photos of the saber on your other thread under Costumes and Props.

[Aletani]

Dauntless - Pyrestone Orange Stunt, Manticore Emitter, War Glaive Body, Archon Classic Pommel. This one of a kind saber was painstakingly made by myself - my "initiation" build - it was a special project between my retired electrical engineer grandfather and I - all connections are well soldered and it's in perfect condition. Lacing and tassels were hand made by me placed over supple, patterned leather.

Glad you're enjoying it! It'll always be a special hilt to me. And I definitely think cosmic joke is more appropriate, especially in light of the crazy stuff my character has gone thru in the old rps. lol! hope this is the type of post you were asking for.

Yes.  +1 for -123 point and thanks again.  I have made the guarded switch entirely black and yes it is valuable to me as well.

Well welcome back to this forum!

I've seen you posting in other places, though we've never spoken before.

[Aletani]

Thanks! ^_^

Awesome cosplays! I really like your use of colors. very different from they typical browns and blacks you see in many Jedi Cosplays. I am currently awaiting my first US then it's off to the fabric store to collect the materials for mine. Just still debating on a robe or not.. Anyway..rambling.. Great work!

First pic: my DIv3

Yes, pretty basic, but it fits very well in my small hand and I am interested in learning proper stance and grip etc for lightsabers.

Like I said I'll try and post a good pic or two of my outfit ASAP.

OMG, your hands are so tiny.

[Vixus PriX]

OMG, your hands are so tiny.

Be nice now.

HRMAGURG! I remember you now! I think... Where do I know that name from?

Welcome back.
