Hello everyone! This is Glove Studio,
I designed a new key cap.


Design Concept
Inspired by the HX-20 released by Epson in 1981, it is the first portable computer with a built-in printer.

When I learned about this computer, I found that this computer is widely loved by some retro illustrators around the world.
Later, I was lucky to find a very new HX-20 in the second-hand market

When it arrived I couldn’t wait to take the keycaps off and study them.
I was surprised to find that it was a double-shot keycap , and the keyboard is a without the top cap design and soft tactile switch.

A few days ago,Domikey swatched the keycaps color for me.

i referenced some details on the HX-20 body to designed the novelty keycaps.

I chose UV silkscreen side engraving in the BASE and Novel kits ,try to make more details in it to enrich the visual effects.
