I like the colorway but I don't get the thought process for the novelties. Would love an explanation on them. Like why is there the male symbol and what looks like a pirate ship steering wheel?

Thanks for the engagement Shiro. As the designer of the novelties I can speak to that. The novelty style came about through inspiration from the artist Tom Sachs' hand-written notation, as the key set itself takes heavy influence from his space-related projects. The male symbol you reference is actually the astronomical symbol for the planet mars, derived from greco-roman astronomy, and the wheel is a hand-drawn stylization of the ISO ctrl icon. Hope this helps clear up the intentions!

That graphic is so hot, might just have to buy based on that alone. Only think I dislike is the centered deskmats designs but other than this looks very cool. :thumb:

LOL this was my initial thought too. I like the colorway, interested to follow the progress of this. I did want to ask, how come you didn't want to take advantage of JTK's main draw, tripleshot? Or do you have to go JTK for the novelties? Speaking of novelties, could we get a stepped caps novelty as well? Looks like there isn't one right now
What is 252A3? And why is it on the deskmat, it seems kind of odd that there was no explanation for it. lolMaybe something like X Æ A-12 lol
Please consider adding another EU vendor like oblotzky or mykeyboard to avoid unexpected fee for EU buyers, me for ecample :-[Could you elaborate? I'm not that familiar I assumed prototypist would have sufficed.
But... I already bought a JTK Mars keycap set
(Attachment Link)
hehe. Oh well, mars is a big place. We could probably use a few more keycap sets to honor it.
Yup the main draw was due to the sheer amount of novelties for way more reasonable price than gmk. I also don't know how a double shot spacebar would go over at GMK, but JTK was atleast kind enough to entertain the idea. As for stepped caps we can think about it, but seeing how there are already this many novelties already I am not sure we are in the position to be adding more lol.

Understandable. I hope you do reconsider a stepped caps R3 novelty since you technically have two novelties there; just none of them are stepped. It'd be unfortunate to have to choose to go non-stepped if I want the novelty mod kit, or just completely pass the novelty mod kit if I wanted stepped caps.
Brexit basically. Candy Keys and MyKeybaord.eu operate within mainland Europe where as Prototypist are UK based.Please consider adding another EU vendor like oblotzky or mykeyboard to avoid unexpected fee for EU buyers, me for ecample :-[Could you elaborate?

The deskman is very baller
There must be a novelty key made of plywood, white paint on top, plywood grain on sides.We'll try lol
2u spacebars in alpha colors for 40's? Also please consider having 2x 2u support for ortho!
Pretty cool design going on here, love it.
