Title: [IC] do_Og@n Painted Halloween set???
Post by: do_Og@n on Thu, 02 October 2014, 21:41:00
So last year I painted a set of Halloween themed keycaps and I was wondering who out there would be interested in another one?

Here is what I've come up with:

x1 Pumpkin
x1 Ghost
x1 Halloween themed ArachnoCaps
x1 Zombie

One of each in Topre, DCS Cherry, OEM Cherry, BS, and ALPS. How does that sound?

As a recap here is a photo of last years set.

Not into this holiday but my vote would go towards ghosts.  I was immediately reminded of ghost bro and I love that little guy.

Depending on how many show interest it would be around a week or two before Halloween.

I like the way you think. I would rather have zombies than witches.

This page (http://www.pennysdaybook.com/2010/06/25-essential-expressions-challange/) has a bunch of expressions if you need to look for inspiration when drawing ghostie or zambie faces. =3

I've changed my mind on the cats. I am going to do some Halloween themed ArachnoCaps instead. Orange on black, black on orange, most likely some purple.

Feel free to throw out some ideas.

Since you did the punkin lines around the sides of your last set, perhaps you could do webbing around the sides on these caps? Unfortunately, it's difficult to make a spider as... expressive as a jack-o-lantern.
[attachimg=1][attachimg=2]

The spider could be cartoony for more expression potential, or... i dunno! different sizes/designs of spiders on webs?

note: i'm at work, making due with the barest of graphic design tools here (microsoft word). I am not proud of what I've done here today. D:

They will look like the image below but with different colors, and I will be painting spiders on them.  :p

ArachnoCaps are all painted. I'll be starting on the Pumpkin keycaps tomorrow.

I'm just hoping I can get the rest done before it is to late.

Yes....there will be x4 Topre, x4 DCS Cherry, x4 OEM Cherry, x4 ALPS, and x4 Buckling Spring. I'm hoping to get them all finished this weekend. Even if I don't I'll start selling what I do have done this upcoming Sunday morning.
