Just checking -- are those 1.75 and 1.25 spacebars convex!? I'm excited to see those starting to appear in sets. For the 40s kit, may I suggest including at least one 1.25 R3 enter key? It's useful for layouts that are overall 12.5u wide, e.g. the UT47. Also, two convex 2.25u spacebars in the 40s kit would be a great addition.

Nice job on the set overall. Between this and Apollo, it may be a tough choice, but the num pad in the base kit is a plus for me.

I believe those keys are in the Extension kit, I'll be posting individual renders of the kits soon, working on those right now.

I don't think there is enough interest to get these kits to hit MOQ if I were to offer them in the GB. Sorry. If enough people are interested in those kits let me know and I can look into getting some into the GB, but as of right now there isn't enough interest for neither norde nor colevrak.

I'd love to see the black accent stay, and I was hoping for a Rama novelty.  However, I will be buying this regardless.  :thumb:

I'm really digging the novelties! What does 'raise' and 'lower' keys relate to?

I'd agree with those above that I'd like to see the black accents stay. But I understand ditching them if there's any complications with them staying. What is the benifit of them being left out? A lower price point?

Please consider adding 1.75 enter key to the 40s kit. I know that the "control" can be used but 1.75 is THE most often demanded enter key for 40s boards.

Second the 1.75 enter key, and it should be R3 just to explicitly state it.

Looks like a 2u convex in the Extension kit, which I would want too! Can a 1.75 convex space be included as well?

The earlier preview had some dark spacebars, including what looked like a 1.75 convex key, but on further scrutiny, it looks like a dark 2u convex spacebar. In any case, the dark accents looked great.

I currently already have a NA vendor, ProjectKeyboard, I do not feel the need for another North American vendor, sorry.

Thank you so much you guys! I can't wait to show you guys more things for the set. Currently working on everything still ;)

want an individual novelty kit.

I'd love to do that, but don't want Sony or From Software coming after me, plus the set was designed after volcanoes, with the set only being three colors (that's right, I'm bringing back the black accent) I would need more ideas for novelties, right now I am too focused on other kits and other things in my life, but if you or anyone else has ideas please let me know! I'd love to work on potentially having a novelties kit.

A 3u spacebar is really niche, I do appriciate your feedback but I do not believe I will add a 3u spacebar to the kit. Sorry

I've seen 7 other people ask, and that's still not enough, if MOQ wasn't an issue for the kits I'd totally make it, but you are going to find out that GMK sets rarely ever have NorDe kits because they never make it.

BTW, may I point out a small flaw in the base kit's render as it stands now?

You can if you want, but as of right now the All the kit renders are out of date. I am working on posting new updated kit renders. Small leek: The set has grown from 3 kits to 5 kits. ;) I'll post more info once I get the renders. Thank you for the continuous feedback, I really do like it, I take most of it into account :)

Perfect. When you revise the base kit, do take into account that it's missing the alpha-colored R1 key (the mod-colored version of that key, and both versions of the R1 `~ key, are present).

I love this set! super excited.
Maybe add an additional escape key with red legend? Or an accent set? This way you could keep the minimalist aesthetic or go for something with a bit of color? Maybe you could add a kit like the ERR kit on GMK Dracula?

I really like the Ghost kit and the idea of an reverse Ash that has already been mentioned.

At least an R4 1.5u Function key and if possible paired with an R4 1.5u Code key would be nice to have in the base kit.
Colevrak kit would have been nice too but I don't see it happening either, sadly.

Either way I'm excited for this set and I'm definitely in for at least one.

Thanks man! As for the 1.5u fn key not too sure about that one, I am making sure that two 1.5u code keys make it into the extension kit as I do like using code for both an FN key and a win key on a WKL board. I always make my right alt key my windows key lol.

Alright, thanks for at least considering it. I'll keep watch for the upcoming update.

I use the Function key on my right Alt key to access the first layer for often used keys like the arrow keys from the home row but I guess that's only convenient for smaller %-layouts.

That is in the realm of possibility, currently her commissions are closed, but I can message her and see if she would be willing to make some prints. I'd love to hang this one and the ghost themed one in my apartment!

been a lurker in r/mk for months and after JTK Arctic, this is the second set that really caught my eyes.
i'm really loving the darker alpha and bright mods. i might have missed it, but i haven't seen it before and makes it very unique.
excited for the alternative deskmat design though since i'd like a matching deskmat but the current one is too 'busy' for me.
anyway, if the pricing is right, i'll definitely get on this!
