Description
Ok, this is the first attempt to texture this model, and definitely my first experiment in doing metal. Note, these textures are *very* basic, and there are a lot of individual tweaks that will be going on as this process continues.
As always, comments are encouraged, and I hope you enjoy my journey as much as I am enjoying it. ^^

I think the metal looks quite nice Like aluminium of some sort. But what is it? A tool, what kind of tool???? What in the big gsus are you designing?
FYSavant
Actually, the metal is aluminum, so I guess its not too bad of a first try. ^^ I'm calling it a tool because I'm not sure what else to call it just yet. :) I can say this much: Its a movie prop. Glad you like it! ^^

Well we can't call it by its right name so we all call them sci-fi weapons.. Looks great..

why can't you call it what it is?
FYSavant
Well, we can if we really want to, but I'm just being anal about it because when I posted one of these here before, a decent argument insued about putting it in the marketplace vs in the freestuff if I called it something similar to what it was modeled after. For fans, however, it is hard not to know what it is. :)

Awesome image. Is there a site that has reference images of light sabers?
FYSavant
I don't know of any that provide reference materials, per se. I'm going off of a graflex flash tube that I have here in hand, so the model is pretty accurate. Brushed aluminum is hard to do properly, but this is working out well enough. Not sure if I'll get 100% photorealism with this project, but hopefully darned near close. ^^
