Title: [IC] GMK Blue on Black (Bob, Subtitle "Signal") - 11/12 GB opened!
Post by: cocobrais on Fri, 28 July 2017, 22:34:48
[11/12/2017]
Last Thursday I made GB approval but not yet approved.

But I can inform you guys information about US proxy and EU proxy.

United States(also handling whole countries excepting EU and Korea) : https://donutcables.com/product/gmk-blue-on-black-gb/
Europe : https://www.candykeys.com
Korea : http://kbdlab.co.kr/index.php?document_srl=4885028&mid=board_gb_outside

This set will be maded by limited quantities.
 - Base : 150 set.
 - LED + Space bar : 100 set.
 Dead line will be 31/12/2017 but if limited quantities will be reached before dead line,GB closed.
 Also if over base 120 set/LED+Space bar 80 set will be participated, GB will be confirmed to progress.
 if not reached this Qty. in dead line, GB will be droped.

In case of the Donutcat and KBDLAB already opened. So order is possible.
Candykeys maybe today will be opened...

I hope that moderators will see my thread soon and approve  GB.

[22/11/2017]
3D renderings are uploaded

Almost processes to start GB excepting proxy were done.

I hope that I will start the GB with this set soon. .

Hi.
I am cocobrais and come again here.
Burgundy GB will be finished and I have been preparing next GB as below,

Basic concept is 'Signal', but I need some time for point sets. So I write just 'Blue on Black"
And you can find the R4 modi design is same with YURI. I discussed this design with T0mb3ry and he accept to use this.
So I think that this is no problem.

And I will modify something but not fixed yet. Just basic concept (blue on black) is fixed.
- considering other color for side legends.  => Side legends is fixed as blue.
- Some other keys
- Add the point keys ==> Point keys are updateded

Are you interest this keycap set?

- GMK
- Total 144 keys
- ABS double shot excepting side legends. (Side legends is pad printing)
- For Standard 3000 win/winkeyless, 1800 winkeyless/win-winkeyless, ISO, extra left shift for 660M, Some happy user etc.

[attachimg=1]

[08/10, 2017] Updated.
- Rendering is updated.
- Some keys are deleted and added. (Total 147 keys)
*** 1xESC will be deleted and updated...(wrong)
Still I have been considering to make a new kit. (Space bar and 3-lock LED keys set)

[attachimg=2]

[09/09, 2017] Huge Updated.
- Rendering is updated.
- Some keys are added as requests
- NORDE Kit and Space bar/LED Kit are designed.

I'd like to progress this set, but I think that these set will be high price because of so many key/New mold for point key/accent key and Exchange rate....
Maybe in case of the base set, MOQ 150 will be hell.....MOQ 250 will be about $160....So sad.
So maybe I will have to adjust the keys and kits....

[attachimg=3]

[attachimg=4]

[attachimg=5]

[01/10, 2017] Final Update.
Firstly I am sorry for many ISO users.
I deleted many keys and kits for huge diet.  :-[

This is my final update.

I hope that this keyset will be progressed.

[attachimg=6]

[14/10, 2017] Relly Final Update.
This rendering is really final update version.
For ISO, Novelty key was deleted.
And For 1800 winkey user, 6U off centered space bar and related keys were added.
I hope that this rendering will be good for many guys.

Base kit

Space bar and LED kit

Been seeing a lot of hate for icon mods. Isn't GMK 9009, pretty much the most sought after set lately, icon mods?

Anyway, needless to say, I like the icon mods :p and I would prefer the base to be N9 though. There's just something about the full N9 sets that make them them look great, such as skidata or terminal.

I think N9 would look like hydro.  I think the darker black color helps the blue to pop more

I think the mods pop quite well, and it'll still be a different set since you're changing alphas completely.

I know this. I have Hydro.  I still think the deep blue would pop better on black.  I <3 skidata+ and I'm still waiting for it to run again.  Just think using black would be more unique compared to what is currently out there.

need to check the mold to GMK. If GMK doesn't have the mold, we have to make a mold and this will be lead to increase cost. I will check.

N9 is pretty good. But nowdays many sets have been maded by N9 base. I don't want to use N9 in this time.

