UPDATE : 12/23/2021
GROUPBUY for Kiibu Otaku is now LIVE!
Links are posted above! Hope you guys join in.
Design related updates : I've gone and cleaned up some mistakes and changed some very minor things in the colors, and the renders below (FINAL RENDERS) should be reflective of what to expect as a final product.
only major change is the color of the circle shape on Lilac, and some tweaks to the colors of the eyes (i guess when you stare at them for too long they start looking 'off' lol)
Hey y'all, MisterMoy here again, back again with another deskmat :) with "Kanagawa" and "Deliciosa" done, I'm hoping that this will get enough interest to be my 3rd deskmat release. Hope you guys like this one!
Kiibu Otaku 「キーブ・オタク」 , or "Keeb Nerd" is what I feel I have turned into these past months.
I went from thinking $60 for a full kit mechanical keyboard was up there to joining in on $200 Group buy on just Keycaps I won't see or touch until 2023 , overnight. oof. I can't deny it though, Nerding out on everything about keyboards have been really fun and have made all the Working from home and Isolating more fun and tolerable. I do miss the money that used to live in my wallet though. kek
Let me know what you guys think and I hope Keyboard nerds out there enjoy this as much as i had fun piecing together this deskmat :)
UPDATE : 12/06/2021
I've received the Prototypes and I gotta say, these printed out VIBRANT and SHARP. Gotta tweak the colors a bit because the laser came out a bit dark, and the Pink came out too vibrant. Should be an easy fix.
Decided to scrap MINT colorway since it wasn't doing to well in the interest check and to streamline the choices.
Also Updated this post with renders below. Lighting effect on some of the renders might not be a 100% representation of actual colors.
Hopefully this will go LIVE on Groupbuy around 3rd Week december
