Black and purple keycaps?
« on: Tue, 25 October 2016, 01:35:59 »
I've been looking for a set of keycaps like the Bro Set, though in PBT.
They don't have to have legends, they can be blanks, all I'm looking for is a pbt set of black keycaps with purple mods.
I've been looking for months, and nothing like this seems to exist.
Any sets like this, or will I have to dye my own or spend $200 on mixing 2 sets? Looking for darker purple (violet), not lavender.

Can either try and grab a bro set second hand or pray that the black lotus set that's in IC phase goes to GB.

I would try to get a bro set, but I don't want ABS keycaps. I tend to sweat a lot especially while playing games, and my current set of ABS caps started to shine after only about 3 weeks. I'm assuming the black lotus set is going to be ABS too?

I don't think you can do artisans in PBT.

Not looking for artisans, I mean a full set of keycaps. Black alphas with purple mods.

I don't know of any pbt sets like that. Dig around and see if you can find 2 tar had sets, one in black, one in lavender. That probably won't run you much more than $60.

If you're fine with RCB, then PMK do blank DSA PBT sets. Otherwise what you're looking for doesn't exist.

I don't really like that color purple, too light for me. I've been looking at PMK for about a week now, think I'm just going to get white mods and dye them myself.

The purple color looks real sexy.
Unfortunately it's lacking HHKB support - lacking the smaller (purple) backspace on R3. Just one key more.
