Hi Dutch, this ^^ kinda sounds like a request...I think I have something lying around... AH yes, here we go...  That is very kind of you, thanks and I am fortunate enough to call you a real friend also. Plus the work you request keeps pushing my limits. And in 2025 I have some "Stranger" designs including a new series of Astromech inspired sabers you won't believe! ALRIGHT!!! Thanks so much for this FT! Yes...I am just loving how these both look; such a classic design for both  And FT's renderings just exemplify that fact! I'm much obliged  Thanks Mav! Yeah I completely agree that the v4 is amazing! Oh, and your sabers look fantastic  Points! |

Hi Dutch, I already had the four Sentinel variants modelled (standard and LE in Light and Dark) but I needed to build a Renegade Pommel. It was a little tricky modelling it to get all the lines and details on it but again it is a beautiful little pommel. Though having said that it was hard work...this pommel was much harder to build    |

Well you are a typical Sith, keeping your plans hidden then revealing yourselves when you're ready like Darth Maul! I expect you will come out of the shadows with details soon.
That's just it. You see Project:BOOYA!....in my hands......in the signature YOU created for me. It's been my go-to saber for cons for years. I only wanted to keep it under wraps until it was completed. Now......I want to see the rest of this. |

Hi there and HNY to you, It seems an eternity since I made all those signature pics and avatars for members here, I feel suddenly even older! That said it would be cool to see how your plans worked out. The pommel you see above was one I made WAY back in Aug of 2018 when I attached it to a tribute saber to Ultrasabers. I can't actually remember if I posted it or not (I think I did cos I recall mentioning I hoped US didn't mind me borrowing their logo!). I recently discovered an old USB stick and low and behold the following saber was on it. I'm giving it a polish and adding the blade glow etc, just a few tweaks then bringing it back for you all to see. Anyhow to start off 2025 here are a few images off the USB stick.    They are older images...look at all the speckles, poor lighting and no blade glow effect....But they still check out! |

Hi LSG, thanks glad folks appreciate sabers from a more elegant time! Good news, I may have a few more "lost treasures" as there was around 20 folders of files on the USB stick I found - those designs will need bringing up to date. And I think I have around 30 designs from my site still to post...so hopefully some more future classics! Thanks again for your support. |

Less interested in the pommel, more interested in the emitter.  |

Less interested in the pommel, more interested in the emitter. Hi Logos, I'm just doing a bit of a facelift to the renders and will post new pics soon I hope. In the meantime I'll just drop a few more renders of my new saber...      I can't begin to tell you how much fun this saber is in reality...but I have a big grin when spinning it about. Thanks to everyone who has looked in on this one! |

It really is an excellent saber. Love the Shock pommel on there.

Hi there, the Shock pommel is a work of art in itself. The way the anodising has been done is phenomenal, plus the addition of the pommel hasn't altered the saber's balance point by much (I have an Aeon pommel to compare with). Whoever actually designed the Sentinel (over nine years ago now) certainly knew their stuff and deserves more credit. |

However I can't take credit for picking that pommel, it came as a replacement for the original which was misplaced then the previous owner chose the Shock for me. |

1) Anodi zing 2) The Shock itself if just a phenomenally well balanced saber despite how much heavier the emitter is than the pommel. 3) Do NOT tell me that the Sentinels are 9yo. Imma cry. |

Actually, I believe the V4 sabers (first year for Sentinel and Apprentice sabers) were released in 2014. *hands Logos a kleenex*

Hi Saber Surfer, you're right! I just checked the US YouTube channel to watch the Sentinel's release video and sorry Logos it was 10 years' old. I have a box of Kleenex on standby for both of us! And Lord_S_Gray was correct: Ha - well classics don't have expiry dates they just get more appreciated with age!
