You like to light things with your saber don't you

It's finally time for: Lightsaber VS HALO Energy Sword.

Actually, this isn't a real debate, but what is is why you never twist an energy sword in HALO. It would mean that a Spartan wouldn't get back up and rip your throat out, which Emile did at the end of Reach.

My guess is that the Plasma Sword works like a real blade (explains sharp edges, flat sides).

It would be near impossible to twist a sword shaped like that.

It's plasma held in place my a strong electromagnetic field. If it can handle a fast swipe, it should handle some level of twisting.

I'm talking more the physical strength that would be required.

When someone twists a normal sword (which is still VERY hard to do):
A) There is less vertical surface for resistance
B) There is a hilt to grab on to

B is the most important, as that allows the use of your back muscles. The design of the Plasma Sword would require you to use nothing but your forearm, which is one of the weaker muscle groups in the body.

You may have a point, yet I think it may be able to evaporate and then ionise the material it makes contact with, meaning that you'd only have the mass of the hilt to move, as the magnetic field would switch to the plasma made of dead person, meaning you'd move the thermal and electrical energy, yet not the matter.

Gunship based on the design of the fighter. I'm working on a Dropship right now.

My art coursework (not in its entirety... yet).

Note: it may not work perfectly, and most images are duplicated. The sizes range from A1 to A5.

Maybe this will be enough to bring back giorgakis.

the masks are looking good ^^ Good job

Took enough time to do them. They better be looking good.
