Title: GiveAway: GiveAway: Widdlekitty Topre caps!
Post by: GenKaan on Mon, 30 May 2016, 10:24:52
Since Widdlekitty was so nice to me AND gave me way more than I asked for, I decided to give something back to the community :)

Whats up for grabs: Sunshine Agony (set) / Unicorn Tears (Esc)

Rules:

1) Post a pic of your Topre keyboard and give a reason why you want it. Either the yellow set (2x Esc row, 1x FN) or the one multicolored pink one (Esc row)
2) Will be closing entries when I feel like it this week
3) I pay for shipping regardless of where you live (+$10 if you want tracking info)

I would love to win these because I have never had any artisan topre caps before.

I attempt to make my own caps (poorly) and would love them to have an opportunity to see the quality difference in someones work who knows what they are doing.

Particularly the sunset :D

Here's my HHKB. I won't lie. Blanks are super nice and widdlekitty ones are especially nice. I'm all about being able to use artisans daily. They're a work of art but still - I don't believe in putting them on a shelf and just mesmerizing them. They need to be used and abused so they feel the love they deserve. That human touch, if you will. :)

This board is already full but I have a new FC660C in White coming to me in 2 weeks and want to keep that as close to stock as possible and having some bright blanks to keep it clean would be nice. I'd like the pink one if possible since I won't be using it on a HHKB and the yellow FN would be wasted.

Thanks for the generous giveaway!

here's my baby, either colourway is fine, I just want to inject a splash of colour on what is otherwise a rather stealthy board. Thanks for doing this!

I want the caps so I can spice things up in the bedroom
Things are getting more stale than two week old crackers. Nobody likes two week old crackers.
Edit: Pink because I mean pretty in pink right
