Midas DSA: “A Touch of Gold”
First interest check, bear with me and please let me know if there’s anything I’m missing or doing wrong. Very, very open to suggestions.
My goal with this keycap set is to make a simple, elegant set in the timeless black and gold colorway. The set will be in SP doubleshot DSA profile, using ABS color codes NN and YG. (All colors from: http://pimpmykeyboard.com/colors/)
The base kit is meant to support standard ANSI 60% and TKL layouts. It also includes a 1.75u Shift and 1u Fn to support the popular split right shift layout, as well as a stepped caps lock. Scooped/non-scooped F and J keys are included. The base colorway is simple gold on black (with a gold spacebar and Esc), as I feel that this is the least gaudy color scheme. All modifier legends will be in all caps per SP’s usual DSA lettering.

The numpad kit is fairly standard.

The adapter kit is meant to support some of the more common layouts. The key sizes go, by row, 1u, 1.25u, 1.5u, 1.75u and 7u.

New to this iteration - I’ve split out the ISO kit into a separate kit. Standard UK ISO keys included - I’m not an ISO user so please let me know if there are any changes to be made here.

Additional homing keys to support additional layouts.

Here’s a 40% kit.

And an Ergodox kit.

A blank kit, with VE.A spacebars and some other filler keys.

Finally, we have two alternate color kits available. The first adds golden alphas + function keys for a brighter experience.

The second is a gray modifier kit. (I only work in black… and sometimes very, very dark gray.) Color code here is GB.

Finally, a picture of the actual color chips:

IMO, YG and NN look like the best candidates for a black/gold look, but please let me know if you feel otherwise. An album with all the relevant SP color chips is here: http://imgur.com/a/YFu3z
Things to be worked on:

  1. Novelties
  2. SP Price Check
    Please let me know your thoughts, thank you!
    EDIT: Suggestions to be implemented:
  3. Gold enter key and gold arrow keys as suggested by /r/hervuli Done!
  4. Split out ISO kit, add remaining UK ISO keys as pointed out by /u/awjc Done!
  5. Deus Ex-related novelty as suggested by /u/swimming-bird and many others - 2 1.25u triangle keys, 2 1u triangle keys
  6. Alternate modifier kit - dark gray as suggested by /u/Sitiak_ Done!
  7. Switch stepped caps lock into the base kit as suggested by /u/PlainEminem Done!
    Novelty Idea Ground:
  8. Deus Ex Golden Triangle - no issues with this one, will definitely be in a potential novelty kit
  9. Hand of Midas from DotA
  10. Giant dollar sign
  11. Bag of coins
