Title: Tall Blue and black PBT keycaps?
Post by: vElectrixx on Wed, 05 February 2014, 11:29:43
I'm finally getting sick of the ABS keycaps on my Ducky. They get too shiny and develop oily blotches a bit too quickly. Anyone know someone or a website that sells keycaps? By tall, I mean Ducky keycap size. 'm looking for a black base set with bright blue modifier keys that have this color: http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=474

I contacted Ducky if I could purchase the keycaps alone, but they replied "probably not".

***edit: Before someone shows me SP's DSA keycaps, I'd like to say they're too small for me.

If anyone has this keyboard and is willing to sell me the keycaps, I'd accept that. I'd rather have black than grey, though.

u should probably go with grey mods + beige caps..

The blue and grey they used has too much clash... overtime, you'd get really sick of looking at it..

if only they blue shifted the grey they used, or maybe a lighter grey or a graphite blue...  but THAT as it is.. not so fitting.

I'd rather have blue+black. I just couldn't find an example with the exact color.

you're probably going to need to combine two sets.

just make sure you're getting OEM profile.

Is that the keycap size/type Ducky uses? If so, thanks!

I would get a white set and dye them... it will be WAY easier to get that color combo that way.
