DIY Spiderman PS5 controller | Tips for how to

[@GGSNP]

Very nice work! Do you take commissions for custom controllers?

[@TesGon]

Thats some next lvl of art. So proud of this work. P.S As usually suggesting you try Horizon Zero dawn theme...

[@EJTechandDIY]

Glad you like it, Yes was thinking about that I have been so busy that have not got the change to start playing Forbidden West.

[@DefinityDraw]

I love your controllers! How do you make your stencils?

[@EJTechandDIY]

Amazing work bud. Quality speak through teach step. Question: I want to get into air brush as spray paint just lacks the control and detail abilities. Does it smell? Can I air brush in the house or is it an outside / garage activity?

[@EJTechandDIY]

Thank you so much papa Gleb, I use my Airbrush inside with no issues and if you stick to water base paint like Vallejo or Createx there will be no smell. I will recommend you a spray booth just because of the paint dust. The paint is not toxic but I still use a mask just to be sure.

[@PapaGleb]

@@EJTechandDIY Thanks much for your reply. Good to know and yes I will be prepared for over spray.

[@disturbedtheinsanity]

What kind of mask should you use for airbrushing?

[@lightzicustoms8053]

Awesome video as always! I have one question, do you sand your controllers with just regular sandpaper? Or do you use something different to sand down the curved surfaces?

[@EJTechandDIY]

Thank you glad you like it, I use regular sandpaper to sand everything.

[@lightzicustoms8053]

@@EJTechandDIY Awesome thanks for the answer! Are you using vallejo clear coat or 2k clear?

[@codemanmodz9218]

Steal wool works best

[@aditesto7918]

Hey i love your work !! Is there a way to airbrush a soft touch clear coat ? Wich feels like velvet/gummi

[@damianleonel4528]

bro I love your art! You and Berta are my pillars to follow! I wanted to ask you a question without obligation... Is the varnish that you apply before placing the stencils a water-based varnish? And another query that was if the varnish that you put on the last one could be one that is not aerosol? Thinner-based type? Or would it spoil the model by being thinner and water-based paints?

[@CyborKat]

Do you take custom requests?

[@disturbedtheinsanity]

These are incredible!! What do you use for the molds?

[@wyattschannel2161]

This is so cool

[@TimidTyTy]

Great video! I have a question if you don’t mind. When airbrushing, is there some type of paper or object I can put on my desk to protect it from the paint?

[@EJTechandDIY]

Thank you, If you want something to project your desk I recommend you to get clear vinyl or vinyl from any color you will like. I actually builded a station with acrylic to paint on.

[@TimidTyTy]

@@EJTechandDIY thank you so much!

[@EJTechandDIY]

Happy to help, good luck with your projects

[@chrissanchez352]

Amazing work! So you add a clear coat BEFORE your stencils? Also, I noticed you said in another comment that you airbrush your clear coat on, but saw that you use the 2k sealer. So do you just spray it from the van into your airbrush?

[@EJTechandDIY]

The 2k varnish is to finish the controller and protect the paint job

[@joeymacmods]

What a great controller! I really want to get into airbrushing now, it looks so much better than canned paint! Do you airbrush the clear coat on too?

[@EJTechandDIY]

Indeed, with an airbrush the feel of the controller is amazing, for the clear coat I recommend you to get 1K MAX or even better 2K MAX clear varnish. good luck on your projects

[@xxhollowkidxx2284]

Question?... what type of vinyl are you using?

[@bulldog1010123]

How did you get the Sony labels on the back of the controller after painting? Did you use water slides or did you take the back shell from a black controller?

[@genesis7748]

Bro you inspire me to make more customs, great work! I have a question if you dont mind. Does 1k clear last a long time? I am planning to sell my customs and 2k is a bit expensive in my country. Please let me know thanks!

[@genesis7748]

Also one more question, can I use UV resin instead of 1 to 1 resin to make the buttons? Thanks!

[@EJTechandDIY]

Happy to have inspired you to make your controllers, I have been using mine with 1K for around a year with no issues, what you can also do is offer the 2k coat for an extra cost.

[@EJTechandDIY]

I think you will be able to do it if you get clear silicone and a good UV light.

