RealForce in black & white anyone?

I wonder why I didn't find any, but are there black RealForce boards with white keycaps out there, or vice versa?
Would like to know what they look like.
Feel free to post pics or links.

There's only one Realforce sold "out of the box" that is close to what you're after and it's the 104UB-DK.
It has greyish caps and modifiers though so not exactly white.

The two-tone mod has been done before though and it's so simple that I reckon I could do it in 30 seconds with two 87U keyboards. There might be an example of a two-tone Realforce on geekhack's Topre picture thread. Have you had a look there?

Of course it is!

I prefer it all white, but that's a pretty fetching combo too.

Looks great except for dem damn domes! Would that keyboard companies could escape the hegemony of Redmond!

se7en, Where did you get the ISO keycaps or ISO boards? Actually, I would like to get 6 of the ISO 1.25x left-shift keycaps to use as modifiers on my FC660C. Thanks.

I bought the black TKL 88UB from The Keyboard Company and the white 105UFW from Verkkokauppa and switched keycaps. The expensive way :shock:. There are no ISO Topre keycap sets for sale as far as I know.
