I'm glad to report my Stalker was just approved a week or two ago. I was thrilled. SL-92281.

Sorry in advance if this takes a while to load! Stole these off of Roxy the Rancor's page.

Another saber done. This is the Sith Stalker saber. I have also seen it referred to as a Sith claymore. As such this one will be the one in my hand while in costume. I shortened it a little bit since I last posted and I reshaped the prongs to be more game accurate. My previous iteration had too much curve to the fins. Pretty intimidating. I think it turned out great. Might add a belt clip to it if I have time.

Saber update time! I have completed all the major assembly of the 6 sabers. From here on out its just finishing and paint. Once they are all looking pretty and hanging from my belt, the costume is DONE! We are right on track for the debut at Celebration VI. Here is a pic and a video.

Ladies and gents, I give you my darth maul pvc saber. Not too bad for ~$3. A bit more contrast than necessary, but it will do nicely.

Honestly I do not know the weight. There is an AMAZING electronics surplus store called Skycraft near Orlando. Its a real treasure trove. I got the magnets there, I know they are Neodymium, but that's about it. All I know is that they hold plenty well. See you at the costume contest, I cant wait!

The Starkiller saber is done. The Maul is on the schedule for paint tomorrow, and construction will begin on the remaining three. Enjoy! ==========Click the pic below for video=============

Saber crafting has begun. As fate would have it I have a Master replica Vader hilt that I gutted from a while back. Its heavy, but it looks great, so ill be using it. Here you can see the my Starkiller and Maul that I started today. No Bondo YAY!

Yep, its mostly airbrushed. For all of the body armor I started with a metallic silver base. Then airbrushed a dark gray gradient to give it some character. I tried to keep the high areas the silver base color. After that I went in and faded black outward from the lower areas. I was pretty happy with the result, its really fast too. I did not have the airbrush when I painted the helm though, that was all dry-brushed. Love the airbrush though. $20 well spent at Harbor Freight http://www.harborfreight.com/deluxe-airbrush-kit-95810.html.

All that is left to do is craft up some sabers and I am all set. I will be wearing the completed costume to Celebration VI and I am entered in the costume pageant on the 25th. Cant wait to see you guys there. Let me know what you guys think!!!

More pics and a video. Sorry the light sucks in the living room at night. But the skirts have had their graphics painted on! CLICK THE PIC for video

Here are a few detail shots of the ribs in some better light.

The ribs are painted and mounted. Time for a wall of photos! My loyal apprentice, DARTH OSCAR!!!!!

Starting to finish up the ribs. If all goes well I should have them painted tomorrow. They still have some corners and polygons where I wish they were more rounded, but all-in-all I am happy with them. I am REALLY excited to get them mounted and see how everything looks. There is finally some light at the end of the tunnel! Got some paint laid down on the ribs. I still need to do the blood spatter as well as apply a final clear coat. It will end up a bit glossier than it appears now. Really excited. Silver Base Airbrushed, awaiting blood spatter and a clear coat. test fit

I have some painted claws for ya. I did a bit of finishing on the ribs. I will continue to work on that this week and I will have some pics soon.
