I took a short break to make this. Still a lot of work to do, and I really haven't done any textures yet, just slapped a metal texture on it.

Riskmandel: I use a custom light setup that I made. It basically has 5 spotlights in it, one from each side and one from the top. If they all focus at 1 spot, you get what my renders look like. For the black background, I just made a very large white ground plane. As the plane gets further away from the lights, it gets darker, then I have a black camera background that it fades into. I hope that makes sense...ask any questions if you have them.

Thanks for the comments. Here's a closer up render...not much is new with the model.

 

Mr. Jage: No I didn't....I was looking at it and it SEEMS like their method only makes the blade look good from one angle? I could be wrong.... Anyway, I made this just by messing around with ambience, falloff, and glow. I'm not completely happy with it, but I can always mess with the final image in Photoshop.

OH MY RELIGIOUS LEADER, that's a fine saber!! :o So well crafted... More than good enough for a Jedi Master. Could you pleeeaaaase spoil us with a wireframe?

 

And about the theforce.net-saber, the only angle it doesn't look good from(that I've noticed) is a 180 degree turn of what you posted in your link, because that makes it look rather plastic-like.
