Description This is Portal-themed customized Xbox 360 controller with blue and orange lights, white trim, and painted Portal and Portal 2 logos. It is a fully functioning controller and was my personal controller for a few days.

Looks cool. You should use stencils in the future though. It would make the edges on the portal logos a bit more neat and clean.

I do use stencils. The problem is that because the surface of the controller is curved, the frisket film will never lay perfectly flat, so there's always at least a little overspray. I do the best I can to clean it up and make the lines crisp, though.

The lights are a little tricky, but if you wanted to mail me your controller it wouldn't be difficult for me to change the lights and send it back. Email me if you're interested.

Thanks, I'm glad you like it! And if you do end up doing something similar, let me know - I'd be excited to see it!

Thanks, glad you like it. That's always a risk you run with electronics, but if you're careful and do your research, it's totally doable!

The painting isn't as clean as I would like it to be, but the lights are fantastic.

It isn't as clean as I'd like it to be either, to be completely honest. The shape of the controller makes spray painting cleanly a bit difficult, though I'm always trying new things to try to get a better outcome.

This is cool. Too bad Microsoft dosn't know about this. They could see if Valve could let them come up with this design of the controller.

Microsoft is pretty stingy about their licensing and accessories as far as official things go, but they seem to be making more official controllers with game imagery on them these days (Gears of War, MW3, etc)

Sketchman147 In reply to matherite [2012-02-20 19:04:12 +0000 UTC]

But still, if they thought about it, maybe Valve can get Microsoft to consider some ideas for design. But, I know how you feel. I noticed the same thing about it.
