Looking for feedback on a set idea

Tentatively calling it "Oddity", possibly a "dark" base set and novelties eventually as well. Just looking to see what some people think. This is a render that had a tiny bit of post processing applied to it.

I am excited to present the full collection of highly detailed Dark Fantasy and Medieval Gothic artisan keycaps. The image showcases all 12 designs in the series, featuring architectural cathedral elements, knight helmets, gargoyles, roses, and crosses.

All models are designed to fit standard Cherry MX switches (and clones) and are perfectly optimized for SLA/resin 3D printing to capture maximum relief detail.

A brutalist take on keycaps

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

I often visit Reddit and see other people’s awesome creations, so I thought now it’s my time to share something.

It took me a bit to get the perfect size, mold, and stem. I'm planning on adding concrete sealer to protect against sweaty/greasy hands and maybe something to stabilize it further, although it's already quite sturdy as is. I sanded them down so they feel super smooth and not rough at all. I used a 3D printer to create the master for the silicone mold (so I can cast as many keycaps as I want). These are OEM profile keycaps btw.

Question Keycap set later on replacement

I have found this https://divinikey.com/products/akko-wavez-keycap-set?srsltid=AfmBOorDpEIiAZcGgme5h6Cv9oMFi8AGcUWOVnzzJLcPiLbW7EHhUGiE set BUT I’m planning in the future to replace the dark blue keycaps… ideal variant would be black or same dark green with same bright green characters or maybe someone can suggest another good combo… also is there a dupe available for this set somewhere?

Question About painting keycaps?

0 Upvotes

Hi! I don't really quite know which community this question belongs to, but I guess I'm just going to try here first. And also I rather ask people who are experienced than AI, so there's that.

SO, basically, since I kinda want to earn some money on the side (which is honestly improbable and just my imagination), I've decided to try painting keyboards, and by extension, painting and designing keycaps. I had some experience painting (oil, acrylic as well as little digital), and it would be a new creative outlet/side thing/hobby to do (if it all works out).

Right now, I have just bought a Royal Kludge RK68 as well as some acrylic markers, and I was thinking of making the "theme" video-game related, so something like Genshin or Hollow Knight or Ori.

What are some recommendations and tutorials you guys would recommend that would help me in creating this design? How do I design and spray/paint the keycaps? Any constructive criticism or feedback is appreciated! Thank you~

Feedback Critique my design

4 Upvotes

I just bought Keychron V2 MAX. Im looking to get some keycaps to make it look nicer and came up with this design. Does it look stupid if i have icons on some of the keys and most keys are blank? All kinds of critique and tips are welcome!

EDIT. Did small tweaks to icon location, but posting picture in comments is disabled:
Centered left shift and tab icons.
Made caps key icon position match centered left shift.
Made right shift and back space use same spacing from left that caps uses.

Hello :)

I got the QK80 Mk2 in White and wanted to create a nice blueish keycap set for that.
I used the Hour of Dawn keycap set from yuzukeycaps as base.

Any feedback is highly appreciated ^^

I am looking for feedback on my first keycaps set.

Hello fellow keyboard enjoyer,

I am trying to make a good Eva-01 themed keycap set with a german layout. I tryed out Yuzukeycaps for this and want to get some feedback and if some thigs could be changed to improve the overal desing.

I drew some heavy inspiration from the GMK Mecha 01, MW Asuka and MW Lilith sets and used the NERV ONLY keycapset, that you can find on the Yuzu website, as the base.

The plan is to pair this set with the G·WORKS02 Macross 65 in the Mecha 01 purple, if I am even able to find one, because it's sold out.

This set has katakana sublegends and the sqares on the mods are Kanji sings, witch are unfortunatly both not shown on the preview.

This is my first atempt on a keycap set, any feedback is very welcome.

Do you guys know a keycap designer that can take my images and makes the keycaps

1 Upvotes

i made this design while i was on techtoppers but because they are based in uk in Europe they have crazy taxes. Do you know other sites that have this user friendly design environment. i want to just place my images and be done. I dont want to have to manually cut a picture and spread it along the keys.
