Our fearless leader may still be recovering, but you didn't really think team Katz would just let the hype train die, did you?
Handmade, wood type letterpress posters incoming... ETA=???
Did you draw that cap in the picture? it's done really well!
Thanks!
The linework was hand-traced from the original Cherry MX patent, although I condensed the parts into each other and removed some of the shading for clarity. Afterwards I freehanded the AXOL keycap on top. Just today, I finished the first stage of printing!
The 11x17 inch posters are being printed on very nice Mohawk Linen Cream paper that was leftover from one of my previous art school projects. There are 15 prints that turned out nicely, but one will be turned in to my teacher (sneakily using class assignments to work on personal projects) and some will probably be cut out if any of the wood typography misprints.
As an estimate, there will probably be about 10 final prints in this edition. Katz and I are thinking about doing a raffle or sending them out as bonus prizes with a future set of keycaps. Would you guys be interested?
The final product will look something like this:
