[IC] BOLO LOVELESS ☺ | GB live!
« on: Fri, 26 May 2023, 13:06:03 »
Hello everyone! This is Aquarius. I would like to introduce you to the first set of keycaps I designed, named “LOVELESS”.
Intro
This set of keycaps is full of lovely pink, with pure blue legend, is inspired by the changes in my mood when my last relationship broke up, including pain, sadness, depression, and finally slowly letting go. Pink is my favorite color and blue is his favorites, so only these two colors are used in the whole design. In fact, I was not familiar with keycaps before, because he liked it, so I gradually got to know it and designed this set. I hope you can also feel my mood and love!

Looks like you're missing a 1.25 shift and R4 alpha ( <> or \ ) to cover terminal ISO.

I can't see anybody wanting to use novelties to fill those gaps.

Please work on your kitting, there is no hhkb support in this set (Split backspace, R1 |\ key, R3 control) which hhkb support should be in every base kit IMO, you're also missing terminal ISO keys which someone else has mentioned in the thread, which if your including iso you need to have that as well.

cherry blacks - unlubed - filmed and springswapped with tx 55g mediums - alu Plate | pretty happy with this, the blacks were cherry picked so they weren't that scratchy to begin with, but currently breaking them in, may lube them with a dry lube like ro59 or ptfe powder.

lubed with tribosys 3203 | like topre a lot, prefer it lubed but did make less tactile but that might have been a skill issue. probably will get more tactile over time as the domes age.

bad orange alps lol | definitely needs a restoration. planning on wax boiling them and maybe a replacement pcb because the board has only 2 key rollover apparently.

gateron yellows - lubed with 205g0 - 62g tx mediums - pc plate | probably my favourite keyboard already, feels super nice and sounds pretty good, it's got a great layout as well. probably gonna build this with mx browns, I feel like it would suit the board more.

stock with silent reds | Pretty cool looking board, the silent reds are actually good, they are smooth and I don't mind the mushiness (it's not even that mushy as well). the layout is pretty weird, but is useable. will probably mod this in the future. maybe a pcb and plate swap, change the keycaps to something dolch like, and also spring swap the springs in the silent reds.

Because the price of this set is very cheap, considering the cost, we have reduced a few keys, but we will consider adding some later. :D

With that being the case, you may want to remove ISO keys entirely to reduce costs further, as without proper terminal ISO support, this set isn't going to be much use to ISO users.

I say this as a UK ISO user.
