Taobao has some. I have seen those chipheil or chiphell metallic ones on there as well, but it will take some creative searching to find them on there.

They stick the alphabets on to the keycaps one by one. So I imagine you'd need a few sheets of metallic stickers.

They printed them in the form of those dry transform rub on sticker sheets.
something like this

I think the point is not to have the alphabet, but some way to know where toplace your hand on your keyboard, to differenciate some keys from the others without looking at it.

Look at the picture on the keys F and J, there are little dots, that's what we are talking about.

Seriously though bumps are probably just out of one of those cell phone rhinestone kits.

I feel like those are a little too big not to be a bit uncomfortable..

Those stickers are made for keyboards it seems, they're not just alphabet decals for model making. My search hasn't come up with much unfortunately

Here's another picture (sorry, image embedding doesn't seem to be working)

They do look good I have seen them before, but have no idea where to get them.

I can only imagine how hard they would be to put them on each key though.

Ok! So i got my korean friend to ask on the KBDMania website about these stickers and this was one of the responses he received

"I got a response, and one of the members told me that they discontinued because they were raised they would come off so wasn't really popular. However, there are people who want to buy them still, and they download the keyboard letters sheet (which people apparently make) and they take it to a lazer cutter and just get them made themselves, since they are hard to find now.

But apparently people prefer the stickers that they can stick on a wider surface. Non of them directed me to a direct link. Another person said I may be able to go find one if I searched around the electronic district in Korea"

Not sure where i get laser cutting done tho, at least not locally and it sounds expensive... more research to do!

Dog I should have thought about that. I am sure you can prolly find a local place to have it done at, maybe a sign shop.
