I have a client that wants a round cake with an upside down ship on top. Not sure if anyone is famillar with the band "Hedley" but she wants it to look like their album cover, ive never done this before. Any suggestion!!

Thanks!!

Do they prefer a 3d ship or a drawing on a cake.

How large of a cake?

Big Event Cake or just a simple cake? There's nice things you can do but time = $$ , so how complicated are you willing to get?

It's a cool theme but I need more information

I can't really suggest until I know the parameters of the job.
But here's something to think about

Ship could be made of fondant. Sails can be draped down the layers. Clouds can be airbrushed or fondant cutouts

I do a lot of graphic work with photoshop elements. It helps with scale and balance, and lets me think through a cake better then a sketch pad.
