Thinking about adding a drop of black plastic in the eyes to make it pop. What you think?

Don't do it! The nice shaping you have done provides its own depth. If anything, I'd say do an actual color. Red for angry, green for greedy, yellow for jaundice, etc.

Jaundiced Superhero Keycap LTD Edition.. in41

But seriously... where is mine? <3

Nice key.

If that is Batman, the Dark Knight, it should be at least a couple of shades darker, IMO

Yes. Blank keys to make prototypes.

Once I like the prototype I then make a master mold

That's awesome!  Are you going to have them made commercially or do you plan to do the molding yourself?
