[IC] VenomBite / Cherry (Maybe SA)
« on: Fri, 27 May 2022, 12:43:56 »
This is my first time designing a keycap set. This was heavily inspired by the character Viper from Valorant. Stock font was used, may not be final.

Sorry, this is my first time,

Is this meant in a positive way or a sarcastic way? Thanks

It would also be really useful to know why it is not it. What I can change to make it better, or if its so bad that there is nothing I can change to improve it, why it is so bad. Thanks.

This is extremely underdeveloped. Please look at other keycap ICs and compare them to yours.

I think I see your point. I think I may have confused feedback stage and IC stage. I'm new to forums like this, so do I lock this topic or delete it?

As mentioned before, compare it to other ICs and see what's different. I would suggest you leave this as is, come back to the drawing board, get yourself the following, then come back, modify the post, and announce the overhaul:
Kitting, renders, colours (RAL, Pantone, etc), a backstory to the set or why it's a set worth looking at.
I'd like to let you know that Viper's abilities may be copyrighted by Riot Games, so this will not run well with some manufacturers.

For now, the feedback I have for the set is that, objectively, it may be severely restrictive to Viper mains and not very welcoming to non-Valorant players.
Subjectively, the stark green and black combo reminds me of Razer, and I think this would benefit from more muted greens that can complement the greens and other colours of custom keyboards.

Consider running your idea through a discord keyboard group. I won't name them specifically, but it's good to explore first.

Good luck with IC.

Hey, it's fine, we all make mistakes sometimes. With a little bit more browsing on keycaps and some help, you'll make a banger set in no time. I also second all the feedback that was given. Don't be discouraged!
