Just like reaper V2 , I'm not fan of this, too much details and this kind of design is not something I could ever imagine putting on a board.

Although good job Bro, the caps display the amount of work put into this.

Thanks everyone for your replies. To answer a few questions; yes, these will be keycaps

I am still putting some finishing touches on them, but hope to have some samples soon (and maybe a few to give away!)

Do you use a magnifying glass when making them or do you just have very good eyesight? they look nice, not my cup of tea but nice none the less!

Ahh I always wondered because they always look so big but then I got confused on how you shrunk them XD (I'm a goofball) Its pretty crazy how you can get detail into something so small.

Bro, you really are a talented sculptor. Those are not just amazing in their detail, but also in their artistic expression. I feel like the Chief displays a sense of quiet dignity while the bushi is more of a reckless warrior. Bravo dude.

And then you add the fact they're so small. And your casting ability. Dang.

Thank you. I used this as a reference. I went through a lot of different photos and paintings, and this one stood out to me among all others. It felt powerful on its own.

Very thrilled with these tiny tiny sculpts

Awesome work Bro.

The painting is nice, but I like how sculpture changes with the type and direction of light.

Bro, these look really great. I am always amazed when new designs are released from artisan cap makers, especially when they have this level of detail. The Cherokey looks great, but I am looking forward to the Bushi more, personally. Can't wait to see how the final versions of turn out. Keep up the great work man.

BroRai looks awesome, the IndiBro has amazing level of details!

admiralvorian · « **Reply #70 on:** Thu, 16 July 2015, 19:28:49 »

The cherokey has so much more impact because of the facial detail. the broshido is a dope idea but doesn't really make me 'feel' anything.

in my head badass samurai = toshiro mifune

bro.... these are awesome.

i'm digging both. i'm partial to the 'Cherokey' due to my n/a blood

Your blood is not applicable?

These look amazing! Great job Bro!

P.s. If you end up producing "bushi" you should totally name it Membro ( the style of mask is called a mempo )
