KKB Kintsugi-Shiro



IC FORM



Inspiration


As the name implies this set is inspired by Kintsugi "Gold Joinery" the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with urushi lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum.
Boba.types had been working on a black and gold version of this same concept, so we have decided to team up and work on both sets together to bring you guys the best possible versions of each!



Renders

Ninelice by Rukia


Dia by Patty


OGR by AKB


RF60 by Fergstetal


Custom Alice by Patty


Renders

This set will be using KKB's metallic effect ABS for the gold legends and accent keys. Do note that the process of creating metallic ABS involves special powders that are subject to the various injection flow patterns in each cap, creating a unique (and unpredictable) result. There will also be ultimately inherent limits in emulating the lustrous and shiny appearance of metal in plastic.

Base


Latin Alpha Kit


Numpad Kit


Novelty Kit
These will be UV print as i trsut the quality of KKB UV


Spacebar Kit


BAE + 10u Spacebar Kit

Europe: Pending Keygem
United Kingdom: ProtoTypist
