How To Make Your Very Own Lightsaber



This video is a personal favorite which is why I have decided to share it with you. This video will explain how to create a lightsaber prop for personal use. However after you make your lightsaber you can use gimp, Photoshop or illustrator to create and image of yourself that actually looks like an actual JEDI!
After you have created the prop you can then take a picture of your self holding it, in a Jedi position. Then in order to make it look like and actual Jedi photograph you must follow a series of steps. To do this in gimp follow this tutorial.
I wanted to show you you how to do this because I believe that everyone should become Jedi's however because that is impossible you will have to settle for this. I personally really enjoyed the entire creative process from making the actual prop to the digital image.
This is just a fun thing to occupy yourself with for several hours and I HOPE YOU ENJOY.

MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU.
