CUSTOM - 1:1 Vader's severed hand prop w/ lightsaber - DONE!

I'm proud to show this crazy thing off after a few days of work. I've always wanted a severed Darth Vader hand, but wasn't happy with any of the ones I'd seen. I initially planned to put a high end ROTJ saber in here, but ended up using a cheap (albeit less accurate) hilt that I could weather and damage.

The hand is hand made of wood and wire. All the fingers can be positioned individually. The hand is removable from the base, and the hilt is removable from the hand.

I'm considering doing a second one with more expensive parts. Either way, pretty happy with the results:

That is ****ing awesome! Well done!

Haha. Thank you sir. I need to get a nameplate whipped up, and find a place to display it!

It's fantastic. That's the epitome of something I didn't know I wanted until I saw one.

Very awesome! What, if anything, did you use for metallic paint? I've been getting into repainting toy sabers for a small "battled damaged" collection, and none of the chrome or aluminum paints I've so far used look quite right.

This is awesome!

That's awesome, I want one
Here's mine, got it from a member on RPF - it's Luke's hand as found years later on Tatooine:

I remember seeing that. Unique piece, and I love that it's a little dark for the Star Wars universe. Very cool.

Thanks. The wrist area had a ton on fine detail, which is why I went with such a simple base.

awesome!

Absolutely fantastic job sir . I love all the detail work in the wrist. It's awesome!

Well done dmpsk8! So much details. Expertly crafted and painted.

If this is your "cheap" version, can't wait to see what you do next. I think this looks phenomenal.
