Notice the curves in the thing - that's what I want to see. Wink

Do the keyes and board color have to be the same?
Or can I make them a different color?

Here's mine:

*Lack of smooth normals in DeleD simulated

On a serious note. Better shape references would help! I don't have a keyboard like that, so it's tough to judge everything.

I like the entries sofar. Laughing

Daaark: feel free to search for more reference images. Just as long as it's a curved shaped keyboard like the one in the picture.

Well, here's my best shot at it. Smoothing screwed up the board and I didn't notice early enough, so short of remaking it.....

This is the best I can do.
These are not good, and searching the stores didn't help. I did find another image to use, so we shall see how it turns out. I'm not at all happy with the way this one has turned out thus far.

Edit to put up a better image.
Here is the original one
Then this one

jeroen I searched for some reference but couldn't find any high res top view, maybe if you would tell us exactly what the name is of that keyboard? Wink

(something like Logitech abc123 or something)

PS. it would be ALOT easier if we could model our own keyboard, but ofcourse this is more challenging...
