I did manage a few screencaps of the hilts, unfortunatelly Youtube did not have the 1080p version of the trailer available despite some videos which did advertise it. So I apologize for the somewhat poor quality of the screenshots.

It might be a trick of the light, but I like how the hilts look much more darker and how they're also thinner and less bulky than the ones from TOR.
I could probably do the actual models pretty easily myself, but I'm pants at trying to use materials and what not to make good renders. Most of the 3D -stuff I do are actually for various mods on different games so the textures I do for them tend to be built on what the various game engines support.
- Adjust the black part, where the activation-button is just before the emitter shield. Looking at the pictures they seem to be the same thickness, they are slightly thinner than the rest of the handle and there is a small groove between them.
- The hilt does have a black control box in exactly the same place as you had in your previous model (It just doesn't show well in the screen caps except in these --> [link] [link]). I think the top of the control box is supposed to be similar to what you see with Luke's ROTJ-hilts, only with a silver metal on black. There's no accurate pictures of it available
- The pommel also seems to have black rubbery studs in the raised areas around the groove, which are the same length as the grooves themselves. But those aren't necessarily needed as I think that this version of the pommel also looks good..
When this is finished it will definitely be on my favorites. You do a really good work
Ps. I'm going to drop a PM to Tom Hodges about the permission for his saber design (I was too tired to do it yesterday). I'll ask him to drop you a note as well if he allows it.
In the links I posted earlier you can see it in the one where Starkiller has his hand thrust forward as he's gripping that droid with the force. It's just visible near his pinky and ring -fingers. The other picture with the saberblade on also shows it, but it's not as accurate.
I think it's supposed to be the same size as the control box you had in these earlier versions (it seems to be in the right position as far as I can tell) but other than that, looking at the test version I'd say you've pretty much got the entire model spot on. The hilt looks pretty much exactly like it does in the screencaps. And it looks good
It'll definitely go to my favorites
