[IC] DSA Take Out | MAJOR UPDATES
« on: Fri, 20 December 2019, 10:16:25 »




Please Consider DSA Take Out

Howdy! I'd like to drop a project I've been working on for the past few weeks, that I'm really excited to share!

Inspired by your typical take out bag, DSA Take Out aims to embrace the ‘bootleg’ aesthetic created from cloned fonts and blurry single color illustrations.

This set if all goes as planned will be SP dyesub DSA. It uses SP WAN, and SP RBR for plastics, Pantone 1795 C and Pantone 440C for legends.

-----------

Charity? Yep! I plan on donating 25% of the profits to Meals on Wheels. Obviously, food related, this charity is extremely transparent and goes to a great cause.

-----------

UPDATE!

After mulling over this, and looking back on interest form, I've come to realize that this set just isn't going to make high enough MOQ to justify having external vendors. However, I still want the set, and I know others are in the same boat. Because of this, I'm going to be running this on my website and fulfilling it myself at a lower MOQ. Still going to be SP. Still going to be the same design. I'm going to be contacting SP this week about quotes, and if all goes well I should be able to run this in either May or June.

New kits have been designed to reduce the amount of SKU's, and maximize compatibility.

NEW KITS!

I like the set, though the theme is sorta sailing over my head a bit. I will also say that I think it would look much nicer if the legends were centred.

Non centered DSA legends make me sad. Also, I wish the icons weren't just the standard shapes.

Blanks for ergo support? I understand if you don't want to run them here, since we could order them from SP ourselves, but this would look sharp on a boardwalk.

Thats hot! Monoprofile sets have so many options for which legends go where that kits like that actually work great (compared to sloped profiles where the creator has to guess what legends are needed, and where they go).

Also! Going to be getting deskmat designs up for feedback and vendor information done within the next few weeks, hopefully around the new year.

I'll take your entire stock thanks. The deskmat is probably the spiciest one in existence at this point, especially with all of the keyboard puns.

Will NORDE, which usually gets TAKEN OUT in other sets, be included in TAKE OUT?

Maybe it will if it also includes HUNT homing keys. ;) ;) ;)

Update!

As the tin, I'm really sorry to say I'm having to put this project on hold. Currently I'm a full time student, and in my junior year, which as far as the degree program I'm in means a lot more is going on than I'm comfortable dealing with while trying to attempt to set up a group buy. If anyone wants to talk to me about changes that they'd like to see made, or about possible vendor things, I'd be open to it, but there won't be anything going forward until after April at the latest.

Thanks
