Hello. I assembled a new blade today on one of my stunt sabers. See how it looks like - pictures taken in full daylight:

Believe it or not, but there is NO electronics involved whatsoever! A friend of mine got a good lenght of reflective material -its the flash of the picture that makes the "instant rotoscoping" compare no-flash and with-flash: the blade alone, we see the polycarbonate tube on what I applied the reflective material. If anyone wants some, I am certain he could get some more in several colors... I know I had been looking around for this for a while, but directly from 3M or Avery they sell it by the truck ^_^ Anyway, for picture taking, I find it pretty interesting.

Johann: I don't know the name, he works in a lettering place. They refer to it as "the reflective ones" and they are made by 3M. I'll ask for the name.
The blue one I used on these pictures is the color used by firefighters in the city he's working. It is the same materials used for trucks and other for security letterings. It works good, but is about 10$ worth of material for one single blade :S
Jaryk:He currently have available blue, white and yellow. if you're interested, let me know via PM.

its not the Solas - it comes in WIDE rolls 2ft wide by 300ft I think, I believe its the same family, tough. Its in the scotchlight style.
We currently have some white and blue, and can manage to get orange (gold) one, my friend is working for something about the other colors. I know I want some green and purple seams very popular.

Thanks.
I tried it in the outdoors and in a photo studio and I can add that with omnipresent light, they aren't all that great. But for instand picture rotoscoping, they are cool.
