[Original]
Decided to take part in the Quixel #scifiathlon2016 contest. I didn't have a model and have wanted to do a lightsaber for some time. So I figured I would do a dirty / dusty version of Luke's saber from ESB.

I am almost finished with the high poly and am leaving a few of the details to do with quixel suite.
Currently missing a couple of cuts in the ring around the top and need to extrude 1 piece out of the cylinder.

Low Poly with Bake

Finished with the high poly other than a pass to loosen some edges and then to rotate the screws

Details look good and correct since you specifically doing EP5 since there is a difference between EP3 4 and 5, will be nice to see it textured

Low poly completed. Still need to unwrap. Since the contest said don't go absurd with polycount I have probably gone a little overboard, but within the realm of usability for the polycount. Sitting around 8k currently. A lot is in the screws and in the number of edgeloops I am using on many of the pieces.

Finished the unwrapping and did a test bake.

Materials set out, I want to add a little more to it since it mainly uses generators for masks. Thinking finger prints on it and things like that.

Calling it done for now, added in another dirt pass. I may do another material set for a clean saber.

I was working on a unity version that would allow you to do just that :P.

Worked on presentation tonight and bringing out the brass.

Turned down the saturation on the lights, added a little more edge wear while removing some dirt and lowered the intensity of the lights.
