KAP Deez Nuts

Inspired by my daily snacks, KAP Deez Nuts pays homage to these wonderful superfoods. Blending the colours of almond, macadamia, pistachio, and red peanut skin, this set uses earthy pastel tones to bring Deez Nuts to life. A crunchy addition to any build...it's time to type on Deez Nuts.

Introduction
Hello! I've been sitting on the design of Deez Nuts for quite some time now. It started off as a KKB project, then entered the GMK contest, and now it's finally going to find its home as a KAP set! KAP was chosen to allow for a larger base kit (no kerfuffling around with a gazillion child kits that end up getting abandoned anyway...) and also to take advantage of the dye sub + double shot method used for novelties. This ensures that we get novelties that contain much more detail, richer colour than simple double-shot, as well as never having the rubbing off/texture properties of UV-printed novelties. All this for <$100 for the base kit, provided there's enough resin left in the world to make these...

Specifications
Material: PBT
Production method (base kit): double shot
Production method (novelties): dye sub (art) + double shot (rest of keycap)
Manufacturer: Keyreative

Vendors

There's a pair of bearded walnuts that would beg to differ, sir.

I genuinely really like the color scheme on this. Hopefully it sees it to group buy!
Separately, any chance for windowed lock keys in an alt kit? This could go really well with an orange LED underneath

Thank you! I'm aiming for this to be a "came for the meme, stayed for the theme" set. I'll find out from Keyreative if they have windowed caps lock :)

Updated with a couple of new renders!

Vendors also updated, will be reaching out to more soon :)

We're currently requesting colour matching and samples from Keyreative, ETA on those is within the next month or so.
