Green girlies unite! This is the Drop CTRL V2, with Gateron Yellow Pro switches for most of the keyboard and AKKO V3 Penguin switches for the space/enter/shift keys, and then Osume Dalgona + Matcha Marshmallow profile key caps. Currently ordered and working on building a black one for writing, but t

This is my most exciting build to date! I took my first keyboard ever, the Drop CTRL V1, and spray-painted the aluminum top casing with lavender paint. I then added Gateron Yellow KS3 Switches and hand-lubed Everglide Panda V3 Gold-Plated Mounted Stabilizers. To finish it off, I used the Drop + Bees

Hey guys, I’m trying to get my son a keyboard for gaming. He currently has a drop ctrl v2 but wants something smaller 60/65% size. Any recommendations for something custom?