I'll admit that in the past I was a icon mod detractor but what sold me on this set was seeing the upper icon mods combined with the icon bottom row. Mixed and matched just doesn't look as good.

Any thought of using the icon "fn" that was used in Yuri? I think it would really bring it together.

Okay, good point.

They could still be used as fn "layer" keys to keep up the uniform icon look.

Post by: kekstee on Fri, 04 August 2017, 14:10:19
I have two things come to mind:

1) V4 on CR is a very dark and saturated combination, guess that's a bit difficult. But if you change that and keep the dark/blue theme it would be N9 base or a full "blue Skidata" with N9+N5... a completely different set.
Doesn't GMK offer this exact combination on their Uniqey? How does it look in reality? Any pictures?

2) I love your decision to go with icon mods (and the ISO arrow instead of handbag caps)... except for two: Ctrl and Alt. It's like using a full icon nav cluster. Possible, but really weird.

1) V4 on CR is little bit dark as your mention. But I think that it is not problem. As you know, real force and happy also dark gray on Black but not problem. I will try to get the Uniqey from GMK but I am not sure to provide it. Color concept will be fixed soon.
2) When I check the interest in VIKINGS, some user commented that YURI modi and I also want to use full icon.

I will update new rendering with some point keys and changed layout.

Either is good for me. I just wanna make sure I can get a v4 spacebar SOMEHOW. Since I'm not aware of another way to get one that would match.

I would like to register my interest as Burgundy was a success, but the R3 Control now seems to be gone from the render :'(
If the R3 Control with the ^ icon legend can't be made, could a full-touch R3 CapsLock still be included?

So will the updated version have a blue escape with text "Esc"?
Blue esc was deleted because of add the point keycap. But not fixed yet. Still considering including or not.

Yes, please keep the blue accent "Esc".

Also, if an extra R4 | \ keycap was added, this set would fully support US international on ISO  :)

capslock is 2 ea as center stem and offset stem. I think that full-touch R3 capslock means center stem capslock.

Yes, please keep the blue accent "Esc".

Why would this be sooo much more than Coniferous? I only see 3 new molds the esc clouds and the 2 sizes of cloud win keys. Coniferous had 173 keys and was only 150 at 150. 135 at 250.

Also if it were me I'd drop the kbd lab q and GMK keys. And then if the price was still too high the cloud win keys. The R1 esc novelty alone shouldn't raise moq THAT much. A single custom novelty key run at 150 moq is only like $5 a key. But multiples should be cheaper.

3 molds shouldn't add $25 to the price.

Why would this be sooo much more than Coniferous? I only see 3 new molds the esc clouds and the 2 sizes of cloud win keys. Coniferous had 173 keys and was only 150 at 150. 135 at 250.

Yes, you are right. I have to reduce the novelty keys and some keys. I will updated. And maybe I would have to add the space bar to base and delete the LED keys. It will be helpful to decrease the cost.

GMK has raised their prices, and the euro has gotten significantly stronger recently, so even a 5 EUR increase can be pretty considerable for people buying with weaker currencies...

For example, KRW or SGD

USD banter incoming

A bit of a shame we had to loose so many keys but it looks like most compatibility is still present. I think the key I’ll miss the most is row3 control but with this being an all icon set I’ll just pretend the caps arrow means control.

It would make sense to do a swap of novelties for ISO. Novelties don't add compatibility for anyone while ISO will.

Dropping the ISO is understandable if the set gets a good pricing. The inclusion of the icon modifiers makes this interesting. What it is a very unfortunate decision is the lack of a six units off-centered space bar.

The set is a first that put a full icon mod to good use and in an elegant color, nothing better.


It requires an icon Esc key, either replacing the standard one, or additional.

Nice to see ISO and G80-1800 bottom row come back  :thumb:

Could the numpad pad printed side legends be changed to doubleshot on the top? I had never seen these numpad side prints until today, and they unfortunately look very cheap. It's even worse than the "SysReq" and "Break" pad prints usually featured on the Scroll Lock and Pause keycaps.

