The concept has been rolling around in my head for years, the original sketch I made back around the time Episode II came out is here.

really like the design naru, definately a sith looking saber!

Ooh, nice!

Thanks guys, It wasnt really meant to be a sith saber in particular, just the saber of someone who preferred wood and bone and whatnot over metal piping or flashguns.

Some of my more 'classic' looking saber designs that I did around the time of the concept for this one can be found here at some old geocities site I had at the time.
