- Today I'm painting/modding an Xbox 360 controller. I am super happy with this makeover, and really happy that I made this for myself. Right now I really feel like doing more makeovers/custom mods of consoles or controllers. If you have any suggestions for what to make, leave it in the comments!

The white buttons have arrived! I'm just in love with it now instagram.com/p/Bb4p5rjlkLt/?taken-by=natural.nerd
First!! xD
I like the look with white buttons but i think that you should have left A,B,X,Y buttons original ( I still love it ❤ )
It's terrible
I'm trying to build up my own channel and watching how you two have grown from your older videos is helping me to keep going, you guys are awesome I love your channel! 😁
Defitintly my favorite 360 controller paint job I have seen.
What do you think I should paint/mod next?
Natural Nerd would be cool if you mod/paint a new xbox one controller. Btw what clear coat are you using?
Natural Nerd 872 :D
I'd love to see a whole new controller made by creating a 2 part mold for the top and another for the bottom, using alumilite resin and pearlex to create a swirly transparent effect in the end could probably be done without too much difficulty using a slush casting method, though it'd require a lot of careful cleanup later. Would be even more cool to create new buttons with an LED inside each of them. I can see how that might be a little overly complex though, what with trying to create . How about making a new custom casing for your xbox? Something to sort-of match your new controller paint scheme but looking completely unlike an xbox(ie. something more rectangular and less organic looking with EL strips as decoration)?
If you have a Wii U laying around that could make for an interesting mod job. Or like GreatSmithanon said a companion paint job for the controller's console could be cool too.
Make the boring black ps3 look cool and modern again! :D
After watching quite a few of your newest videos I started watching everything on your channel in chronological order, and transitioning from voice over to in camera speaking was absolutely great idea. No I feel like I watch proper Nerdforge. :D
very nice! Could a Keyboard be done like this? I imagine the sanding part might be problematic!
A keyboard would be amazing :D
It can be done to a keyboard pretty easily. If you start out with "Das Keyboard" you have blank keys to work with. sand the keys down the same as anything else, and you can even put your own custom font on all the keycaps if you know what you're doing. I've also seen people make keycaps out of typewriter keys, cast resin, cast aluminum, cast copper, the ends of hex bolts, buttons sunk in resin, all kinds of neat things.
The color choice and spatter design were on point!!!
Fantastic work, girl! It turned out awesome!
Just discovered this channel and I'm 100% subscribing. Good work👍
wow, amazing. Looks so nice.
Also does a really good job at making this controller
This looks amazing great job
So very Sweet, Thank You
I did the same think to my razer saberthooth and the sanding process was soooooooooooo sloooooooow
You guys have a new subscriber!
That's so cool! I need to do that to some controllers! I'll do one that is pink, orange, and yellow. and the other green, blue, and purple.
But, I would use a pattern for that.
Niceeeee some flame effects can be great for the next project like that
Love your cat!
looks shiny and retro, good job. as far as I saw you have the skill and courage to do somehow invasive mods. i usually do mods on PC case and the inside of cars so i appreciate intuitive mods, maybe you can do some mods on headphones earcushins and PC cases, i'm sure those would be fun.
Ayyyyy! Instructables shirttttt!
Hard scar 😳
Nice mod!
Thank you soo much I finally found a CZcamsd that takes the controller apart
I want to make a same one for my niece, it looks AWESOME!
That turned out really nice, have you ever tried to dip before? I was thinking of doing it to a old ps3 controller I had laying around for test, I’ve seen videos on how to make a diy dip tank and using oil based spray paint make your own designs as well or you can order bad ass designs online as well
I haven't tried that! Looks really interesting
Love this!
Haha nice work can you try to add paddles on the back of the controller?
Edit: this may be the best controller makeover I've ever seen, very nice technique with the brush splatter :)
Great job on the controller and all the other content you put on here. Question - Which songs did you use from the EpidemicSound to make these videos? I really enjoyed them and would like to add them to my playlist.
your cat is so cute ^^
I think an old play station one portable system that had the tv included would be a really interesting project and they're relatively cheap on eBay too.
What kind of paint do you use? Can you use acrylic paint with a brush to do designs? Would it hold over time? Can you use any paint and just clear coat it to make it last?
That looks awsome! How about modding the Xbox itself? =)
Hi, what kind of airbrush do you use and where did you bought it?
Doodle on a controller with all kinds of game characters!
This looks really fun. I'd like to do this but I don't have the tools necessary. Would I get similar results with spray paint or a cheap airbrush? Not trying to invest a whole lot into this cause I only have a limited amount of controllers to mod.
Nice mod
also if you use an item all the time use a ceramic car auto varnish. its more a tough and hard.
Looks great, only down side of glossy controllers is that my hands sweat a bit during gaming
Nerdforge I have a question could you do the same thing but with the console itself and if so how much of a challenge would it be compared to the controller?
I love the white Nutt steaks
Now I want to do this to my PlayStation controllers
Love your art and amazing content!
I have a question, which you don't need to answer due to personal stuff ofcourse, i was just wondering, whats the huge scar from on your left arm at 2:04?
Why didn’t you use acidtone or nail polish remover for the manufacture coat
what kind of colors did you choose ?
If I was you I will make both like at the tips one side would be dark green and it gets lighter and lighter towards the middle in the middle is a cross-section between light green and light blue and starts to turn light blue always to dark blue the tip would be dark blue and do it from left to right the left would be the dark green tip in the right would be the dark blue tip
could you try painting a pair of joycons or a keyboard next?
you can go in a car pain shop and order a spray varnish with catalyte in it with the life of 24 to 48 hours.
I enjoyed this fun not so to the point (I did this then I did that) thing you did here. :D it made all the difference from other videos cause now they know sanding does take a while xD and I'm not the one for modding videos but you kept me here with the humor so good job cute Kitty by the way.
Thanks for the awesome comment Conner :D
:D this channel is very unique, and you guys are doing a great job with the content, I'm here to support and provide some feedback whenever I can :)
What airbrush are you using?
can you go a little but more in detail about the whole color air brush process please i really want to learn how to effectively paint items like controllers and things like that please please im begging you !!
What did you mix in with the paint?
Reducer/thinner. With water based colors you'd use water :)
Would you be able to do a ps4 controller or a tv remote
what is it that transparent liquid that you add to the color?
Reducer/thinner! If its a water based color its usually only water :)
what do you where on your ears or more like in your ears. are those supps to be earings???????

"I'm going to keep all my spare parts ...", I don't want to disappoint you, but I don't think there are any parts I that controller that can be spared and used elsewhere. I think the controller needs all it's parts back in it to work.
I think you misunderstand, it got all its parts back! Had to store the screws somewhere while working on the controller
Natural Nerd Don't get me wrong, I know what you meant. You meant "loose parts" or "small parts", but less than a minute into the video you called them "spare parts".
Oh ok! Yes I know I said the wrong word :)
Videos needs more cat interruptions
3:21 That's what she said.
How well does the paint/clear hold up over time?
With the clear coat it's very durable! It just needs to cure properly first. A gamecube controller I did shows no signs of wear and tear yet, after 6 months of intense super smash playing
Natural Nerd Yes. with use and wear.
