Title: [IC] Sona themed keycaps
Post by: ray160 on Wed, 10 October 2018, 21:45:26
Just something I threw together.
[attachimg=1]
Sona from League of Legends is my fav game char. I know it is not a game everyone plays or likes (even I am playing it much less), but I have had a lot of memorable moments with this character. I have made and lost many friends while playing her a little too much.
The colors are according to the PMK color codes:I am not very good at color matching and this was my first attempt. I know it looks similar to SA Dasher/Dancer but I think the blues will be different enough. (I would like it to be more different but I can't quite get the blues right).
Below is a pic of Sona for reference.

If you have any suggestions please let me know!

Way to similar to dasher dancer but besides that I feel like you need blue purple green yellow for her 4 abilities ;)

Yeah the colors currently are similar to Dasher/Dancer. I want to make the dark blue slightly darker to match with her dress a bit better but everything I tried ended up with a purple hue. And the lighter blue I would like to lean a little more towards blue cuz it's currently a little too green.
The abilities are a great idea! If this idea goes anywhere I'll try to make novelties for it. The novelties could also include phrases she says or music related words.
Thank you for the suggestion!

Edit: added part about lighter blue (I have not taken color theory)

Actually, a keyboard themed around her instrument (etwahl) might look nice

Yeah there is a lack of yellow/gold sets but I feel like that's because it's hard to match to a board. Or you can do DJ SONA and make a rainbow **** fest set

I am trying to change the colors of the blue to make them differ more from other sets but I am not great at color matching. My aim is to make the dark blue darker and richer and the light blue match better with her hair and the light blue on her dress. I want the main theme of the set to be her character with her abilities on the side possibly as novelties.

I think DJ Sona would be a lot more plain since her outfit and instrument are pretty much greys with colors as accents. The idea I thought up of would look fairly similar to DSA Groove

I like this idea cause I like purple sets. But also cause blue is overplayed right now
