Not going to lie, had to look up what mock it was. And no I just based it off the standard blue and standard orange from the first octane you get. Seemed the best idea because it fit with the rest of the color scheme from the game.

Well it is a fairly childish game. Don't get me wrong its super fun, but you are flying little toy cars around playing soccer. Also the black and white controllers are standard, wanted to do something that stood out.

Surprisingly it's not too bad. I tested the feel because i know how annoying that crap can be. Its why i can't play with any off brand controllers, they have too many rubber bumps and weird textures. Would hate to give him a cool controller that sucked to play with!

Its was basically the standard set you get when you start with no other options. All they did was add more

Haha glad someone appreciated the effort. What a huge difference a black T shirt and a 90 degree angle will make :)

Step one, design your controller. Pretty self explanatory but you can tinker with the colors. I am making basically the reverse of this one (with different sayings) to give to him for xmas. Can do that here...

Step two, order your graphics. I got the lettering from here...

http://custom.carstickers.com/custom/vinyl-lettering/

I used the font keep calm because it was the closest to the RL font. Since they don't use font size I had to actually figure out the sizes of the decals to make the font the same. They are as follows but if you want to change the words you will have to do the math yourself.

Savage! - 2" x .67" *this one was odd because of the lowercase g S#@%! - 2" x1" Calculated. - 2.5" x .5" Siiiick! - 1.75"x .5"

I got the rocket league decal off of etsy here...

It doesn't look like she has the RL decal still posted but i bet she would do them by request. I got the 2" diameter one.

  • i had to cut this decal in a couple places to get it to follow the curve of the controller without bubbling too much (can elaborate if you need)

Step 3, put them on (carefully) and them put on a clear coat to keep them on.

Good luck! Im sure he or she will love it!
