Title: Dual Wielding
Post by: Sealyman on February 29, 2012, 05:33:45 AM
I am already addicted to UltraSabers and just wanted to ask what the best color to match with BR for dual wielding is for my next purchase? Also, if you have pics or links to pictures that would be awesome.

When i use to have a fire orange saber i would always duel wield it with my blazing red saber also preystone would be a good combo too. I found orange to be the perfect color combo for me personally, green and red = Christmas and yellow and red make me think of food like ketchup and mustard  :P and any blue saber colors seem to much of a contrast to red in my own opinion. Other colors that would go good with red in my opinion are any shade of violet amethyst. After all Darth Revan duel wielded  red and violet sabers 8)

Yellow. ;D
or
Orange.

I can take a few pictures.

I like to match them but it's usually best to go with a complimentary color.

Kham: That would be nice if it isn't too much trouble.
Big Boss: I do like the Red and Green and Red and Blue combos for sure.

Kham you can only match them because you own like three of every colour and at least 6 Yellows xD
But warm colours tend to complement one another better than contrasting colours

The best color to go with Red is Red.

Really appreciate it! I am pretty torn between VA or SY paired with BR. I have heard some bad reviews of the hue of VA that leaves much to be desired. Purple was always my favorite lightsaber color though.

Whatever they're currently using for the VA mix is actually quite perfect for a nice purple color IMO.  Plus if you get some Lee filters you can tweak it to where you like it - more blue or more red for instance.

For dual wielding I tend to like the same color (red and red) or "neighboring" colors.  For instance, Sentinel Yellow is made using red and green, so it looks nice, as do the other warm colors (Fire Orange, Pyrestone).  Violet Amethyst looks rather good too.

Bane's Heart or Dark Violet Amethyst  would look good too paired with Blazing Red.

I'd go with either VA or DVA personally. Purple might seem like a striking contrast to red in your mind's eye, but remember there's a lot of red in purple so they end up complimenting each other just as much. Plus I simply think it would look badass.

AS! goes with anything, and while i think it looks a touch bland on a full saber, it would look great as a shoto or off-hand weapon. also if you're not going to be DWing alot of the time then you can customise it to be any colour you like.

if however you simply don't want AS, i'd say FO or SY on this one. you want something that contrasts but not too starkly.
