Dragons of Eden: the Descendants artisan keycaps

Link: https://www.jellykey.com/artisan-keycaps/dragons-of-eden-the-descendants

As far as we know, dragons are mysterious creatures, and those of Eden are the most of all. They rise, they fall, and they rise again. Last time, we’ve come to learn that there’re 1000-year-old dragon brothers lurking through the incandescent clouds upon the East Sea in the Eden world to magnify the magic stamped inside them. But this act did not appear purposelessly. The place needs protection, and this holy trinity of brothers has been at the helm of Eden with excellence and mindfulness when no other creatures could have done it any better.

This group-buy will closed at 2/12/2020, and please remember that we don’t run any group-buy again. 6 keycap per order & all collection will be free shipping.





Then, what essentially must be, prevails. Three dragons named Dranimus, Drapalala, and Drapartum brought their next generations into the world. They laid seven eggs to later hatch to seven youngsters under the celebration of the whole Eden. The moment these eggs started to crack, everything just stopped and everyone just held their breath. Against all odds, these offspring were born with great powers absorbed by all elements from nature and the Eden itself, which together forms something called Supreme Power, and is also the one and only thing that three brothers could ever expect. This drastically shook the whole East Sea and Eden alike with many associated names starting to appear, and the most popular among them was ”Birth of the Legends”.

A Betta Saga artisan keycaps

Link: https://www.jellykey.com/artisan-keycaps/a-betta-saga

In the previous chapters of our Eden chronicles, we’ve come to learn about the mighty Dragons of the East Sea, and the cheerfully dynamic Koi fish in the Zen pond, both filled with absolute essence from the magical world of Eden.

This group-buy will closed at 3/30/2020, and please remember that we don’t run any group-buy again. 6 keycap per order & all collection will be free shipping.









Dating back to the late 18th century, Betta fish has long been a legendary warrior symbol in the Eden world, arousing curiosity from every corner of this land as everyone wanted to capture, tame, or see them at least once in real life. But in the early days, hardly did anyone know that Betta is extremely territorial, carrying a massive sense of aggression in their blood, especially the males. Let me elaborate in this scenario for you to imagine more easily on how aggressive Betta can get. If inhabiting together in the same area, they can attack each other until death if the surrounds are too close. Simply put, Betta fish are certainly not friendly neighbors. They are solitary soldiers.

Retro TV series – Arcade Cabinets artisan keycaps

“Heyyy, Virtual Cop after school?”
“Sure, gonna beat your ass this time! Hahaha….”

This group-buy will closed at 5/2/2019, and please remember that we don’t run any group-buy again. 6 keycap per order & all collection will be discount and free shipping.





Thanks to the time machine, we just came back and took the dialog to open this note. Just kidding. But hey, remember how exciting it was to stop by your favourite arcade after school? And how mesmerizing it was to sink in button-bashing with your best mates and beat the high score with all the joyful “beeps”, “blips” sounds coming along the way? Those could be the most  incredible memories in the world back in time when you didn’t have to worry about bills, taxes, toxic relationships and of course any pandemic depression. All you had to worry then was just having enough quarters to get to the next level or how to resist the feeling of “can’t leave” to get home in time for lunch.

The Rehabilitation of Lost Cities artisan keycaps

Link: https://www.jellykey.com/artisan-keycaps/the-rehabilitation-of-lost-cities

During the High-tech War of the world is likely ending, a strange meteorite was in a head-on collision with Earth which everyone later knows as Phaethon Impact. After Giant-Impact, the world order was changed one more time…

This group-buy will closed at 6/5/2020, and please remember that we don’t run any group-buy again. 6 keycap per order & all collection will be free shipping.







Indeed, Creative Realism – a miracle – what we would like to get into the whole Jellykey keycap. Now, let us tell you how we got this miracle in the rehabilitation of Lost Cities.

The ruins of buildings that have size 1-2 mm have been poured into the molds. After becoming solidified within 8 hours in pressure pots, the castings are detached from their molds to move the design details step. In this step, the artisans will place these details on the sole of each size according to a sketch designed beforehand. It will take about 30 – 45 minutes to complete.

For “Lost Cities II”, three size key-cap correspond to three layers, each layer has 4 distinctive landscapes. The color-ways are covered meticulously by nature effects in which the 4 main color-ways: bright orange – lava, blue ice-ocean, green – forest and chaotic color – toxic that are their own unique, especially we make sure a special effect – Red Dragon effect which was hidden inside the ruins, will get you a new impression. For that reason, the artisans take around 5 to 8 hours to complete every single key-cap...

