Maximum Effort
This one spent a looooong time bouncing around in my head. Crossing everyone’s favorite merc with a mouth and a lightsaber seemed like a no brainer. It’s big, ridiculous, overly flashy and obnoxious, I think he’d be jumping for joy. It features an MP3 player/headphone and mic jacks/volume knob built into the pommel(nonfunctional), a throwing star hand guard, notes in braille for Al, and EDAW backwards across the knuckles for stamping faces.
CONSTRUCTION/CUSTOMIZATION
All my hilts are designed with a steel threaded rod running down the middle for structural stability. This one has two smaller split sections of rod due to the curve of the hilt. Because of the unique nature of this hilt it is not interchangeable with my other hilt components.
WEIGHT = 15oz
LENGTH = 12.25 inches
WIDTH = 2 inches at grip 4 at the widest part of the knucks
FYI/CYA DISCLAIMER
The following is a fictional break down of the physical features of the hilt. These are the features I envisioned while I was designing it. Sadly the hilt will not actually produce a cutting blade and is made of resin, not metal.)
THE GOODS
Emitter/Shield- An incredibly wide oval shaped shroud and emitter. A brass inner emitter sports one main point and two side running ports. The shield has 6 blue lenses control scopes and in a first I’m pretty sure any where two accessory rails.
Switch Assembly - A topic of much debate, this hilt has a 1911 style trigger ignition switch. It is protected by an outer guard to prevent accidental presses.
Main Grip- Definitely the attention grabber, a huge honking set of knuckles adorned with an target identification stamp
Pommel - The entertainment center as well as target selection switch
OPTIONS - This hilt is available in two forms.
Raw Resin Kit - fresh out of the print vat, will need a small amount of sanding(the beauty of resin printing vs pla, incredibly smooth surfaces right off the printer and super easy to sand. I will give it a once-over and remove any small support burns or uneven surfaces so you’re all ready to prime and paint.
Turn around time - Parts are printed per order and average print time per hilt is 12 to 16 hours. Should ship within 7-10 days of order.
OR!
Premiere Display - This piece will be given my utmost level of attention and detail, sanded, primed and painted. It will come with a certificate of authenticity card which will include the Soupcan13 badge of quality as well as my signature and will include its run number(I plan on doing a total of 200 in this run). My painting process includes, all parts deburred and sanded, priming, airbrushing the base coat, applying color coats, masking and applying secondary detail colors, detail painting, black wash/corrosion wash and finally 3 coats of high quality clear coat to protect from chips, scratches and prevent paint from wearing due to handling.
Turn around time - Parts are painted per order and average paint time per hilt is 6 to 8 hours. Should ship within 15-18 days of order.
