Playing with underexposing and adjusting back to proper exposure with levels.  Sometimes it creates an interesting look.

It's gives a little more detail and is approximately the right color when not backlit and in dimmer light.  It looks more like the below when well lit though

Unfortunately, my tripod is ****, so I can't run with an f/22 like I'd like to.

It looks so good, I wouldn't want to build it.  If I did, it would be a totally clear acrylic case with no plate.  That thing looks killer, and I think the mint blue might look even better  :eek:

I regret not getting the orange plate, it would've been beautiful with Skidata caps.

I agree. The orange pcb is unfortunately hidden in the poker case under the plate and it's only noticeable from certain angles. And now you've given me more ideas to spend my money, are you happy  :-X

Where did you get Alps blanks in that profile? The only Alps blanks I've come across are the DSA ones from PMK

Ah I see, completely forgot about those. They only support 6u spacebar and 1.5u/1u modifiers right? No 1.25u available

Edit: NVM I'm dumb, the Matias product page says there's 1.25u. I was looking on Keyboardco's product page

Edit: NVM I'm dumb, the Matias product page says there's 1.25u. I was looking on Keyboardco's product page
The set includes 7x 1.25 mods, 2x 1.75 mods, and 4x 1.5 mods. It also includes 1 7u spacebar, 1 6.25u spacebar, and 1 5.5u spacebar. On my alps64 infinity I had to use a 6.25u spacebar. If youre familiar with the infinity layout you know that it is 1.5,1,1.5,6,1.5,1,1,1.5. But as you also may know, alps 6u spacebars are near impossible to find. so I used a 6.25 spacebar and 1.25 mods on either side of it. It works well, and doesnt look that bad. Another note about these caps is that it doesnt include a r3 caps lock without a window, and it doesnt include a r4 1.75  right shift. I used the 1.75 mods from the bottom row to replace these caps. It looks ok, and the profile isnt THAT different. Other than that it is a really nice set.
