It looks good! One thing I would say to be aware of is the height of the keycap, with so many Cherry profile sets out there, it'd be nice if the keycap wasn't too tall.
looks great. love the differences in texture. i see influences from a couple lizards.not sure how familiar you are with the artisan keycap making stuff, but there's a jig called :~$ynth that makes the whole process of making a usable keycap a lot easier.thread: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=78551.0available at: https://techkeys.us/collections/accessories/products/synthbut you could just as easily add one of the lego stems from shapeways to your sculpt (definitely a lot cheaper than :~$ynth)https://www.shapeways.com/product/XPK4SPGSC/2x2-building-block-cherry-mx-key-capanyway, congrats. looks great!
Thanks! and I bought the l2k but it didnt come in the mail before leaving to see my bf, but yeah! I also want to try out the synth as well! Ive been dabbling in research on and off for a few months.

Ive been dabbling in research on and off for a few months. l2k, yeah, saw that too after i submitted my reply. very versatile little buggers.
awesome work! ever think about putting something along the eyes like a gem or some sort of different color?
just take an mx switch and superglue the stem (in the up position) so it doesn't move. there's your base.
It looks great, maybe it will shine in the mouth?
If you have access to 3d printer why dont you give a try zbutt. https://github.com/imyownyear/Z-ButtIts open source. And probably a lot cheaper than buying an already made system.Oh, join the discord too. Theres a lot of talented makers there. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
Hello! This is my first try at sculpting with monster clay! I have sculpted with sculpey and mud clay before, but nothing this tiny! I wasnt sure I could do it! My sculpts have always been large, but Im pretty happy with how this one turned out! Please allow me to introduce my crazy-eyed turtle/lizard/dinosaur guy !please excuse the lighting, it was taken at night in my bf's work room. (Attachment Link) (Attachment Link) (Attachment Link) if anyone has any advice for me, any and all are appreciated!

Synth is a very useful tool so make sure you get it! Your sculpt is good. It has the details. Look forward to see more progress from you!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I like that skin texture!An easy trick for sculpting on the L2K is to put a stock keycap on and then trace the outline with an xacto knife. Then you can remove the cap and be sure to stay inside that outline to guarantee there won't be any clearance issues with neighboring keys.
My wife I a also push her button . But now she have her button push by a different men. So I buy a keyboard a mechanicale, she a reliable like a Fiat.
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too tall.
