wow this model is great i am a total noob at this but i think this model has inspired me to start modelling
The model looks just awesome!!! Why must they make so many great models...:)
:naughty:
Now I see why Luke has the hots for her (and marries her :))
Good work
uhhh...........must.........have.................. .....updates!.........need.......updates! BRING ON THE PICTURES! lol
Well it looks very (!) sexy. And it's very beautiful. But we need updates!
He's been working on it slowly, but steady.
I'll be patient.
*bump*
Man, this looks great, best model I've seen in JO but I'm beginning to worry - you will finish it won't you? So plz post any updates.
I've been up to my eyeballs at work lately. I've almost finished the texture page. Next I'll build her lightsaber. I'll post a nice render when it's all done :)
wow, that's a relief, thx. I just can't wait till i put my hands on her:D
I havnt been following this thread cause from the sound of it months ago I thought the people you worked for werent gonna let you release it. So does this mean you will actually be able to release it?
Doesn't Mara use Luke's (Anakin's EP II) old saber from EP IV and V?

that's impossible. when luke's hand went down the exhaust shaft, his lightsaber went with it.
Actually, Joruus explained in The Last Command that Imperial troops recovered the hand and lightsaber. Joruus used the hand to create an evil clone, Luuke Skywalker, whom Mara and Luke battled at the end of the novel. Luuke used the blue lightsaber from Episodes IV and V, but was eventually killed by Mara. Luke then gave his old lightsaber to Mara.

SPOILER SPOILER DON"T READ THIS IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO READ THE THRAWN TRILOGY IN THE FUTURE!!!!
In the novel "The las Command" from Timothy Zahn's at the end Luke battle's LUUKE a clone of himself made by the empire from the retrieved dna of his hand that went down the exhaust shaft, and LUUKE uses anakin's saber, and when luke kills him he gives that saber to MARA
damm you post too fast for me, well everything is clear now
yeah, but in any case, she uses a purple saber in MotS :p
and since way way way way back in the thread, this is somewhat based on the MotS Mara, not the EU Mara, per se :p
oh, but mots is part of the eu! :D

Didn't Kyle Katarn use a green lightsaber in Jedi Knight? Now it's blue. Lightsaber continuity doesnt seem to be all that important...

i'm pretty sure his jk2 one is a newer one.
no, it was purple. btw, so glad the forums are back online!

I think its because he quit using the force and then grow weaker in the force.

and his strength in the force affects the colour of his lightsaber blade... how?
Because his weakness in the force affects his memory, and he didn't know that Luke had a wild night with the witch of Endor, broke Kyle's lightsaber in a place I can't mention on this forum, and then had to replace it - he just hoped Kyle's weakness would cloud his memory. ;) :D
Or maybe they just don't care what his lightsaber color was in previous games.

LOL
Kyle uses three lightsabers in Dark Forces II, the first one he gets is green, but that one is destroyed, after defeating Yun, he gets Yun's lightsaber which is yellow, than at the end of the game, he builds his blue one. I could be wrong because I've never finished Dark Forces II, but this is what I have read
you are right about the first two, (finishing in the lightside) but we never see him construct any lightsaber and if you play MOTS he uses an orange in that one, so the blue one came out of nowhere.
maybe he dropped it and broke the crystals but couldnt find his receit to return it so he got kicked out of radio shack.
well, is JK2 set after or before MotS?
i know it may seem obvious, but things ive read make me think MotS could be even after JK2
This link (
http://starwars.com/eu/) shows her with a purple saber... I tend to think that since this is the only pic of her with an ignited saber at StarWars.com that purple is the 'proper' saber color for her... regardless of what is written. I mean, if it's on the OFFICIAL site, isn't it supposed to be... well, official?
yeah, but this isnt the "official" model of her, either
anyway, the lightsaber controversy we are having is about Kyle's multicolored dreamsaber
and his strength in the force affects the colour of his lightsaber blade... how?
Well I thought that the colour of the lightsaber and the strenght in the force was connected, so weak in the force =blue, strong in the force =green, dark in the force =red. Thats just how I fought it was.

I think that's just a visual clue so people understand who's bad and what not. I haven't heard lucas say anything about the difference between saber colors having anythign to do with the Force.
But remeber that even Old Super Obi-Wan had a blue saber... so it doess't necessarilt mean "weak".
Plz make the nude one seperate so younger audiences wont have to see it, would this be possable?

I don't think there were *any* plans to release the nude one... many modelers start with a naked model so that the body looks correct, and to get all the proportions correct.
Plus I think releasing the nude one would be just wrong.

"why not just have a basic skin out on the basic "nude" model
you dont have to model nipples or genitalia, and have a skin without those, and boom, a good base people can use, no stupid graphic nudity"
from my post that was completely removed, i dont see why only my rant coulda been removed... oh well
anyway, aint we done with the nude model issue, it probably aint gonna come out, so whoever brought it back up :tsk:
hey edward, are you going to skin the model yourself? cuz it looks like you practically have it skinned already anyway, hehe... are you gonna release the mapping whatever stuff so people can make fresh skins of the model?
OoOoO
A skinner dream!
I personnally made a lot of modified skins and i hope all these versions will be released.
Extremely nice model btw
Welcome to the Forums, Spectre. Hope you enjoy your stay!

*sigh*
Here's the order of games.
Dark Forces ---> Jedi Knight ---> MotS ---> Jedi Outcast.
The reason Kyle stopped using the Force in early JO is because of his fall to the dark side on Drumond Kaas (MotS).
Mara's lightsaber as the Emperor's Hand was purple/magenta.
When she became a Jedi, it was Luke's old blade.
She had a purple lightsaber on the MOTS cover...
Ack not Spectre! Specter ! ;)
George Lucas himself said it in one of the making of atotc clips that you will only see 4 different lightsaber colors.. and the 4th being purple was chosen by samuel jackson.. dont know how he got lucas to agree with it
You think we were the *ONLY* people bored with just 3 colors after 30 years? :D
Plus since his [Sam's] lightsaber is one of a kind (remember it's the only "electrum" one) they needed a different color to signify it. Plus he asked nicely. ;)

now that you mentioned that, i would like to know what is the difference between an electrum lightsaber and a crystal lightsaber? do u know that jedi_anakin_s?

"Electrum" lightsabre simply refers to the gold-silver finish on Mace's lightsabre hilt, which signifies his status on the Jedi Council. You can look this up in the dictionary... electrum is a alloy of gold and silver (at least 20% silver). And since his lightsaber has that gold looking plating on it... you get the idea. :cool:

How's the progress coming with the model, Peretti?
