This is the second version of Snake-Bite!

The original concept

was made by We adjustet the design for the middle part, so the Crystal would be more visible, but without making it look fragile, so I made it part open, part closed with a metal shroud for stability.
Again the great conceptart from CrispyWire helped a lot with this part! I refined the Emittershroud and various parts, AND most importantly I added A RED ACTIVATION BUTTON!!! That's the reason the blade wasn't ignited in the earlier versions, because: no button, no activation XD

The crystal itself is called "Mantle of the Force". I remembered this crystal from playing Knights of the old Republic, and found it very interesting and special.
I thought, for a saber this cool, you need a equally cool crystal wich can produce a very awesome blade color.

I worked this one out with CrispyWire and it is AWESOME working with his concepts! I really hope this isn't the last opportunity of working with him!
Hopefully it turned out the way he imagined it. Thx again buddy^^
Hope you all enjoy it as much as I enjoy working on it!

PS: I know, it's not perfect... It's a WIP^^ And please stop telling me that it doesn't look right like: "You know the blade should look different, for more realism"
or: "That's not right, a lightsaber should be constructed like this..."
and my favourite: "Let me show you a blueprint how it should look like!!!" and then sends me a google link.

I don't want realism. It's a goddamn Lightsaber^^ I know how a Lightsaber "should" be constructed, trust me... i really do. I have seen blueprints, plans and pics of disassembled sabers en masse... I am quite able to google my research material on my own... thank you^^
