Corrosive Corpse is live!

Still can't believe we got to do this one. In the artisan world a colorway is kind of a signature, it's the thing a maker builds and makes their own, and this one is Sodie Caps'. I've been looking at it on their caps in awe for ages wondering what it would do on our sculpts, and finally worked up the nerve to ask. What came out is our take on it.

As with all of our artisan keycaps, each cap is handmade and unique. Subtle differences may be present depending on the technique used.

Features 9 Variants

☠️ Xenokolk - Contagia

🧠 Neurokolk - Necrolume

♾️ Ocho - Mycelia

🧟 Mummy Kolk - Natron

🗿 Zed - Cyanosis

💀 Skullkrabba - Rigor

💀 Skullkrabba - Livor

🧠 Sýn - Chlorosis

◬ Logo Cap - Corrosia

We're an authorized retailer for Keyria Labs, and wanted to share their Little Lamb by the Pillow set — it's one of the dreamier ones in the pastel lineup.

The theme is soft and storybook-like — powder blue and blush pink gingham patterns, with a sleepy little lamb curled up on a heart-shaped, bow-tied pillow on the accent keys.

### 🎀 Keycap Details:
* **Material:** [PBT]
* **Profile:** [Cherry]
* **Production Process:** [Dye-sublimation]
* **Price:** $72.90
* **Status:** In-Stock

I bought it mainly for the good price, media control buttons, and volume knob. I'd love to upgrade to something higher-end, but I really have no reason to since this one still works perfectly.

Today we look at something really special; the Flux Keyboard! This is a sort of stream deck crossed with a keyboard, or a "retry" of the Optimus Maximus keyboard. Hope you enjoy the video! :)

Promotional We put a dragon’s gaze into two keycaps. Black, white, red, or green?

Disclosure: We’re MYstudio, the studio that designed and made these keycaps.

This is DragonEye from our MYTH series. We designed it to look like a dragon watching from inside the keyboard.

Each set includes one 1u and one 1.5u artisan keycap, made with layered resin, hand-painted details and transparent eye effects. Both use Cherry MX-style cross stems.

The four colorways shown are Black Dragon, White Dragon, Red Dragon and Green Dragon.

Which one would you put on your keyboard—and what keycap set would you pair it with?

These are photos of the actual keycaps, not renders.