[@brandonemmanuel4994]

Hi ej do you know what product I can use to make the rubber on the thumb sticks be any chance thank yoi

[@EJTechandDIY]

I wanted to try and test Polyurethane rubbers but i have no done so yet, I’m not sure if it will work.

[@jeanlouissaint96]

How do you hold the stencils together I have a cricut. Do you use tape or something else

[@brandonemmanuel4994]

Hi you are actually a legend i you need to shoot for the stars with these this is art creativity is really rare. I was wondering if I can buy the files for the buttons x y o Square things you painted is there any where I can contact you

[@EJTechandDIY]

Thank you so much, you can send me an email at [e-mail]

[@brandonemmanuel4994]

Hi EJ I’ve sent you an email regarding the symbols

[@נמרודחיימוב-ל5ת]

How do you make the stickers?

[@EJTechandDIY]

Hello there, I have a plotter machine to cut the stencil from vinyl, the one that I have is called Silhouette Cameo 4.

[@robertbartley283]

awesome controller! quick question. im trying to use vinyl stencils that i cut with my cricut, but the vinyl keeps pulling the paint off even after i use primer and a clear coat. any recommendations to stop this from happening?

[@JD321k]

He mentioned in another video that you want to remove the stencil before the paint has fully dried or it will peel off with the stencil, don't know if that helps but thought I'd let you know

[@leelomas321]

Did you airbrush the 1k max on or spray it straight out of the can?

[@EJTechandDIY]

1k max was spray from the can

[@spockmrssen7756]

do you make the ps buttons with the 3d printed x circle etc... for sale? i kinda like more the more chubby and rounded this look :( edit: i saw that you, do but can u do a custom combination? like i would like to order a white buttons and a black background and viceversa

[@EJTechandDIY]

Yes I do, send me an email with your custom request to [e-mail]

[@miker13]

Hi I'm a big fan of your work but quick question that may need a legal expert to explain: Have you experienced any copyright issues with selling your creations? I can totally understand that using company logos without permission could lead to trouble but what if you're using same brand logos on the items being customised? For example, if you airbrush 'Sony' onto a Sony controller and list it for sale online. Perhaps the cyberpunk controller you made may be acceptable since that game is available for the PS5. I suppose what I'm asking here is that since you're not mixing a completely unassociated brand with the item being customised is there anything within copyright law that makes an allowance for this?

[@natalyarichardson2140]

What compressor do you recommend to use with the airbrush?

[@codemanmodz9218]

Any

[@25CHIVES]

Hey EJ, not sure you remember me asking questions in the past. But hope your doing well. I still have a lot I could pick your brain on.

[@EJTechandDIY]

I do remember you, if you have any questions let me know.

[@25CHIVES]

@@EJTechandDIY I just thought about something to ask. How important would you say a pressure pot is for making the buttons? I have a cheaply made one. And not sure if I should invest more. Is there any you suggest? Always great talking to you.

[@EJTechandDIY]

@@25CHIVES For the buttons is a 100% most have, Make sure you get a good one because remember you are dealing with pressure and it can be dangerous.

[@25CHIVES]

@@EJTechandDIY Got it. Also how do you recommend going about filling your molds with epoxy? I have noticed resin dries in my needles tube after injecting. And then I have a to use a new one. It seems really wasteful. Also if you'd like to do DM, let me know. Not sure how to go about it without everyone getting your info.

[@EJTechandDIY]

No worries I'm happy to share with everyone, to clean the needle I have a small container with IPA 3 or 4 passes inside the tube and the needle will be ready to go for the next time you need it.

[@coolguy91735]

Hi EJ, I love your work and I had a couple questions. When using stencils, I see that you put a clear tape over top so that they stay in place. Do you have a preference of tape? I was also wondering if you have any issues with your resin adhering to the clear tops that you made out of UV resin. I know some people can be really rough on their buttons, and UV resin isn't the strongest. Do you ever find that they come apart? Or warp? Also what is the resin that you use for the second half of the buttons? Lastly, do you have any plans on showing your clear coating process? I'm having a bit of trouble myself when I am doing the top coat of 2k, and I would love to see how someone else does it.

[@EJTechandDIY]

Hi, the uv resin is not in contact with the outside, the uv resin is only used to keep the buttons logos in place. I actually use urethane resin for the buttons. About the clear coat what issues are you having with it?
