Caffeine Free Designs - Key caps - A Start

Please let me know what you guys think!  :thumb:

None of them are Grainy. It looks like that because of the mixture of Plastic and Aluminum.

Looking good. Would love to see the backside too :)   
Resin cast? 3D printed?

If you need something to go with them I may have some ideas...

3D Printed

Main Post updated with pictures of the stem.

Those are some great ideas. May I use them?

3D printed sparkles?  That's an interesting surprise :)

What cap profile is it based on?

That is paint so you can see it, the grand is hard for it to see.

It is not based on any profile.

I am in the process of making a pairing fn key.

Translucent caps are pretty popular. But metal caps should be pretty good depending on the finish. Maybe a WASD set ?

I have had 10 people reach out to me asking about topre. I am highly considering it. If I get enough people to post here or in over threads of mine about it. I will eventually add them. I just need to get my design for Mx down first because hat is what I mainly have.

Myself, I'm partial to transparent and shine-through materials, though I wouldn't be opposed to seeing these in aluminum.

Depending on design what would you pay for one, because aluminum caps are more expensive than plastic. They would have to be closer to 40$. And I had 7 more people message me about it. I will start on a topre design.

This is pretty nice.  I might be willing to check it out.  Especially if the quality is equal to or greater than Voidtek's stuff.  ;)

I think you will be very impressed with the quality. I love void's stuff. His stems are a bit iffy. Looking forward to getting these sent out to all the Freebie guys.
