[IC] The Spartan Keycap sets + Spartan M98 keyboard kit | 7/6/2023 Updated

[keybay.tech]

UPDATES: 07/06/2023

There are some tester keycaps. We have completed some color adjustments and injected gold glitters into the keycap. We hope this keycap will appear more sophisticated, appearing dark gery from a distance but revealing sparkling gold glitter upon close inspection.




In this Collection, we will be launching themed products including:
Keycap set, Keyboard kit, Coiled cables and desk mat.

We hope you will enjoy our magnum opus, the pinnacle of our year-long creation:

Keycap production:

For this set of keycaps, we have employed the latest manufacturing technologies, using WDA profile. You may not be very familiar with WDA keycaps, but rest assured that they meet the highest standards in terms of feel, craftsmanship, and details. Most importantly, the new manufacturing process aligns perfectly with my design intentions, and the addition of gold accents brings vibrancy and liveliness to the artwork. (Please refer to the following text for more details on WDA profile and the manufacturing process.)

During the keycap production, I aimed to create ABS keycaps with a stunning gold flake injection molding technique. Despite the increased cost, I believe every effort is worthwhile to enhance the quality and aesthetics of the artwork. I am confident that you will be amazed by the keycaps I have designed.

As a total war enjoyer, some comments:

1. neither the xiphos nor the kopis has such a broad blade; greek blades are more simply curved and generally do not look like that, and do not have such a complex hilt.

2. while Athena may be one of the patrons of Sparta, her image (and especially owl symbol) is likely more closely associated with Athens. I am also not sure whether greek shield art usually comes in that style.

3. I generally think it is inadvisable to conflate the movie Sparta with actual Sparta - while the latter is depicted historically, the former may not be.

4. Probably better to have Greek than English on novelties, if any at all.
