Keycaps look great on this illuminated keyboard, but no photos of the keyboard illuminated - preferably in the dark, only the illuminated switches. The product photo of illuminated /dev/tty/ on the DROP + MATT3O MT3 /DEV/TTY KEYCAP SET shows these keycaps do not appear to be shine-through and it's not obvious how they will look with the different case and switches.

AJCxZ0They are ABS - not shine through. How do they look in the dark with backlight? Really? Like every other whitish keycaps without shine through. Imagination taking a holiday? You linked to the keycap page. Did you not notice the PHOTOS (850) link on the page?
I have the regular set and the Triumph set. They both look and feel marvelous. For a real treat, check availability of the Unicorn Barf add-on.

AJCxZ0As @Genjokoan mentioned these are not shine through. We can grab a photo for you though. Give us a day and I'll post something here.

AJCxZ0They were nighttime shots with a room lamp on, but if you're looking for zero lights here you go. These keycaps are really thick doubleshot PBT and not cheap see-through ABS. The light does bleed through the red keycaps, but not as exaggerated as these photos show.
Edit: I forgot to mention that I use Zealios V2 switches, the switch top is clear. The ones included in this set look like opaque black, so the back lighting will likely be less pronounced unless you plan to swap out your switches.

kokinThank you, @kokin. Those are great photos and exactly what I wanted to see.
It will be interesting to see how different this keyboard will look when @Jyri_Drop posts the photos.