Born of Forest artisan keycaps

Link: https://www.jellykey.com/artisan-keycaps/born-of-forest

The trees, with a diameter of 1.5mm and a height of 3mm, are our challenge at this time. Within three different highlights for each one, we even can’t remember how many times we remade from the zero points for painting and sticking the trees on the base to able to get ultra-realism. However, while the creation is highly appreciated. We created a “Born of Forest” by our spirit, and “Born of Forest” is just with you!…

This group-buy will be closed at 6/26/2020, and please remember that we don’t run any group-buy again. 6 keycaps per order & all collection will be free shipping.





Then, we guess this is the moment everyone has been waiting for: How to make Born of Forest

Firstly, we cast resin on the base in which trees, mountains, and a house. The minimums times are at least 10 minutes for each keycap. Casting resin base, on the other hand, requires up to 8 hours to become harden. Then, the rough edges from the casting process are ground smooth. Each tree is trimmed carefully before dusting. It will take us about 30 minutes with base and trees, especially, spacebar profile and Herbts design will take more 20 minutes to complete deburring – dusting.

Next to the handmade-painting step, each detail includes the wood base, landscape, mountains need skill in the use of the hands. Each profile has its own time to be unique. For this reason, every single keycap is required up within 30 minutes to 2 hours before moving the next.

For each design, the grass is what we had to try many grass colors to make realistic nature. Times between 20 minutes to 40 minutes are considered suitable for sodding. Every single will has at least 3 types of grass and covered by 2 -5 types of highlight. For trees and houses, we stick carefully each detail within 20 minutes to 1 hour to be the basic scene of the forest. This step is considered a key point for this collection.

The keycaps will be moved to the final profile layers step. After casting into the molds with different sizes, those are put in paint pressure pots to be dryness within 16 hours. Finally, the artisans will clean the outer surface key-cap before having been tagged own serial number and added to inventory before delivering to you.

The trees, with a diameter of 1.5mm and a height of 3mm, are our challenge at this time. Within three different highlights for each one, we even can’t remember how many times we remade from the zero points for painting and sticking the trees on the base to able to get ultra-realism. However, while the creation is highly appreciated. We created a “Born of Forest” by our spirit, and “Born of Forest” is just with you!

8-bit series: Pipeline City artisan keycaps

https://www.jellykey.com/artisan-keycaps/8-bit-series-pipeline-city

after 5 years working as a keycap maker, this is the first time I try to make a cherry profile spacebar, yes, the spacebar in cherry profile…






a bit of history

What do we talk about when we talk about 8-bit? Well, there’s one thing we’re sure that it was, has been, and will ever be the golden era of the gaming world. Flashback 37 years ago, we wanted you to take a trip down memory lane, to reminisce about the very first time you held your console that’s taking the world by storm during that time and marking the start of the third generation of video game consoles. This period saw the dawn of 8-bit handheld consoles originated from Japan, and their legendary games coming along.

another world unravelled

To human’s eyes, the 8-bit gaming world seems to be only presented with the more improved visual and sound capabilities than the previous generation, but somewhere in 1983, up in the dusty attic of a boy named Orion, things were different. There lived a whole civilization that nobody ever knew about. The society of those magically built codes that come to life in a senseless cartridge. The stellarly enchanting world of Pipeline City.

Well, let’s get to know Orion, also known as the Master in Pipeline City, first. He is a young boy with a golden heart, which is very selective when it comes to who to open up. To outsiders, he carries a rather reserved, gives the impression of being a basic nerdy boy that’s always hiding in his bedroom to build something “weird.” Yes, that should be the word you’re thinking about. Or most of the time, he would retreat into his shell, hide under his hoodie cap, put on an all-black pair of headphones, and there you have it – another typical normie who likes to play video games. However, this is not the case at all, especially when he is with his most beloved ones at home. That’s how you know his heart has given its choice to open up.



this time we have 3 profiles: Cherry + SA + Cubic, and 5 keycaps sizes: 1u – 1.5u – 2u – 2.25u – 6.25u, 4 designs…

how we bring the keycaps into being: eden effect and zen pond III

Once again, Jelly Key is extremely gratified to take pride in being the first group of artisans to bring the Eden effect into keycaps. We have to say it’s been very encouraging for us to have received so much love and support from all of our treasured customers for this particular effect. This takes us back to the early days of 2018, the beginning of Jelly Key’s journey to discover a new effect that could represent our unique expression theme.

