The colors are really lovely but the extra colors set didn't include a backspace key that matched my Das Keyboard. The one included in the base set was fine so I don't know why the extras didn't include the same size keycap.
This is easily one of the most unique sets I own, it also happens to be one of my favorites color wise. Paired with a darker colored board, this set really looks great.
I feel like a DKC shill, but it literally pays for itself a dozen times over.
Was able to get the base kit of DCD Bird for $36 shipped after a 50% DKC coupon, which is WELL worth the price. Now, to find a board to put these on...
edit - added a picture of it on my eventual F1-8x V2 build when it fulfills next year haha
I initially had reservations about the DCD profile, but I gotta say, it's quite good. The texture is a bit too smooth for my preference (smoother than GMK, MW, and CRP to me), so it loses a star (wish half stars were an option) for my preferences but in objective measures its spot on. Legend alignment is near perfect (one legend was slightly off but from normal distance it would be unnoticeable), alpha legends have no bleed, the bird jungle sublegends look really sharp, and the red stands out just as much as it does on the renders. The base kit also covers a lot of the major layouts for a decent price
I threw these on a Keychron Q1 with some Kailh pro purples (though I'll be switching to Baby Kangaroos at some point) and I have been loving them. They look fantastic floating off of the black case of the board. The texture is really great and the sound profile is a little bit deeper than the ABS keycaps I had before. The legends are clear and the birds are nice to look at without being too distracting. I've only been living with them for a couple days but the profile feels natural to type on. Will see how they hold up but I am extremely pleased with them so far.
ThunderManateeI have the black Q1 also and the Bird Jungle desk mat. I like Arqkeebs’ recent Rocky Bird keycaps and think this set would look sharp with my set up (thx for the pics). Do you notice a big difference between the DCX and DCD profiles?
apocalypse_frauWow totally missed this! I think these DCD caps rise up a little more than DCX to me. I feel like I have to reach less with my fingers. My touch typing is extremely chaotic though so take this with a grain of salt.
