ne proof avail?
I can state that Ulliam did give me a refund back a while back ago (in 2020 when I was just dipping my feet in) when he decided he no longer had the time to do work that was commissioned. I was refunded in full and accepted his apology. With a wise decision to reduce his workload since, I've noticed he has also recently successfully completed commissioned work for some other sets since then.
People make mistakes and learn, and if he's made an effort to reparation and resolution of issues in the past, then I don't think it's something that needs to brought up again unless it's an ongoing active problem (in which case, sure speak up if you're currently affected).
As such I won't speak any more on this topic as it's just going to derail the true discussion.
I'd rather a Geekhack IC remains on topic on what we like or dislike about this set's design.
Such as how everyone hates the current spacebar novelty haha
Spacebar novelties are hard to get right, and I still debate at times if I like them or not. I do like how it provides another unique canvas to put another element however it's always difficult to keep it clean whilst being interesting enough to warrant its inclusion. i.e. some people love and some people hate Ducky spacebars. They're not for everyone ultimately. When done well, they can be quite compelling (i.e. KAM 80s After Dark gradient grid spacebars; which I took inspiration from to do subtle Seigaiha kit spacebars for KAT Great Wave & gradient bars for KAT Space Dust). Personally I find Varmilo Panda's spacebar super nice despite finding many of the other keycaps in that set unappealing/busy.
But anyhow here, I do get that there are some tribal type designs in cyberpunk culture but I simply don't think many people like that aesthetic overall (hence the trampstamp tattoo comment someone made).
It also doesn't mesh/match with any part of the other novelties, so it just looks jarring. Tribal designs in non culturally relevant settings can look tacky/2muchedge.
EDIT: Sadly I did commission Ulliam for novelty design for another project, however he never delivered and 10 months later, remains silent whenever I DM him.
