A gal wants me to make a 3-D Nemo Cake and I haven't a clue where to start. I have the Wilton egg pan and thought that might work? Any suggestions?

I used a square tin to make the one on my photo's! I cut the square in half and stacked it then slightly rounded the front with a knife then cut two triangle shapes of each side of the back which I turned around and added to the back as the tail.

This is really hard to put into words so I will go draw up a diagram and post here soon!

i think it is very easy to carve nemo from egg shape pan. The extra from the egg shape that you carve off from the sides and botom to get the body and face shape can be used for the tale part as extension.
Are you covering it with fondant or buttercream? if with fondant i have one for you as an example in my galleries if you want to look

Thanks so much everyone! Love you all! I think I will cover in fondant but the buttercream one Doug gave me looks good too!
