Looks great! How are the colors in person compared to the renders?

Is it just me or is the white arrow key UP the wrong profile?

It’s a bit more saturated than the renders. If you have a Tiffany blue box laying around I’d say they’re pretty close.

Is there a possibility of a R2 in 2021?

Not sure if it's because of lights, it looks a lot more like GMK Cyan to me, which worries me....

I bought the sets because its a lighter color that is closer to TU3 color.......

I just got my sets now, and the color is definitely closer to GMK Cyan than render. The box art color is what the render shows, but the actual keycaps is much more saturated, which is nowhere near the box art...

Much more saturated in person and not as light as the renders. But I can tell you if you have a retail Tiffany and Co box around it's pretty close to it. Not a perfect match but it works for me.

ngl the color matching looks looks kinda wack

pics aren't remotely close to the renders

as someone who was maybe considering extras/aftermarket, looks like it's gonna be a pass

Tiffany color is still slightly lighter.

It's a bit disappointing to me that it's nowhere close to the render. Still look nice since I like GMK Cyan, just not what I was expecting...

Any update from the Oceania / Daily Clack region?

It's kinda disappointing hearing how these were off from the anticipated renders.  Shucks..

Just got mine in as well and opened them up right next to my GMK Cyan set on a board next to it and had to do a double take. It is definitely lighter than Cyan by a fair margin but it definitely not as light as in the renders. I don't hate the set but I am definitely not as juiced to put it on a board as I was when I ordered it.

Here’s some shots side by side with GMK Cyan and what the color should have been and was used on GMK Keyboard & Co (The space bar set and accent keys that are shrink wrapped are from GMK Keyboard & Co)

From Originative Co they were the ones who ran GMK Keyboard & Co which I thought this was pretty much going to be but in full Tiff blue. Like I said I don't hate the set (I'm actually typing on it right now) but the color is not what I was expecting and that is a bit of a let down. For me personally as someone who loves the color Teal and Greens/Blues in general I am totally fine with keeping the set as a back up teal set.

Thanks for the pics versus cyan. I definitely like the colour and think it will be a good kit to mix with other shades. In fact the comparisons to tiffany blue sealed it for me. I've got this on the list to catch later - didn't get in on the group buy obviously :(

Just wondering if anyone else's set seems thinner than the usual GMK sets?  On the same keyboard I am seeing the LED shine through a little on some keys on the Finer Things set and I haven't had an issue with other GMK sets (Olivia ++ Light/Dark, Cafe, 8008)

I was really looking forward to copping this set for my gf, but that color matching does leave a little to be desired. Seems much more cyan than the renders.

I totally understand we shouldn't base our decisions on renders, but the real result does seem quite off.
