VIEW #1 (back) - Now with button!After finding a lack of focus and projects to deal with due to my laptop crashing, I decided to take Lon Wol's lightsaber from 2D into the third dimension with Maya.
Everything took a lot of trial and error, especially making a gem shader for the blue stone but I think it really paid off. The detailing and multi-level pieces were a real challenge.
I really love how this turned out because the lighting is as dramatic as always leaving you to wonder how the lightsaber ended up on the floor of a ancient temple and what is causing the mysterious red light, another saber perhaps?
You decide...
Done in Maya

Really nice lightsaber. Uh, with the blue 'ball' on the end, though, it looks like a sonic screwdriver. Which is cool in and of itself!

Thanks. Never had any intention to make it look like a "sonic screwdriver" -I'm assuming that's a Dr. Who thing.

That's.... really cool. Great work on the light saber. This really looks awesome. wow *jawdrops*
I'm getting jealous. I need to redo my own light saber... X-D
Just one thing... I think the ground reflects too much. Ancient temples usually don't have polished floors.
