  • The Naboo Starfighter is a big win for me and my LEGO Star Wars collection, but I really wish the LEGO did a new mold for the beauty that is the darksaber. So I took matters into my own hands and made a custom version using existing LEGO pieces.

    Correction: Lego actually has been using this version of the dark saber for almost 10 years, go back to the pre vizla and the darth maul sets, it sucks that after 10 years Lego still hasn’t done a proper dark saber

      Goes with custom designers:

      - With Darksaber in Mandalorian, I prefer Brickarms version.
      We can forget about the lazy dArKSaBeR of LEGO now, because it's look like many others lightsaber, a normal hilt (part 64567) and a Wand put in it.

    @TheWhovinerd-1963 2 роки тому

    I made my own custom Lego darksaber as well because I hated the one Lego made it was so inaccurate.
    What I did was I got a lightsaber hilt in a gun metal grey colour and a silver katana sword. I cut the handle of the katana sword about a quarter of the way so it would fit into the hilt. Then I got a sharpie and coloured the blade in black and rubbed it with a tissue so some of the silver still came through. In the clone wars, rebels the blade has a sort of crackling effect travelling through the blade as a sort of pulse of energy. My custom isn’t entirely accurate but it looks better than Legos at least. I display it with my Pre-visla figure and occasionally my Darth maul figure.
    I love the dark sabre it’s a cool design and I love how it is more like a katana than a regular lightsaber. It adds to its uniqueness, while also looking very sleek and stylish.
    The thing that bugs me about the Jin Djarin figure is he doesn’t include a hair piece and also the fact that the helmet doesn’t match the silver of the rest of the armour. Ik I’m nitpicking tbf lol 😂. Xx

    I'd be happy if LEGO just made the regular 4L bar piece in transparent black. I think that'd be leagues better than the opaque black version they are using now. A modified electric light saber hilt could still make it light up, and might produce an interesting effect for trans black.

    Seeing as you used correction tape for the blade. I got this alternative for you. Use the Katana blade from Ninjago but instead sand down the guard of the hilt on the left and right side (or use a modelling scalpel). Then get some acrylic paint for kit models (Airfix Revell etc). White and Gun Metal. Also this is where you get to learn a new model painting technique "Dry Brushing" get a modelling brush dip it into your gun metal paint then remove the paint on a peice of cloth as much as possible. Then lightly brush the hilt you will notice that the some paint is being applied only to the raised areas of the hilt creating detail. Keep doing this until desired effect. Then with the white acrylic paint just apply to the top and bottom edge of the blade. Then lastly still with the white paint dry brush the upper and lower vertical edges of the blade on both sides leaving a solid band of black on both sides. Drybrushing models to create detail is like massively satisfying once you get the hang of it
