Resources

To help budding designers of keycap sets, and people who provide rendering services, Proto[Typist] is making render files available for our most popular boards.

These files are free to use for render purposes only, and must be credited as directed for each file. They can not be used for production, engineering or re-production purposes. Any use without the proper credit may result in these files being removed from public availability.

By downloading these files you agree to:

  • Not share the files directly, but point others to this page,
  • Not to re-produce, manufacture or re-create these files as physical samples
  • To only use these files for serious interest checks; not for memes or jokes
  • To include the correct credits for the platform posted to (i.e. Insta account if posted on insta, or written credit on GeekHack)

Any use outside of these cases requires permission from Proto[Typist] keyboards prior to publication.

You can render these boards in any colour combination you like, but I've included Group Buy colours where applicable.

For permission for any other use case please email jae@prototypist.net or reach out via discord.

      Notes on Gasket Files:

      • Matilda - two of the same gasket are needed
      • Allison - Two of the same gasket are needed, but one is flipped on installation. If using adhesive you need one gasket with adhesive on the top, one with adhesive on the base.
