I second this!

Idk. It’s a nice set on a neutral color board. I think it really may be the rainbow rgb making it look so out of place here.

I agree, white all the way is what I'd do here

You can get pudding keycaps pretty cheap which might compliment the look more (try epomaker for a current sale).
Or go with jelly keycaps for a look like this

pudding keycap is a good idea, but the jelly keycap has no letters, I can't accept it.

You can get one that have engraved legends on them, at least on the side, but if pudding keycaps seem good to you, there's lots of fun options with those!

Thank you, i will try😉

I second the opinion about the keycaps ruining the keyboard, not the case,
My opinion is to strictly use pudding white keycaps Maybe pudding pink if you want to go nuts!
Tricky-Note-5405 OP t1_iwv5t7g wrote
I will try the pudding. Thank you!!

The case is fine, the keycaps look bad.

can I ask which keyboard this is?
Tricky-Note-5405 OP t1_iwyxx11 wrote
I customized it by myself. CNC Transparent case and keycap purchased from skyloong.
lithigos t1_iwyzbog wrote
oh okay, just wondering cause I like the look of the transparent case.

That's because it's all over the place. If you want those keycaps and the case, turn on white light.
Acrylic smokey is great in flexibility. It is like a ditto Pokémon. Think bout it, if you'd buy let's say a blue great wave of kanegawa set, you could match colour with blue on RGB or white as accent and it would fit. Red anime themed keycap set with orange led, it would fit. Etc etc.
You can be creative with that acrylic case for sure.
As for specifically RGB rainbow effects, they pair nicer with shine thru, the more the better. Maybe abs pudding keycaps?

Manys recommended pudding. I will try!! And I think the light is one of reason too.
kagalibros t1_ix0htcj wrote
If you look for style over function, I recommend going for abs.
Tricky-Note-5405 OP t1_ixc3nru wrote
I prefer looks and hand feeling. the function doesn't matter.
kagalibros t1_ixd3eqr wrote
Then ABS has way better shine thru but if you use them alot, they get glossy so going for glossy finish is usually better for ABS.
That being said for example hyperX white pudding keycaps have exeptional shinethru but the black once dont and they both are PBT. if you want to mix keycaps, do not go for hyperX.
Tricky-Note-5405 OP t1_ixhygzb wrote
Thx for your advice. I would like to use PBT.

Saw several comments about pudding keycaps. All of the ones I've seen have shinethrough on top for the text, bit are for north facing rgb. Anyone have recommendations for a South facing set?

???????
It does look good! Yea, new keycaps would look nice but I really think the issue is lighting. Get just some red lights going instead of the rainbow rgb and the aesthetic will be pulled together better
Tricky-Note-5405 OP t1_iwyyhbm wrote
Sure, it's good. I think the biggest problem is the terrible photo!!
Phantexim t1_iwsytbl wrote
The case is fine, but the keycaps really don't match at all. I'd go for a single color like white or something transparent to match the case better.
