I have decided to make the cake from Portal, as a joke for one of my friends.
I started out with the paper model (thanks Bevbor). Here it is resined on the outside, and fiberglassed on the inside:
To get the right texture on the cake, I decided to use actual pecans. I also had some roof patch leftover, so I decided to use that as "icing", and then put the pecans over it.
I let the cake dry over night, and then I sprayed a few coats of paint, and then a few layers of polyurethane, so that the nuts won't fall off:
I plan on letting the polyurethane dry completely over the weekend, and then I will paint it, and add the extra details.
Stay tuned...
