I'm in for a Nuka Cola cap, heh. A color option could be to match the red/white theme of Nuka Cola, perhaps use the same red from the Rad Hard GB (set 4):http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=62913.0

I totally approve of a light blue+GID cap, and would put money in someone's possession for one. (Attachment Link) And, provided it's -not- copyrighted and okay to print, the Nuka Cola cap would be pretty classy! (Attachment Link)
could this possibly be available in a spacebar (the nuka-cola one)?

The Vault cap? I got it right from the original cap that zero YOU made, just remade it in new colors. And I got the nuka cola logo off the googs. x3

I was just curious about the Nuka Cola one. Not sure what the 'official' logo looks like. I am also not sure when to strike with the next GB either. People are just now getting their Vault 13 and Nuclear Data sets...
While I think the GID on blue looks more tasteful, I've got a horrible weakness for full-GID caps and I want that second version pretty badly.

It's just different types of injection molding, as far as I know.And I guess you might need a mill if you're making your own molds.
Show ImageDon't know what you think for the "rusted" cap, there are so many colors of rust that you could choose from, but I went with a reddish (iron oxide) dull color and a dull gold to contrast pleasantly. Browns and beiges kinda look really boring with the red.
In my opinion, since a nuka cola keycap has never been done, the first time aught to be with iconic red/white.
I'm not deeply versed in the history of awesome caps, I had no idea that one had been done!And yeah, there are more baby-blue colors, but I picked one that landed somewhere between the navy color of the Vault resident uniform and the radioactive blue of a Quantum bottle.The statue of liberty's patina is copper oxide, so... a faded blue-green for the body, and a coppery orange for the legend?

That sounds exciting! I can't wait to see mock-ups of all these things. (And if you want help making said mock-ups, you can always PM me! )
What do you mean PC keycap?
Quote from: mogo on Mon, 10 November 2014, 16:40:15What do you mean PC keycap?PolyCarbonate! The coolest clearest most totally awesome substance by which keycaps are made! It would totally have that Glowing Bottle effect, I think.

In Fallout 3 and F:NV you access the Pip-Boy with the Tab key. Would it be cool to have a Tab key that said Pip-Boy? I'm not sure if that would just be annoying or not...
I'm not sure why this didn't occur to me before, but how about the logos of the different factions in the game? Brotherhood of Steel, Enclave, NCR, Ceaser's Legion, etc. They all have a smart little logo, along with lots of the smaller groups, companies and locations.Also, it looks like you responded to my other post while I was editing it. Any way to get the 12 teeth on the vault logos, or can't SP do details that fine?
Show ImageSexy.
Voted! Hope this becomes a reality!
Is it just me or do the Nuka Cola legends look a little rough on PMK?
Work PC. I think it's just from my browser resampling the image. I opened the full size mock-up and they look OK.http://www.pimpmykeyboard.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/ParentMockup1.png (Warning: LARGE)Still not as sharp this, but good enough for key caps.Show Image

I had to widen many of the gaps and loops in the letters (like in the "a", "l", and "o" characters) and I completely opened the "k" character because it looked horrible when I tried to inflate the loop to the minimum diameter. They need a certain amount of gap because of how ABS shrinks when it sets and cures. We also had to thicken all the lines because, again, if the letters were too thin they'd shrink and split (or something like that). All the work was done in illustrator, so it is vector work, not raster, and I think it'll look fine as a finished product.

I got a Nuka-Cola spacebar. So I need this!
I'd be in if it were a DSA set, without hesitation. I also suggest you to offer it as a child set in some of the upcoming SA full sets.

So ready for this to happen
will we be seeing the child buys?
I added 4 total sets and shipping is $15. I hope that's not the actual shipping cost for about 13 keycaps.

Bob, the stand-in for Melissa, responded to my inquiry confirming that the shipping estimate will be the actual shipping and handling charge. I'm not willing to pay $3-4 shipping per child deal so I'm sticking with the main set. This might mean the child deals are not likely to make it through.

Should I ask?A disclaimer has now been added to each child deal on PMK. SP will work with the shipping on the child deals if you buy multiples and request it.
I'm really interested in the parent set, Irradiated vault set and the Nuclear data green set, however I just wondered where I request a refund for the duplicate shipping cost, and how big of an order I'd have to make to get a refund?
Doesn't PMK recalculate the shipping after the drop ends? They have to adjust pricing based on the final order quantity (tiers) anyway, so you're getting a new (different) invoice in the end regardless. Much easier to tack on the actual shipping amount to that. I think what they've done in the GB is put a base shipping price on each parent & child deal so that if people opt to buy only 1 kit (like just the irradiated vaults, for instance) they still get a minimum shipping price on their order so they don't get a shockingly higher invoice after it closes.Basically what I'm saying is that the money PMK reserves when you place your order is rarely what you're actually invoiced/billed for after the GB closes.
Thanks for your support Beltet! More support makes Zero want to design more caps!
Ordered the glow in the dark. Super psyched on my first "specialty" keycap.
GB was a huge success. There will be a Series III, bet on it...in the meantime I am cooking up some other designs in the dungeon. Stay tuned
anyone heard anything about shipping yet? they said late february but I haven't gotten anything from stamps. Last time I ordered something from PMK they didn't send me anything so I dunno if it's just that again or if they haven't shipped yet.Also, next time I'm getting Nuclear Data green and orange, I didn't expect to have the set by now, )

I was actually trying to hunt down some of your Series II keycaps because I think that they'd go great with the upcoming SA Jukebox set. Perhaps you can include keycaps that would match the SA Jukebox set when you do the Series III
