A spin-off on our age-old Eden
Unlike several previous keycaps that only require a plain grey base, we cast the base for this planetary series with the iconic Eden effect proudly made by our grandmaster artists to create the frame model. Rewind back to when we were the first to create the Eden, Jelly Key was exploring and researching for new effects bearing our own impression. Finally, the team efforts paid off with the Eden effect being born, an important milestone for many of our keycap generations.
Details are everything
Once finishing with the foundation, we move on to the more intricate parts that decide the essence of these keycaps: inner details. For this Butterscotch series, producing these sophisticated pieces majorly needs an absolute level of precision and requires extraordinary artisanship skills as the terrestrial planet’s surface is challenging to simulate. We have to use various materials to make it look more realistic because this terrain should carry masses of soil, rock, dust, and sand.
With tiny pieces come huge efforts
Other details lying inside each Butterscotch baby are also a result of elaborate efforts from our key-makers, particularly self-propelled vehicles or human outposts in space. This step usually takes the most time as we want these details to be visually clear as much as possible in a size of only from 3 to 4 mm.
Besides the space exploration vehicles, we also build energy stations in space for the astronaut crew when they arrive in Butterscotch planet 
For this specific facility, we focus more on painting to create a lighting effect that resembles an antenna transmitting telecommunication signals to increase its lifelike and authentic features.
The masterpieces are shaped, and they’re yours !
After these components have been completed, we start pasting them onto the previously created base and cast resin again on the entire keycaps. We then use sandpaper of different levels of fineness from low to high to treat the surface after removing them from the mold. The final step is polishing to remove any traces of rough and uneven surfaces, therefore help create maximum transparency.
