Starman Custom Cherry MX Keycap

Description

This was a custom Cherry MX keycap that I created using Blender. The keycap fits all types of Cherry MX key switches.
The render on the left was also created using Blender. I've used some subsurface scattering with no specular reflection to give the keycap a soft plastic feel and have added a slight depth of field defocus effect in post processing to give a feel of scale.
The image on the right is the completed print from Shapeways using their "Frosted Detail" plastic. The person who ordered the keycap and took the photo (Thanks cherp!) also dyed it using glass stain to create the yellow finish and then painted the eyes black.

The star keycap is available here: shpws.me/ryjT and there are lots of other 3D prints that I'm trying out also available in my shop: www.shapeways.com/shops/gizmob…
