Some minor updates on the keyboard. This has definitely got to be the most fragile and hardest thing to work with for this project. Not really done with them claws yet, just need them to harden first. Need to get another one up.

Some 1/2 mold for the top of the keyboard

I take a look into the small bucket next to it and... GOD.. THE KEYS!!! @_@ Basically gonna cover all the keys as I don't have to look at them eheheh. Estimate completion should be by next Friday plus the paintjob. Just an estimate if nothing came up that requires me to run around town.

Finished layering the whole thing. 1 key is missing. The "\" key, gonna have to mod the sides of the keyboard by the looks of it. I've never used the Pause/Break key before so I'm gonna take that key.

This is scary

Thank you notworthy.gif its the little two words like these that makes me mod. I don't wanna have good-looking-but-nothing-new type of mod.



Here we go again...

How it looks like after finalizing every side, about 4 hours ago. I keep the right side kinda plain as I'm a right hander (mouse?). Its not really as fun as the case itself as the thing have like "Handle With Care" stamped all over it. And not a big space for me to explore and turn it into a freak.

After a heavy dose of gripping glue on the keys and the board itself, prep it for paint. Masking tape.

... continue from above


I just did a dual layer black+brown like 2 hours ago. Brown's not so obvious now but its dual-tone just like the case itself. First batch of buttons go first. Then one layer of black for the board. And after that another layer to give it the gloss, and immediately brown highlights for dual tone effect.

Thats it for the whole week + today. Imma highlight it further with brown tomorrow or the next day. And then some slime time (another slow moving process due to the keys =_= ) before 2 final layers of clear spray just like the case.

Now... I have been thinking will I ever finish with the full set. I feel like making a custom mouse pad for it now. Someone please enrol me in Paper-mache Anonymous.

Thanks man. A little reward for your patience. Here..

Finds the purple to be extremely shiny. Although I thought of darkening the whole keyboard and touch up part of it with darker colors, decided not to. Instead of using brown this time, I tried red oxide and it stood out better as a "sticky mod". Then the more I look at it, the more I got used to it so heck, no redo for my "cute" barney keyboard.

Thanks. Do take a moment to ponder on your "too long time" when it comes to modding.

You'll eventually get what I mean and why you should ponder.

Photobucket screwed me. In case if you missed it or too lazy to scroll back a couple of pages, here's some flickr pix of the completed case.
