you can have the 5 trololo for free.
The DT ones should really go to Vax as its his design.
Im in the process of getting them all up on the website but I don't hold and stock at the moment and won't do for a couple of weeks.

Hi
If I put them up on website so you can make your order you will have to wait but it will give me a good indication of how many are needed. Are you saying both Quake keycaps are good?

We can make the DT keycaps 2 shot K series

Sorry, I just read it, was too excited while posting to see you answered already:D

Tbh, I like the QuakeIII Rune more, but that doesn't mean the Quake 4 Rune isn't awesome, too. It's just that I like the symbol more. [By the way, a Quad Damage Rune would be cool too^^]

utterly impressive. :shock: The faces and the detail on them are awesome. :!:
The DT caps should go with the DT caps group buy, at least that's how I feel. Also I'm under the opinion these are a tad off looking, which I take it, ain't your fault Sleabo, but is incorporated in the graphics file. The "D" is odd looking with the round part being fatter than the "I" part of it.
Also I was going to blah about the Quake 1 logo looking off until I realised it's the Quake 4 instead. ... :oops:
ps: Imo the Quake 1 logo is the best looking of the series but part 2 of the game had the biggest impact on me.
Nevermind, your work is all good looking!

Yes I agree the DT logo can be improved and should come out better if 2 shot

They all look quite nice. The element keys look crisp.

If I were to change something, it would be the D in the DT logo. The straight part seems thin. These are engraved, right? So there is no cast that is hard to change etc.

Are the colours for the SC keys fixed? Imo, I think protoss should be yellow and terran ought to be in red.

They are all just samples and yeah I realise I got the colours wrong for Starcraft so they will be changed when I get them made for the website. Zerg is OK though?

I think so, it was a while ago and not my race so someone else could chime in.

Btw, is the green on/off symbol made with an infill of translucent green?

I just realised the Starcraft ones would be nice for my nephew. Which means I need a MX board for him too. Oh boy.... :shock:

I guess it can be improved in engraved too, am I right ? Personally I like the thought of having engraved caps for DT.

no its made with normal green, just looks translucent maybe because of light

Yes they can be engraved better too. I will see what I can do

For future reference, how does dye subbing those faces work? Is there some sort of mask, like in screnprinting, or do you use a printer to print the dye which then sinks in, or do you print on a flat surface and then press that against the keycap surface, or is it something else completely?

Edit: A quickie google search: A reference pic
Spoiler:

Edit2: Oops, different terran logo

something else completely, trade secret ;-)
thanks for pics
