Halo Warthog Cake

This was a grooms cake for a teacher at Teresa's old school. It is the vehicle from the Halo game. I'm not going to go into detail, it's too exhausting. I will tell you I baked 2 8x8 square cakes, and 3 15x11 cakes - 8 cake mixes - yes, I use cake mixes. I did that twice. I had to know it was going to be sturdy enough for the day of, so I made it twice :) I started decorating it this morning at 9am and didn't finish until 1:45pm

So here it is, I drew the Halo symbol in the corner of the cake board.

I will be honest, it didn't turn out how I had hoped. There were things I had to rush, because other things didn't go as smooth as they should have. But over all, I think it came out nice and I'm sure the groom recognized it and appreciated that his bride wanted to surprise him with this cake. Plus, I was pretty excited to be part of such a special event.
