I decided to do these caps a little differently.  Instead of having them go immediately after I put them up, consider this a notice of when the sale begins.

At 14:00:00 forum time (12PM PST) 1/25 orders open.  Just respond in this thread and the first one to do so at 14:00:00 or later gets the cap.  I will contact you via PM to get your Paypal address, then send you an invoice.  Like always, I'm open to trades, but there's no guarantee I'll take the trade offer.  Shipping can be combined for a small price reduction for multiple caps except for caps that are Geekhack donation caps.  Geekhack donation caps require me to confirm that you won first and require mod confirmation before the cap will be sent.

For Nebula caps, priority will be given to someone who wants to buy the matched set.  If someone does not take the matched set in the minute following the first single cap order from the set, it will be split into separate parts.

Trifid Nebula Caps



$15 shipped each, $40 shipped for the three.

Designs from left to right, top to bottom are Derp Cap V2, Hard Knock Waz, and Trooper cap.

More
Jellyfish Nebula Caps



More

$15 shipped each, $50 shipped for all 4.

Designs from left to right, top to bottom are Cycap, Trooper cap, Derp Cap V2, and Hard Knock Waz.


Fiery Owl Nebula



More

$15 Donation to Geekhack each, $10 for the Trooper since I'm not 100% happy with the base, $50 Donation to Geekhack for all 4.

Designs from left to right, top to bottom are Hard Knock Waz, Derp Cap V2, Cycap, and Trooper cap.


Visitor Caps and matched color HKW, Cycap, and Trooper Cap



Color name from Left to Right, Top to Bottom:  Skeletor, Miami, Visitor (the first one made), El Diablo, Pluot, and Sic 'Em.

The colors are slightly off in the picture for Sic 'Em and Visitor.  Visitor is grey without a greenish hue in the main body and Sic 'Em is a darker green than it appears in the picture.

Skeletor has been sold already as part of a pre-release early sale for answering some trivia correctly about the colors.

$15 each, Pluot is $15 donation to Geekhack



Matched Hard Knock Waz: Pure White, Alien Green, Miami Magenta

$15 for Alien Green, $10 if bought with the matching Visitor cap.  Pure White is $12 since I had to do some post work to make the stem tighter.  Miami Magenta is $10 since I'm working on making the stem tighter, but it may be loose and need to be tightened with tape or something at the time of sale.

More


Hell Red Cycap and Goldenrod Trooper.  $15 Donation to Geekhack each.

If you buy the Goldenrod Trooper with another cap and can correctly tell me why I chose that name, I'll knock $3 off the other cap's price.
And thanks to everyone who supports my experiments. It allows me to keep experimenting in different areas (like my metal casting) and helps me afford to keep experimenting with different non-traditional dye coloring materials.

Edit:  I forgot to say these are US shipped prices.  International will cost a little more since shipping is triple what it costs within the US.

Edit 2: Alright, here's what I have.  Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Nice caps dude! Love the trooper.
One thing I don't understand is both clack factory and you discribe skeletor as purple body and white face. Skeletors face is yellowish I just don't get the white.

Anyways back to topic, can't wait to purchase! Bookmarked

testing waters thread?

OKAY BOOST.

No testing waters here, just a pre-sale notice like most other cap makers do.  Since more than a few people seemed to really want some of the nebula caps, I figured it was the easiest way to make it so everyone interested had a fair chance.

I'm also making sure a good number of the cap sales are benefiting GH since this is where I've learned so much about keyboards and several posts hosted on here encouraged my experiments in cap crafting of all kinds.

I was thinking about that yesterday and today, but I had already called it Skeletor.  I'll be doing a Bone White or "true" skeletor later with a slightly yellow face and darker purple hood. 

Ok so at 12pm it will be open for orders ? I'm so going to be on this ^_^ I so want the Trooper keys bad. Its MX right ?

Yes, it's all MX.  I need to get some Topre caps before I can start doing Topre casting.

Looking great nubbs! I'll have to try and pick one up from the classifieds, the time zone gods are not with me for this sale :p
It's a good width!  If it's half-width it's too narrow, and full-width is too wide.

Protip: you can disable that hint in your profile - I did that just for this sale. Also counted down after a refresh of the site 11 seconds before the sale, worked out quite well I'd say.

Nope doing that blocked me 4 - 5 times :/ kinda pathetic. I respect it's a feature but as a guy with Autism surely I already know I'm mentally retarded and not have to be reminded by losing out on some awesome keycaps due to something that should be automatically disabled and given the option to turn on, not forced on.

It isn't, but in this case the edited post is timestamped a little before the other post.  With an edited post, your timestamp is the edited by time.  So if you had an order, someone after you posted the same, then you edited it, you'd lose your spot.
