Title: [IC] MW - Eyeball Collector | Kitting
Post by: York Chan on Thu, 17 April 2025, 03:21:09

MW - Eyeball Collector

(https://i.imgur.com/pvjGY9G.png) (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=125060.0)

IC FORM: https://forms.gle/zscEHfTsNmwVgxmQ9


The inspiration comes from the monster that eats eyeballs. The setting of anthropomorphism based on eyeballs - "even if you grow legs, you can't escape the monster's hands" gave rise to a series of novel keys, which are presented in y2k colors.

I like what you did with the alphas: despite some of the legends being superfluous, I think they make the keys look pretty nice and balanced overall. But other than that, this colorway is not really my cup of tea. That being said, I'd be curious to see what a hypothetical alternate version of this set, without any neon green in it, would look like.

Also, this set strongly reminds me of KAT Slurp (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=111105.0).

I need this to happen. I'm in!

Swap the lowercase alphas to weeb sublegends. Novelties are perfect.

Do you have any picture examples about weeb sublegends?

They're talking about katakana subs, or hiragana, or hangul, or cangjie... Non-western alphabets basically.

I haven't thought of a sublegend that would be more suitable than lowercase letters, as it was a virtual setting inspired by scenes in “Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children” :thumb:

Ah I see didn't pay attention to the theme. I would just keep the normal alphas no sublegends it looks redundant with lowercase as well.

I would also pitch for Doubleshot instead of Silk.

Definitely in for this. Hopefully, it happens soon. It would look good on a certain dark indigo board!

This is very interesting! I don't think I have ever seen a complete PC cap set. Would love to add this to my collection.

This is really cool. I like alt alphas, but this would be cool with some alien sublegends. Might not fit the theme though.

Silk has better price and better design freedom. :thumb:

The speckles are a nice touch, gives me cosmos vibes but the speckles are far more visible. Interested to hear/see how the silk screen holds up versus doubleshot though.

finally something that's not a mashup of reused colorways and actually looks good

The manufacturer said that the spots cannot be made so obvious, and the rendering has been adjusted according to the sample :thumb:

i'd be curious to the durability of the legends via this manufacturing method.

The lifespan is basically enough to meet the usage cycle of a single set of keycaps for ordinary users. I have been using the same keycaps as Rakka from the time of testing until now and have not found any pattern falling off. :thumb:
