So this is my own personal version of me in the SW galaxy. Hopefully this is the right place to post these pics!
So I know a tiny little thing like me can't be intimidating, but here it is:
Aletani the Dauntless: Juggernaut, Sith, Badass, Fire Orange Dark Initiate V3




(Oh, and please ignore the nooby saber grips, I'm totally new at this owning a lightsaber thing. but loving it!!!)

I dunno.  I think a confident smirk can be just as unsettling as no smile. 

Also props to you.

looks great and I think your grip is fine, just backwards. I mean that looks like a decent rest position from which you can easily deflect a strike from most directions, but the most sword fighting experience I have is from saber fights with my also totally untrained friend. So what do I know.

point for the excellent costume and awesome choice of FO.

Very cool and different. I especially like the asymmetrical collar and the angle at the back on the collar and heel of the boots. It all works well together.
Did you make all of that stuff or piece it together? Either is an accomplishment and impressive for different reasons.

Nooby grip? Looks fine to me, I'm also a noob and have an Initiate so take that with a grain of salt.
And don't listen to the "no smiles" rule, some of the most sinister characters are at their creepiest when they're smiling.

Smirk, smile, or nothing. It wont take away from the sinister look of your costume and saber. It's very sithly professional.

Well done. Are you looking at adding accessories, or keeping the look stream lined?

I like the rivets in the gloves, but they seem kind of small, like they don't cover the heel of your hand. Its probably just the angle.

another point for the orange saber, because orange is awesome.

They're a girlie half glove with cut off fingers in them. Lol. So they only cover half of my palm and back of my hand. 😁

Thanks. I love orange. I want to make it a darker orange. I feel like its an orange sherbet color right now.

there is also pyrestone orange that is a little more red, but its too late for that on you current saber, and you have to special order that color, you might try a red colour filter but that would dim the blade. with a little work you could convert the current LED module to an MLS module and order a pyrestone MLS unit, then you could switch them back and forth.
 the super secret forum colors and how to order them are found here: http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=4475.0
 the MLS unit is found here: http://www.ultrasabers.com/product-p/mls.htm

I am still looking for the MLS conversion thread, I will probably find it right after I hit "post"

No, I actually commissioned the top and leggings together from the same gal. Then I found the boots on a different gal's shop and had to fix the way it was laced, from just a leather string to individually tied elastic bands. It looks much better, b/c the bands pull it tight and help it stay straight and not pucker in between the grommets.

I pieced it together from different small time designers, but the leggings and top came from the same gal, so the seam from the top to the pants match up. I love how it all came together.

Intimidation comes in many forms. I've never been physically imposing, but I can be intimidating.

The costume is super cool, and you look like you're having a blast. Now you just need some Jedi to oppose you.
