Awesome sculpt. I feel like you've really managed to get a different take on skulls. Diggin' the doo.

Those look great! :thumb: I know it's more challenging to make, but I wonder what it would look like with a different hair color than the skull.

I generally hate all keycaps. Keycaps are for poofs. Real men touchtype on stems. Non-functional artisans are awesome, I use them for the ESC key ... escape is for cowards anyways, real men go frontal assault.

My cap arrived yesterday (kinda forgot about posting about it)
Quick pic(photato, I know):


The quality is really good actually, with a few pinholes on the backside, but everything works fine and sits nicely. I really like it, thank you gadzkun.

I was so confused for a moment there - "I've finished sculpting" followed by a pic that looks anything but finished :))

The finished version looks great though, especially with the doubleshot everything.  Will be watching this thread!
