Playstation 5 Controller Cake

Skill level: Intermediate

They may still be hard to get online, but the Playstation gaming system is a video game console near and dear to my heart. I have always liked the shape and design of the playstation controllers and was really excited when I got the chance to make this cake for a friend's son.

In this tutorial, you will learn how to sculpt and panel out every section of the controller. Provided printable template make getting the proportions right very easy, and I break down the logo, buttons and joysticks step-by-step. This cake comes together quickly and easily and is another great option you can offer for clients that have eSports parties or gaming events.
