yo i got a question, what version of gimp are you using?
July 19th, 2009 - 00:46
Yeah when you use the pen tool to cut out the object or saber just make it thicker or a litle bigger than the object. =] and follow the same steps

Is there a way to make the saber more thick? it’s a little thin

thats sick, the reason i think it may look bad is the dim lighting and possibly the background color.
