Ahsoka Tano was Anakin Skywalker's Padawan. Discovered by Master Plo Koon, Ahsoka was a Togruta girl who was raised in the Jedi Temple. She graduated to Padawan at an early age, in part, as an effort by Master Yoda to teach her new Master, Anakin Skywalker, a greater sense of responsibility, but it was also necessitated by the Clone Wars. Regardless the reason for her advancement, Ahsoka remained eager, almost overly so, to prove herself worthy of her status as a Padawan.
As a result of her rigorous education, Ahsoka tended to play most situations closer to the book than did Anakin, but she quickly learned that sometimes there's no substitute for a healthy dose of Anakin's derring-do. Straddling the chasm between Anakin's passionate impulsiveness and Obi-Wan's staid deliberation, Ahsoka held much promise.

Just as the characters created for the exciting new cartoon serial The Clone Wars started out as a pencil sketches, so did the weapons they wield. Ahsoka's lightsaber was first sketched in all views, approved by Director Dave Filoni, and then passed along to the digital modelers to construct.
Depending on the scene and how large or small the lightsaber and/or characters appear in it, determines the level of detail built into each model. And so there exist different models with differing levels of detail. The computer only needs to build what the eye can see, and so using highly detailed models for every scene takes up valuable rendering time and makes no sense.
For our recreation of Ahsoka's lightsaber we were given high res renders and the original sketches from which we designed our replica. Accounting for the "real world" size of a lighstsaber as they appeared in the Star Wars movies, we scaled Ahsoka's saber to match and picked up the details she had copied from Anakin's and Obi-Wan's sabers, in tribute to her teachers.