Eden effect did not just happen overnight. It’s a dozen months’ worth of researching and exploring of the whole Jelly Key team with artisanship expertise and unwavering determination. Our team spent a lot of time producing the harmonious effects and colors on each keycap, but still guaranteeing the same shade. Each keycap would have a unique effect and imprint not to repeat on any other keycaps. The color rays that you can see on a finished product are a process of trial and error through different deposition times, awaiting temperatures, and color fusion. Well, old sayings are never wrong; hard work did pay off. The Eden effect was born, and that’s all we ever needed to achieve and bring to you the signature effect originally created by Jelly Key.

Fast forward to several months later, in August 2018, we introduced to the world the first handcrafting keycap collection delicately embedded with the Eden effect. It took the name of Zen Pond with a spiritual theme centralizing Koi fish – an iconic Japanese fish variety. We have been making the Zen Pond collection for quite a long time now, greatly inspired by Koi fish’s symbol of luck, prosperity, and good fortune; to be later transformed into Zen Pond keycaps under the meaning to bring peace and harmony in mind to whoever person that owns it. Creating such a collection with both magical Eden effect and beautiful living jewels like Koi fish is truly a phenomenal work of Jelly Key. The theme acted as a strong base for us to continue creating the next generations of this series, giving birth to Zen Pond spacebar/enter/shift artisan keycaps, Zen Pond II – A Story of Everything, and now, the latest collection – Zen Pond III: Cherry Circle of Life. Now, let’s find out how we made these cute little babies!

how small is it?


In this Zen Pond III collection, we created 6 different positions of Koi fish, dividing into 3 sizes of 6mm, 7.5mm, and 9mm. Don’t be concerned by this tiny scale because you can still recognize very lively details inside the keycaps just under the size of a pinkie tip. In particular, the Koi fins are especially highlighted on their bodies to make it most visible and animated, no matter their size. You’ll be able to see ultra-cute Koi fishies in a rounded shape with a unique chibi style!

coloring the kois – tough work!


Moving on to color and effect formation, again, it takes the Pouring Art of mixing alcohol ink with resin to produce this magical series. It conveys abstract and random aspects of expression. The reaction of alcohol ink in resin brings a hypothetical effect occasionally used in interior design for some specific purposes. Its elegant fluids play a crucial role in raising the power of imagination. In the collection, we applied 3 to 5 layers of paint for each keycap so the colors can have a certain thickness and be clearer to our eyes. More importantly, these color tones are entirely based on real Koi fish to increase their authenticity.

This is also the hardest thing we faced during the production of Zen Pond III. Koi fish molds in the collection are much smaller than the previous series of Zen Pond I and II, so it’s very challenging to paint the fishes and keep them spirited as much as possible. Not to mention that we also made Cherry profiles for the whole keycaps, which induced another difficulty in detail layout as the space in this profile is typically short.

One last important thing to note is that the Jelly Key team always tries to produce keycaps with authenticity as much as we can. This also means it is not possible to guarantee our designs’ color fluids will look exactly the same as shown in pictures on our website. More excitingly, however, each keycap will have its own unique and distinct fluid effect, so the only common thing they share is the color option. No single keycap will bear a similar look to any other ones with their signature color ray imprint.

men v. droids – untold stories artisan keycaps

https://www.jellykey.com/artisan-keycaps/men-v-droids-untold-stories-artisan-keycaps/

When madness and greatness come together, what will happen? This is how Christopher – a very special boy – became a surgeon and how fate has led his way to be more than that.






a bit of Christopher

Christopher was born into a family without a mother. He grew up with his father since he was only two years old, one of the critical stages of raising a child that needs the presence of both parents the most. And yet, he was deprived of that basic privilege which everyone in this world should have. Understanding this great hardship that Christopher had to undergo at such a young age, his father devoted his entire love and energy to him. He vowed on his wife’s death that he would do everything to make up for this loss and raise Christopher in a way that any child should be treated. From that moment on, the life of this miserable father revolved around only two things: Christopher and his mechanical robot creations.

