Challenge #10: Lightsaber: kdub

[kdub]

nice challenge, something easy enough for my lazy ass to do.

nothin fancy. its a little over, like 850. might bring it down to 750 but i dont see the point really. its just for fun. sort of looks like a clarinet though.

rendered two animated gifs to see the normal map. kinda big, one is 700k and one is 300k.

on (http://www.kwalker.ms11.net/saber/sp.gif) and off (http://www.kwalker.ms11.net/saber/sp2.gif)

sorry about the big pics. only like 150k, shouldnt be too bad.

Kickass kdub, I really like the animated gifs, but I think the materials could be more efficient. /images/graemlins/wink.gif

Finally got the thing showing in the viewport. updated the diffuse so it actually does something. new blade.
