DOMIKEY x JAEKEYED
RELIC
Hi everyone! Jae here. Here’s my second keycapset
design. I started this project right after the end of GMK
Lazurite’s Group Buy, last year. This time I designed a
gradient keycapset in partnership with Domikey. I have
acquired 4 Domikey Cherry profile all-in-one sets - WoB,
Astronauts, Vintage, Miami Nights, and to summarize: I can
vouch for the quality of Domikey Cherry-profile keycaps.
INSPIRATION
I
envisioned Relic to be a keycapset paying homage to the
vintage
CHERRY MX
ABS doubleshot keycaps, in a modern light - past meets
present. You may view the gradient as a transition from
classic to modern. Due to my fascination with the roots of
our hobby, I researched the elements from the past which I
can incorporate with the overall aesthetics of Relic,
seeking guidance from the CHERRY MX team (at least for the
original color codes they used for their OG doubleshots).

KITS
All-in-one
Domikey
offers ‘all-in-one’ kits for all their keycapsets, which is
a combination of all the kits under a keycapset. Relic’s
kits are:
Base, Numpad, Alternate, Icons, Spacebars, and the
Relegendables with its 4 (four) different sets of
Relegendable Icon sticker packs
Base
The base kit supports a
number of MKB layouts: 60% (Tsangan, HHKB, WKL), 65%, 75%,
TKL, Alice, split spacebar, etc.; in Icon-legends modifiers;
and includes a total of
8 relegendable keys (in two different colors)
which you can substitute with your F-row/R1 keys, or
use as macro keys - these relegendable keycaps can be opened
up (the cap is detachable) and you can insert any printed
paper/sticker as a cool way to design a single keycap
legend.
Numpad
The numpad kit completes
your full-sized and 1800 layouts, or your separate
numpads.
Alternate
The alternate kit
includes shine-through (LED) keycaps, Icon-Text-legends
modifiers, and
CHERRY MX
logo novelties (which has been officially approved by the
brand) to achieve the aesthetic of vintage keycapsets.
Icons
The icons kit includes
newly-tested (by Domikey) icon legend alternative keys for a
number of layouts’ bottom rows, including basic Mac support
(with special R4 1.50u blank ‘Command’ keycaps for a Tsangan
layout).
Relegendables
The relegendables
kit includes two types of relegendable keys:
Type 1 -
R1-profile base keycap, with the regular transparent top
cap
Type 2 - R1-profile transparent shell to cover the
base keycap
This kit comes with a total of 4 icon
sticker packs (SET A to SET D) with icons you can pinch away
using your tweezers, and use as inserts for the relegendable
keys. It also comes with 4 different large circular stickers
per set that represent the gradient of Relic.

We (Domikey and I) have already ran a test print for
the initial design of the relegendable sticker icons but the
one you see above will be the final iteration I designed. If
you are new to the community or unfamiliar with the design
possibilities of a relegendable keycap, you may watch the
video below, showing how to use these stickers:
Spacebars
And of course, Relic
has a spacebars kit to support other uncommon layouts.
/*Note:
1.00u and 1.25u keys are R4 blank concave profile keycaps
DESKMAT
SPECIFICATIONS
900mm x 400mm
Rough
texture top
Natural rubber-base
I want a
functional deskmat, so I changed the original deskmat design
into this new one. Whenever I change my keycaps, I always
want them organized. People can use this deskmat to arrange
their keycaps while building their boards. Since Relic is
Cherry inspired, I incorporated the same elements as the
previous deskmat design while adding some ‘cherry balls’.
