To the artisan keycap makers at Artkey Universe, our creations started simply as a hobby, which then transcended into a passion, and, finally, our life work.
To the artisan keycap collectors, these tiny pieces of art at the fingertips are initially something to admire for a moment and, later on, become subjects of appreciation.
To both, artisan keycaps have forged a lasting bond between everyone in this community. Each keycap holds within itself a story, depicting a journey of its holder.
In this article, we would like to share with you all some of the stories by the people of the Artkey Community: how they took their first step into this rabbit hole and what this hobby has brought them.
Starting with mechanical keyboards, I delve into artisan keycaps, I discover talented handmade brands and unique designs. As the collection grows, I'm able to expand on custom switches, keyboard layouts, and collaborate with fellow enthusiasts. The joy comes from the endless search of the community of artisans and mechanical keyboards, looking for rare items to enhance the collection and I really like your products, I find and collect these set that I like. I wish you more and more development to launch quality products and an increasingly large community. I always follow and support you, love you Artkey Universe :*
At the beginning of 2023, a touching and fascinating journey begins - the collection journey of exquisite Artkey Sirius craftsman keycaps. I am ZZ, an ordinary Sirius lover. The journey begins with the discovery of Sirius, a series that transcends the ordinary. The vibrant colors, exquisite details and thematic inspiration of these artisan keycaps capture the hearts of collectors and inspire the desire to embark on a meaningful collecting journey.
In pursuit of rarity and exclusivity, collectors find themselves chasing limited edition Artkeys. Each launch becomes an exciting event, with a mixture of anticipation and excitement as the sale counts down. This journey goes beyond the act of collecting. Interacting with the passionate Artkey community, sharing experiences and connecting with other enthusiasts adds a layer of camaraderie to this adventure. The shared joy of acquiring a coveted keycap and a mutual appreciation of artisan craftsmanship serve as the glue that binds this diverse community together. I have gained many friends, friends with whom I can share my happiness every day. It also made me feel that artkey is warm and the managers really love this job.
As the series grows, so do the features of the keyboard. What was once a mundane input device is now a canvas decorated with Artkey's glow. The act of typing transforms into a tactile and visual experience, testifying to the collector's journey through the realm of handcrafted keycaps. Not only did we collect a collection of beautiful keycaps, we discovered a vibrant community and a new appreciation for the art of transforming a keyboard into a personal masterpiece. Thank you, I will always keep this hobby and cherish the happiness they bring me.
I literally robbed three of the master minds in this community, and it took me almost a year to get four of the noisy noights sitting together. I'm glad I still talk to them from time to time and asked them to join some of my commission as my gratitude. Another precious cap is Houdin Sirius which i won from the raffle. And I engraved the 'DloveA' for my beloved girlfriend~ It's quite meaningful for me since its my first raffle win Sirius and my girlfriend won it for me.
These commissions are literally results of sweats and tears. I worked a lot on them from sketch to the final finished, from creating sketches to communicating with Artkey team and my teammates on the prototypes and revisions. Had a lot of funs and fights, all worth it for a perfect collection. My precious!
I was sucked into this plastic business 6 years ago. Not actively collecting anymore but I still can't resist when something matches my colour pops up. Biggest regret is that most of my sets will forever remain incomplete.
Nidavellir is one of my favorite set!It's taken me a long time to collect them, although I don't know when Sirius will arrive,lol.
Artisan bring me infinite joy in my daily life, Every time I see the artkey team create a superexcellence creative shape for each character will be excited!!
Hope artkey team can bring more interesting designs! Also hope that gays can find our own fun on the Artisan!
Here's one of my favorite words: "INFINITE PROGRESS,INFINITE EXPECTATION"
“无限进步,无限期待”
I discovered Artkey towards the end of 2019, when I started getting into mechanical keyboards since 2018. I began exploring ways to decorate my keyboard with more style, and that's when I came across the King design by Artkey. I was impressed. Luckily, after some time, I managed to acquire the King Camping colorway, one of my favorites, and had it in my hands. After that, I got hooked and acquired many more designs like Porcus, Felix, Kibou, Voidwalker, and the more I owned, the more addicted I became. Having new designs to obsess over became one of the hobbies I couldn't let go of in the future.
It all started last year when I delved into the world of custom keyboards. As I sank deeper into it, I was introduced to another rabbit hole called artisan keycaps. It was then that I laid eyes on my first ever artisan keycap; the Sirius Striker. I was pulled into the immaculate details on the visor and it was then that I was captivated by the little Sirius that I looked further into Artkey Universe, and even other artisan makers. From then on, it was a hard-fought journey of slipping into the DMs of other community members who were keen on sharing part of their collections with me xD If you told me 2 years ago that I would be spending this much amount of time and money into artisan keycaps, I would look at you with ridicule. But now as you can see, the collection has grown so large, I had to order another tray to house these guys. The best thing about all this was all the friends I made in the community who showed me the way and helped me to get to where I am today xD Of course, thank you to Artkey for creating such wonderful art pieces and for nurturing such a good community for me to be a part of. Looking forward to many more years to come.
It all started when a friend of mine took me to a keyboard meetup. While there I won a giveaway for an artisan keycap. This got me interested, and I decided to look more into them. My friend wasn't super into them, but he pointed me to some discords which eventually led me to Artkey. The 4 Monsters were the first artisans that really grabbed my attention with the intricate details and casting style. I still have my favorite 4 monster set with logo.
Trading and interacting with people to complete monster sets was something amazing. The community was still relatively small, but I knew they were creating something special. From stressful FCFS Hipo sales, exciting Esc-Ape fulfilment sales, and criminally underrated Feather'born raffles, Artkey settled in on their second long running sculpts in Medievals. They immediately were something I knew I wanted to collect.
I started off collecting just the Kings, but in my journey I came to really appreciate the rest of the sculpts and decided I wanted to complete sets. There've been many people along the way that have helped me that I'm eternally grateful for.
Why I love Artkey isn't just because of the incredible art that they create, but because of the community they've built. The selfless people that gravitate towards Artkey, and artisans as a whole, is what has kept me around for so long.
Our bond came from a chance encounter. I have always heard that artkey is the ceiling of the keycap world. What is the reason why so many people are addicted to it? I collected a porcus for a regular face mask with a curious mindset. When I received the physical item, I was amazed. Whether it's workmanship or art, it has brought me unprecedented impact. I began to want to learn about artkey, feel their design inspiration, and explore the stories behind each series. Gradually, I embarked on the journey of collecting artkeys. Every little cutie has a soul and life, but obtaining them is not easy at all. You may regret not getting them, or get excited about them. Only those who are truly crazy about them can feel it. I really want to collect more cute little ones, hoping they can join my big family and feel the warmth of their brothers. Finally, I would like to thank Artkey for providing a platform that has allowed me to meet more like-minded friends. We come from different countries but share the same hobbies. We often discuss our collections and gains, share our happy lives, and talk about everything. I really like this atmosphere. I am grateful for meeting you, and I believe we will go further together.
