I'm a geek!
I recently aquired a star wars light up Light Saber for $5 and spent the past hour giving it a custom paint job. I have never ever painted anything on my own outside of school projects. I had some silver and gold paint lying around from marking some heroscape figures. (So I can divide the 2 sets when I need to.) And I figured I'd just paint a lightsaber.
I'm not quite done. It is silver and black and I was gonna paint all the silver gold and paint some of the buttons on it silver. But some of the gold got sloppy and ran onto the black. So I may repaint the black as black or silver. Either that or try to use a dental pick to lift the runny paint. Also it looks a bit rough since the paint didn't take too well to the plastic or previous factory paint job. But as a first paint project it looks pretty neat.
