Here is a customizable saber hilt concept using Luke Skywalker's hilt as a base.
From MaceMadunusus:
I usually don't do hilts, but I decided to do something different for a day.
There is something particularly special about this hilt. I designed it to test some of our customization systems that we will be implementing in the future as well as to use it as an early concept. This is my first hilt ever and isn't the best but its good enough for a concept!
The material is also provided in this picture set, and here are some more details below on that specific picture:
This also gives you a small hint at how optimized this actually is. If you look closely in the material each section of the texture uses one channel in the diffuse texture instead of using separate textures or even a separate mask texture to separate everything. Doing so reduces texture calls and memory usage. The diffuse channels alpha also contains the specular map. The normal maps alpha contains the emissive/glow image as well. So instead of at a minimum 4 texture calls there is 2.