Side printing was used in 9009 R1. This is just my concept for this set. As you know, I delete the novelty keys to satisfy many request. Maybe side printing is only remained for my concept. I hope your understanding.  :D

Original plan is BOB first. Early this week I contacted to make US proxy but nowdays they are so busy. So they can't join this. Also yesterday I contacted to make a proxy for Burgundy in EU side and They accepted it.
I don't know what is first or same schedule. I will contact other proxy for this set. I expect to meet this soon.^^

Yes, MOQ is 150 set. And in my current plan, if 120 set will be reached by participants, I will absorb the 30 set in my pocket and progress. (not fixed but hope)

Just waiting the GB approval.  ;D

Is there pricing information available? Sorry, if this has been disclosed previously. I might have missed it.
US pricing is....base 129usd , led+spacebar 25usd.


And the Icon Modi Kit?
Isn’t icon mods the only option?

Yeah I know Bob has Yuri Icons as well, but Burgandy's Modi kit comes in a gray color which is great. If only I'd have enough money to buy them all. All Coco's sets are great, even more the upcoming Happy one.

A real shame R3 Control isn't included :( Other icon-heavy sets have included it for completion (Cyan, 9009, hyperfuse redux) which really makes sense.

I guess I'm staying away from this one if my layout can't be perfect :P

EDIT: replaced "only" with "heavy"

I think the issue is that Yuri didn't include a R3 chevron ctrl key, so no legend plate exists for R3, so it would be like a novelty and cost extra.

The R3 control mold and its legend (text version) exists

I am a user of control in place of the shift lock, but I do not think that an R3 with text legend goes well with a full icon set, therefore I support the designer decision to not include such key in the set.

Edit: I regret that some individuals consider its omission a reason enough to let a classic set like this to pass. While I understand that in her mind a "perfect" set is the one that meets all her personal requirements, she should consider that the set should follow a logic, in this case, having a full set of icons for the modifiers, thus, perfect in this framework is a set with only icons as legends for the mods.

And that’s why I was talking about an actual matching chevron key r3. Doing a text nod would be stupid. I know they exist as I always use them. But a single text modifier is horrible. If an icon isn’t doable, then this is the correct outcome.

I'm a he. I do understand the logic. But if I am to spend a significant amount of money on something, I rather spend it on something that makes sense for me and the usage I will give it. If the only option I have for that key is something related to caps lock, oh well... :rolleyes: I'm not a huge fan of this icon bottom row anyway even if I do appreciate the overall aesthetics of this set :) "Perfect" is mostly subjective, most of the time.

I apologize for the gender bender, I meant she as in a persona, or individual. I agree that perfection is the eyes of the beholder, but here, the designer's choices should stick to a particular concept and as I said, I really regret people dropping a nice set like this because of a small detail. I am pretty sure they will regret not having it. People may become tired quickly due to strident color combinations as some other recent sets, or be ashamed to exhibit such colors at work, but a black based set is always elegant and you will never be tired of seeing at it.

Edit: I really liked the original ideas of having Control as a side printed option, but I know many here sincerely hate the side printing. If you are a HHKB user you may want to wait for the upcoming Coco's happy set, that covers that layout, by the way, I think that there the side printed Control was also dropped. I really like the icon mods so with the many options Coco is offered now I should make my mind regarding which buys I will join.

Thanks for your good feedback.
I have been watch the drop(or just reach min MOQ) of black based set but I also think that black based set is very nice. We have to think why we love the 9009 set? 9009 set is not gorgeous and just simple design  but not tired. This has basic color combination using OG cherry design and black based set with white legends also basic color combination. Just my design is blue legends on black based and I believe that blue legends will give a modern feel than OG cherry design. (Also YURI Icon)
As you mentioned before, in design history, I put the R3 control keys in base set. But this was not matched in full Icon design specially Yuri Icon. Many users see the Burgundy R2 Modi Kit. Its R3 control side pad printing was also deleted because of same reason. Just HHKB set is including R3 control side printing because this set has also tab side printing. If not considered tab side printing, maybe R3 control side printing of this set also deleted.   

Always I have been considering designs to give a satisfactions to many users but it is so hard.
Currently I requested the approval GB and still waiting and I believe this set will hit MOQ 150. (FYI, I plan to make this set as only 150 set. limited qty.)
