Finishing up a build for MegaCon. Here's the reference image:  And a quick snapshot of the progress so far:  Cosplay build I'm working on from spare parts. Heavily modified Standard Issue pommel, Shock emitter, misc MHS body. LED's a one-up Luxeon Rebel Blue. A bit greener than the Guardian Blue LED, it's almost Arctic, but without the color-mixing. Video demo since I just got the electronics wired up last night: http://www.instagram.com/p/BDjigzxsnmS/Heat-formed a threaded PVC adapter around the Standard Issue pommel to make an MHS-PVC adapter. Staff extensions are 1" conduit with an extra layer of PVC to make the staff a uniform 1.45" OD. Hand guard in the middle of the blade is more 1" conduit, this time with the extra rings only at the ends. Detail painting later this week. |

That is to cool. Nice work to date, and very nice indeed. While I might not really 'get' the idea of a saber pike, this makes great sense and it looks awesome to boot! Well done.

Thanks a bunch Very cool. We need more staff wielders As in longer hilts and such like this or a Royal Guard inspired type thing Yes! Planning on building a pike with the leftover 16" piece of day blade. This one's only using a 24" blade. That is to cool. Nice work to date, and very nice indeed. While I might not really 'get' the idea of a saber pike, this makes great sense and it looks awesome to boot! Well done.
Mm, I wouldn't have understood the mid-blade grip on a saber, but since this is more of an ancient Electrostaff, I'm enjoying the design quite a bit. |

It becomes much clearer when you spar against one. Formidable weapons that can keep multiple enemies locked out with no risk to the wielder. It is simply a lightspear.

Awesome job! Jarael is one of my favorite EU characters, and that staff you've made looks mighty nice.