A garden full of cherry in the 8-bit yard


What drives us to produce a sequel to this pixelated 8-bit collection is entirely your love and cherished feedback when you receive the previous keycaps. Those who owned and loved the 8-bit series keycap have sent many requests about making cherry profile keycaps, and for that, we’re much appreciated it. We have 5 primary colors with lots of shades. There’s been an upgrade in this 2nd version that we guess you might like to add another positive note. Back in the 1st 8-bit series, most of the sizes were SA profile, leaving only 2 cherry sizes. With the Pipeline Bots comeback, we have made a full cherry profile for this series, including 7 sizes (1u / 1.25u ctrl,alt / 1,5u tab, \ / 2u / 2.25u Enter / 2.75u right shift / 6.25u Spacebar ), 4 game scenes, and 5 colors!

Among 5 sets of colors available, When you purchase a set “all profiles” 7 keycaps, you’ll be gifted a special spacebar, featuring a very interesting feature. It is not covered by a crystal resin layer as usual, but the whole scene itself. How cool is it!

[Jelly Key][Raffle] – Arcade cabinets – Ageless console version - For charity

Form link:  https://forms.gle/X5sk5nx4GhdkkHKZ8

Jelly Key is about to launch a raffle event with these extra special Ageless console artisan keycaps. We particularly made this to support the COVID-19 vaccine fund in Vietnam with all revenue from the raffle. The keycaps’ screen inside shows the shooting battle against the COVID virus as a way to raise awareness of protecting ourselves and keeping safe in the pandemic.

Welcome to Jelly Key’s raffle - Ageless console, a special version of Arcade cabinet keycaps!

We’ll donate all the money to Vietnam’s COVID vaccine fund from this raffle event along with an additional $1000 from the Jelly Key team will also be given to support the fight against COVID-19 further.

Now let’s look at the Ageless console keycaps for today’s raffle. They show a shooting attack against the COVID virus, reminding people to get the vaccine as a way to protect themselves and the whole community.

Maybe this has been already asked in this (long!) thread but: have you considered having a EU proxy distributor at some point?

Your artisans are amazing, but the only thing that scares me a bit is that one of the last times that I received an international delivery by FedEx, they charged a minimum of 50€ in order to handle taxes (so you can end up buying something that costs 50€, has taxes for 10€, and having to pay an extra 50€ to FedEx in order to handle those 10€).

That was actually my worst experience (and FedEx is an incredibly awful delivery company in Spain, not just because of this), but still...

P.S. And if not a Proxy, have you considering using the EU IOSS platform? For orders under 150€, you collect the VAT, and the price you sell to EU customers is final, with no surprises and no extra customs charges.

Born of forest – It listens artisan keycaps

https://www.jellykey.com/artisan-keycaps/born-of-forest-it-listens




In the first story of Born of forest, Johan was in fact, born of the forest. After dropping like a stone, he landed on the ground in the middle of this mystical woodland. Something as bright as torch flame flashed through the vines and trees, followed by a giant shadow of darkness.

In the first story of Born of forest, Johan was in fact, born of the forest. After dropping like a stone, he landed on the ground in the middle of this mystical woodland. Something as bright as torch flame flashed through the vines and trees, followed by a giant shadow of darkness.

Johan was born of forest

Johan woke up a few hours later, feeling dizzy and disoriented. Where he was standing stretched through an endless grass field amid a magnificent rolling forest. In the distance, the towering rock mountains were covered by snow. Beyond the grass, the area was surrounded by pine trees. A house – that’s exactly what he’s finding, which nestled peacefully by the edge, fell asleep soundly in the dark. He looked up to the sky and saw a strange glowing band of cloud arching over him.

“What a beautiful Milky Way!” a familiar voice said. “Welcome to Godka Valley where it is born of forest, Johan.”

Ever since he was dropped straight into Godka Valley, Johan has fallen in love with this magical place. The forest where he is living holds powerful sources of charm within itself. It keeps giving him more and more adventures to uncover every day. Used to be a man that sat in a local bar full of strangers, Johan now becomes a curiosity-filled natural dweller who always yearns for voyages of exploration deep into the forest.

Re: [Jelly Key][GB] – Zen Pond IV – God’s creation artisan keycaps

Zen Pond IV – God’s creation artisan keycaps

https://www.jellykey.com/artisan-keycaps/zen-pond-iv







Similar to the previous collections of Zen Pond, we made the Kois in very small size. Don’t be concerned by this tiny scale because you can still recognize very lively details inside the keycaps just under the size of a pinkie tip. In particular, the Koi fins are especially highlighted on their bodies to make it most visible and animated regardless of their size.

