We are opening the subreddit for questions.

You can ask questions in posts now instead of using the thread below for more visibility.

No seriously, Go ahead and just make a post for your question.

We do ask that you adhere to the parameters below to make it easier to get help.

Before you ask your question(s):

  • Please make an effort and do some research. We are not here to search the internet for lazy people, we will not go searching for a specific keycap set to fit your specific stock keyboard.
  • If you're looking for a place to buy keycaps: Places to buy keycaps
  • If it's a question about keyboards go to r/MechanicalKeyboards
  • If you want someone to design your keycaps go to r/keycapdesigners
  • Use this format.

Question: Lorem ipsum

Research I've looked on ... subreddits and I've used Google... But I still can't find an answer.

Artisan The Celestial Archive Artisan Collection

Thumbnail
gallery
71 Upvotes

Hi r/keycaps

We developed The Celestial Archive from the idea of turning celestial symbols into miniature sculpts that could live on a keyboard.

The collection includes 3 artisan keycaps and 1 keycap holder:

*Ophanim 1U

*Cherubim 2.25U,

*Sword of Spirit - a spacebar 6.25U

*Throne keycap holder - a display piece designed for 1U keycap.

Colorways:

*Artisan keycap: 4 colorways

*Keycap holder: 2 colorways

One detail we spent a lot of time refining was the shine-through openings, which allow keyboard LEDs to illuminate the sculpted details.

If you’d like to learn more about the resin casting, painting process or how Throne is assembled, We’d be happy to share.

The Group Buy runs from 28 AUG - 12 SEP.

Visit Dwarf Factory for more information.

Keycap set Ideas and recommendations, please?

Post image
113 Upvotes

Hello, everyone! How are you guys doing?

I’m currently building my 60% keyboard. So far, I’m using the SWG Rubber keycaps (image attached, taken from the internet), but there’s one thing: I want this to be a fully black build, so I won’t be using any of the beige keycaps from the set.

Do you guys have any ideas or recommendations for black keycaps that I could use to complete the build?

Ideally, I’m looking for something that matches the black and red of the SWG Rubber set as closely as possible.

Thanks!
