Yeah it is silver. I have never had a board where I could actually notice the plate before, but this one kind of pops out. I hope that alternating plate colors become a trend because it looks pretty cool. I have seen some other people on KBD making some crazy anodized plates that look awesome too.

Red plates seem to be a big hit, I'm not a huge fan of red, but I can appreciate good color schemes

Yea the KMAC2 looks really good with the red plate. I was surprised that the LZ-GH didn't have like an orange plate or something like that.

I think the reason for that is because LZ's team wanted to use a stainless steel plate so add extra weight and SS can't be recolored with the anodize method.

Your soul is still intact. It's a different shade, not as intense as yours

hoshidishi suggested that I put CCnG on my new KBC Poker, so I figured I'd give them a whirl. Absolutely hated the set on my KBT Pure with MX-Blues, but on the MX-Blacks on my Poker, they're actually quite nice. Makes a world of difference on the Blacks.

Someone else did something similar to this awhile back, but I thought I would try it out anyways. Kind of nice!

You need to add a RA set into its rotation too!

mickd · « **Reply #2713 on:** Sat, 23 February 2013, 00:11:41 »

Let's not get too crazy here

Though I do regret not getting an RA set back then. Funds were a bit too tight. Klaxon will rectify that soon though

Cool, I just ordered a grey set myself and am impatiently awaiting their arrival, can't wait. Had a chance to try out an imsto thick PBT and was sold on the spot.

Is that the all-blue keyboard you brought to the Matias meet? I can't believe no one snapped any pics of it..

Acetrak · « **Reply #2720 on:** Sat, 23 February 2013, 11:21:57 »

emptythecache was the previous owner and he had some pics on here somewhere

Sifo what set is that? I know that's the mana bottle from Keypop but what keycap do you have that matches it?

Vintage · « **Reply #2723 on:** Sat, 23 February 2013, 15:45:18 »

Looks like IMSTO light blue PBT to me.

Nice case btw. Looks awesome.

Sifo · « **Reply #2724 on:** Sat, 23 February 2013, 15:50:09 »

imsto blue pbt, yeah.

I'm going to mix and match it with his white ones too when those come in

tsangan · « **Reply #2725 on:** Sat, 23 February 2013, 15:52:40 »

Got a surprise in the mail today!
Sorry for the potato pictures. I shattered my 4S's screen yesterday and it totally kills both the ability, and enjoyment of taking good pictures.

I LOVE not having a unicorn board. Looks great, thanks RiffRaff!!!!

it would be cool to get darker blue caps to use as a modifier set with those.

Sifo · « **Reply #2733 on:** Sun, 24 February 2013, 22:27:43 »

Once I get new key caps in I'll have to make a thread for you guys to help me vote which look is the best because I'm gonna be pretty torn between my options. So far everyone loves the all blue and the G H being white

laffindude · « **Reply #2734 on:** Sun, 24 February 2013, 22:45:33 »

That looks great with the backlit LEDs coming from the bottom. Are the LEDs at their lowest setting? I've been thinking of getting a Ducky to put my blue imsto PBTs on there.

L4yercake · « **Reply #2743 on:** Mon, 25 February 2013, 19:12:38 »

@keymaster

Its on the brightest of the 5 settings. I was worried that the LEDs would shine through the caps like they did with another thick keycap, but it looks like these are dark enough and thick enough too not let that happen.

Not sure about blue, but I'm pretty sure they come through with the red wasd blank imsto set. I remember seeing a photo posted by alixinhzai.

All LEDs like those are magenta. Some companies call them pink and others call them purple, but they're the same thing. The only other LED close to purple, is UV, but they're not very bright and they're more blue than purple imo.
