Here is my first real customization project on a US Menace. I was going for a Grey Sentinel.

Top View & Side View



The customizations are:
* Swap out for a Dark Shock Pommel
* Added the tassels to the pommel
* Gold MHS trim rings
* Leather wrapped grip
* Swap 2 of the silver thumb screws for gold
* Addition of some Carbon Fiber highlights in red, gold and silver
* Mix-Match of the Menace Emitter into Black and Silver

Here are some detail shots of the smaller stuff.

Really nice concept behind this one! The black and gold color scheme does go well together and the leather and tassel accents are a nice touch  Smiley +1

Thanks. Quick question... What are the jedi order emblems on the sabers in your sig pic?  Did you custom make them or are they something an interested party could get their hands on?