A whole new way to Koi making

In Zen Pond 4 we choose a completely new production technique that has never been used before at Jelly Key to take another step in innovating this unique collection. The technique creates 3 parallel color rays, resulting in a high and realistic contrast on the background. This particularly helps highlight the beautiful Koi fish.

The Kois are then made with different depth levels to create special Eden effects. This step takes a lot of time to do, especially when it comes to working with Koi fish as they are placed on various layers of clear resin. The amount of time and efforts is much more than other Zen Pond collections but it is very rewarding because we can produce an another amazing collection of God’s creation.

Coloring the Kois – tough work! Moving on to color and effect formation, again, it takes the Pouring Art of mixing alcohol ink with resin to produce this magical series. It conveys abstract and random aspects of expression. The reaction of alcohol ink in resin brings a hypothetical effect occasionally used in interior design for some specific purposes. Its elegant fluids play a crucial role in raising the power of imagination. In the collection, we apply 3 to 5 layers of paint for each keycap so the colors can have a certain thickness and be clearer to our eyes. More importantly, these color tones are entirely based on real Koi fish to increase their authenticity.

This is also the hardest thing we faced during the production of Zen Pond IV. It’s very challenging to paint the fishes and keep them spirited as much as possible. Not to mention that we also made Cherry, SA and OEM profiles for all keycaps in the collection, which induced another difficulty in detail layout as the space in this profile is typically short.

Cosmos series: Astronaut odyssey artisan

https://www.jellykey.com/artisan-keycaps/cosmos-astronaut-odyssey









It’s just another regular day on Earth. And another typical day for the Matthias crew, boarding the Skylab rocket ship for the ExpeditionX mission to scout other planets outside of the Earth and find signals of extraterrestrial life. At the exact moment of 10:28:13 EST, September 7, 2093, the Skylab spaceship launched into the sky and hit outer space to carry out another galactic exploration and advance humankind’s history.

Now that the Matthias crew has returned home safely, we can learn more about we build how their spaceships, all by the hands of Jelly Key’s talented artisans.

Creation of astronauts In the Cosmos series: Astronaut odyssey artisan keycaps, it’s evident that astronauts are critical elements contributing to the collection’s beauty. We need to cast the incredibly tiny astronauts and paint them all by hand. This process takes a lot of time, especially when dealing with small pieces. Getting them out of the moulds is one challenge; another challenge is the number of qualified pieces as we have to eliminate any defective ones.

Base building As you may know, any artisan keycaps at Jelly Key always have a base. It is imperative to hold the details altogether. We also produce a base for this collection without exceptions by casting 100%. The base is lit horizontally and vertically by LED lights mesmerisingly. The vertical light will lead to the galaxy body part, while the horizontal light shines through the net-like details at the bottom of the base.

Crafting the galaxy sphere The details become more delicate and thin with a new casting technique, elevated by sparkling materials. They are blended to create the effect of endless black holes. You can also see the multidimensional floating patterns that make the galaxy sky even more alive. The casting process of each layer takes from 8 to 16 hours, not to mention it would take longer to cast emulsifiers than regular materials.

8-Bit Series III: Neon Era Artisan Keycaps

https://www.jellykey.com/artisan-keycaps/8-bit-series-iii-neon-era


This group buy will be closed on 6/14/2022, and please remember that we don’t rerun any group buy. 6 keycaps per order & all collections will be free shipping. Check out our fabulous gifts for this 8-bit series, sticker for every keycap and uncover resin spacebar for “all size” keycaps.











In the previous 8-bit series, we have learned how the super trio Mika, Louie, and Black saved the Pipeline City and brought justice back to this pixel world. The Pipeline City is growing exponentially, with a strong focus on robotics and machine learning development. The whole city now resembles a video game scene in the 50s. However, it comes with a futuristic setting.

Everything starts with a change

The government has decided to reform the city to “take the Pipeline City to the next level”. They ask the scientists to create the most advanced robot generation with all the cutting-edge technology possible. The government will, in return, fund the research and support them financially to address any scientists’ age-old desire: conquering new knowledge and discovering scientific breakthroughs. It is the classic relationship between the government and scientists.

They are looking for humanoid machines that can learn and execute human activities, which can help revolutionise the city and go beyond whatever human beings have ever achieved. But that’s not all. The government has yearned for a top military system backed by robotic technology so that it can help them defeat other cities in this pixel world. One Pipeline City is never enough.
