Hello,

I am curious about how GB runner design keycap set and render, are they all expert in Photoshop? Person like me who know nothing about Photoshop, how to make design? Is there dedicated software for keycap set design?

Thanks.

It's not Photoshop they do it in Cinema 4D and Maya etc there are probably more capable software people use to render key sets. Skill wise i would say modeling and knowing how to make materials for the objects you are creating. But what do i know i only messed a bit with Blender. There is probably someone else that knows better  :).

you can do everything in fusion 360 including rendering final image.

The rendering just takes a while on personal pc.
