Hidden Dragon Menace

The sister saber in the pair of Menace hilts by @sithlordsabers. This time, it’s the Hidden Dragon Menace, similarly double-etched and hand-painted by @shadowcrestsabers and Mark Carico respectively. In this Exhibit, the bare-etched and fully hand-painted versions are visible side-by-side so you can enjoy the true beauty of the transformation from bare hilt to art piece.

This design features an intricately double acid-etched dragon bursting through the clouds above the raging waves of an ocean. The fins of the saber are patterned with a swirling cloud and wave design, while the pommel features koi in the water, reminiscent of the calligraphy on parchment style of the pair. The painstakingly hand-painted saber reveals a fiery scaled dragon with a 3D textured effect. Truly another example of a saber turned art piece.
