Sooo, actually, I've technically completed my 30 key challenge already because if I count the sushkeys (which I haven't so far), that brings me to 25. And then I have a couple of keys (at least 4) that I have finished but haven't shown because they are meant to be gifts to peeps and I didn't want to spoil the surprise by posting it here. And I have one more that I didn't realize I didn't post here.
So, I will count the sushkeys as keys
#21-25.
Key #26Hamburger key!
Heh. It's also a little fat but fits on my keyboard that have the 'floating keys' type feel. If I were to remake it again, I would definitely try and make it less protruding.
For keys
#27-30, I first need to gather all my keys, take more pics, before I start sending them out. Once I know that the recipient has received the keycap, I will post pics
Woohoo!
I MADE IT. Granted, this last stretch was not as exciting but I had drawn out this challenge for too long. I didn't really account for personal life stuff to get in the way and man, coming up with designs are hard! Especially since there was this pressure that every key I made had to be better than the last (probably self imposed pressure). But yeah I really had fun doing it and learned more about using clay for designs. Big thanks to everyone who was supportive and gave me feedback, I appreciate it greatly <3
-----------------------------------------------
So, what's next for me? I'm still working out the details of everything but I can tell you guys 2 things (more information to be released soon!):
1. I will continue making clay keycaps. Thinking about doing rounds of commissions for people who want specific designs, but have to work on timing and logistics of that.
2. Do I see a sale on the horizon? Perhaps...
P.S. Shameless plug here for my
instagram. It was a little behind for my challenge, but it might be a good place to post some sneak previews of future things
