caps you would like to see?
« on: Sun, 30 September 2012, 21:30:03 »
as sculptor, i am always looking for new things to craft and occupy my time. and of course my new interest in mech keyboards has inspired me to begin making some of my own keycaps.  with no real printing equipment at the time, and a diverse knowledge of moldmaking (one of the few things i can do well ha) i have decided to make some sculpted 3d caps. so, what would you like to see?

A unicorn is the first thing that comes to mind. Also keys that are shaped like the letter it represents would be cool I think, as long as it fills out a lot of the keycap area.

Make a skull that actually looks like a skull. :)
I had a sig once but it's gone. It used to display an icon of a Kinesis. Just imagine that.

Interesting...what is your sculpting medium typically?  I think a 'tin robot' head would be pretty cool.

Make a skull that actually looks like a skull. :)

This would be cool too!  Alot of tiny detail work, I'd imagine...but possible!

I would love to see a clone trooper helmet, like the Darth Vadar cap, also anything else star wars creator. I'd give anything for a Plo Koon Keyboard cap :) Seriously though, I'd be happy with anything really.

A skyrim themed key, perhaps that famous helmet with the horns. Sexy.
