Title: I'm a beginner and want to build a moon themed keyboard
Post by: Autumn on Mon, 04 January 2021, 03:05:16
Hello everyone! I want to build a custom keyboard soon and the theme is moon cuz I think it's clean and cool or anything related to space. I have been thinking of grey keycaps and a special esc keycap with GK61X black or white. I don't have many ideas so I want more suggestions about different cool clean keycaps that fit the moon theme. I also want to know more special keycap since I only know moon landing for my esc key. I would like to hear any suggestions for me, thank you! (Sorry for my English I lived in Hong Kong)

The GB has finished already but the keycaps haven't been shipped yet but, I think GMK apollo might be up your alley.
Maybe you can find them somewhere once everything has been shipped but sadly, the GB is already over.

Good luck!

2 ended GB of lunar themed keysets come to mind:
- GMK Apollo (as said earlier).
- GMK Lunar.

There is also Oblotzky GMK ASCII, not lunar themed but nice grey keycaps (same gray used as in GMK lunar).

Unfortunately the solution now is the after market or potential extras (Oblotzky had base extras some time ago in its website).

The Moon you say? Someone has already thought of it (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=108522.0).

It's really pretty! Do dwarves usually proceed in gb or in RAFFLE?

Hmm - I swear when I linked it I saw a big green "Available!" and now it shows out of stock. I'm actually not sure how it works. It's likely a raffle sale.

Not sure if this is what you're looking for but there's a cute moon case called Nemui by Bachoo.

If you need a wrist rest to go with the keyboard, this one comes to mind :)
