[IC] XCom Keycap/Keyset

<< < (2/2)

reaper:
Oh, there were a few group buys here that I didn't join (lack of fund, didn't like the color, etc).   :)

Internetlad:
Just had a second thought when I opened up XCom and saw the way they wrote it.



One letter per key, X C O M Would work well for F1-F4 if ESC was the logo.

What do you guys think?

hashbaz:
You've got it backwards in the OP -- dyesubs are capable of finer detail than doubleshots.  Fitting that entire logo on a single key is definitely a dyesub kind of job.  You could conceivably simplify it to the point that it could be done with doubleshots, but I don't think you could get the "Vigilo Confido" text.

The "XCOM" stylized letters could be done either way.

Huh, thought for sure it was the other way around.

In either case, I think that the inside plastic being not unlike the "ice" (ie meth) caps from the other GB going on would look great for the XCOM writing and logo, but any ghostly blue would work just as well.

Doing ghostly blue dyesub on black might be a challenge, though.

Scoliosis Jones:
interested as well
