Okay, so i decided to put it in here.
I figured it neither fits into Brawl General Discussion nor in Brawl Media.
It doesn't fit into General Gaming as well, so here we go~



As you can see, this is a Shot of my GameCube Controller.
It resembles my Brawl Main, Pikachu.

It took me about 4,5hours to make it and i just wanted to show it off~
I did it together with a friend of mine, the yellow is just spraypaint and everything in black was painted on it with acrylcolors.
I jused a white Gamecube Controller, just because the yellow would look better on a white surface. You can see the original Nintendo logo through the yellow, which was planned to show that it is an original Cube Controller.

Unfortunately the color of the controlstick doesn't hold (because rubber is underneath, duh).
We knew it from the start that it would most likely not hold but we still put it on to try it.
Because of this i rarely use this controller, i play 1 or 2 matches to show it off but than i put it away.

Anyways, tell me how you like it.
I really love it because of the work i put in it and because i haven't seen a controller like that before ^^

That is the best custom controller I've seen, very nice. I'd be very proud of that if I made it, and you and your friend should be given a medal of awesomeness, or something.

VERY good work.

It looks great and you can tell alot of skill went into making this.

I would pay for a controller like this.

i think it would be to similar, not worth the work if you understand

i actually thought about lucario, he has those hornlike ears
the eyes would be problematik though, along with the whole concept of the pointy nose

maybe i would do it if it wouldnt be so expensive
(anybody want to buy a lucariocontroller? =F)

Just wondering, how much did it cost to make that? You just need sandpaper and spraypaint, right?

Sandpaper, spraypaint(7€), acryl colors(borrowed), screwdriver(2€), controller(15€)
dont forget that i need a controller to work on, because the white ones work the best (obviously)

Dude, I may be a bit late on this topic due to me just joining up tonight but that is so cool. Best Custom controller I have ever seen.
