[IC] GMK Mecha-01 - Project Mecha-0X GB Live!

[lakeboredom]

Any updates? Still pretty hyped for this set, and I think the awakened alphas child-kit is a great idea.

[GeekGuy]

I’d like to see this one happen. Really good looking set.

[xef]

Love this, especially that esc novelty.

[nguyenhimself]

I can't believe OP is not taking advantage of NGE's debut on Netflix to move this along

[FU11.META1]

Hey GH sorry to leave you in the dark for a month I had to take a break from the project for vacation, but outside of that I have been working hard on the third and hopefully final revision of the set. Thank you for bearing with me through this learning experience and all the massive changes that have happened in the IC thus far.

Novelties mock-ups are complete along with the latest and hopefully final revision of kits. It took longer than expected this time because, I'll admit, revising the set for a third time kind of demoralized me. I was sitting on my hands trying to figure out how to put everything together perfectly. But, I think it was worth it in the end since there are a few revisions and fixes that might not have happened otherwise. Everything is still tentative and some kits could possibly be cut or combined for when the GB actually happens.

Please let me know what you think of all the changes, there are too many to list but the main ones are:
-Eliminating grey from the set
-Changing from Violet C Pantone to 267 C Pantone
-Novelty Kit
-Text mod kit
-Red and orange mod kits
-Numpad absorbed into base kit
-New font and graphics
-New Banner

This will be the last round of IC, so if there is anything you would like to see added or changed to the set now would be the time to use your voice.

If people are still conflicted about the colors I can make a new poll to settle it. I received a Pantone sample for 267 last week along with an officially licensed Eva Unit-01 model and Its pretty close to a perfect match.

New renders will be put up shortly.

Holy **** yes!!!!!

[snarfel]

omg this looks much better and absolutely amazing. Still rooting for an ErgoDox kit.

[Rumblehotep]

congration u done it

[Furikurichemy]

Yep, This is it.

[Grayness]

Great job on the latest revision! Is there any possibility of fitting a R4 PgDn key in the base kit?

[Tree_]

This (Without being a ****) puts any other Eva set to shame. This is amazing. In for Base, Test and Type-S.

[kidpid]

Would much rather have numpad as a separate kit, but other than that everything looks great!

[blakstealth]

The Mod Types looks good!

[despairsray]

Does the Mod Nerv Esc key not have the text "esc" anymore? It looks somewhat incomplete in the new revision since half of the logo is empty.

Everything else looks great!

I agree the nerv mod without any text looks a bit "empty". Other than that I'll take one of everything thank you.

[p_blaze]

My wants:

1. Pure hiragana legends kit pleeeeeeeeeeeeease
2. NERV writing back into that novelty, it looks empty without it
3. More novelties for other angels like Matarael and Sandalphon
4. (pipe dream) Eva mech spread over multiple keys, like in the Noctilocous set. Would probably cost enough to warrant a new kit for it.

Honestly though, I'd buy as is right now, the kits look good to me. Thanks for all the hard work.

[zekkin]

Like with many other sets, full icon mods is a 100% deal breaker for me. Good luck with the IC and GB.

There is a text mod kit for the bottom row that you might want to consider

Yeah I changed it, someone said it looked cheesy and also it limits where you can place it. It does look off without something, I will probably add the ESC back or something else cause of the response here.

1. No guarantees.
2. See above.
3. I went over each angel and I chose these because they were the most iconic and recognizable in keycap form. I would have liked to do a key for each angel but some just wont look right as a key and its a bit overkill. I might add one or two by making a poll and letting the community choose which angel(s) to add.
4. Cool idea but not happening, it wouldn't look right with doubleshot.

5. Thanks

I guess this set is not for you then my friend, although as said I did add the Text mod kit for people that like them.

Cheers on the reply. I'm super ready for this set and I think it'll be the first set that i plan to purchase every kit.

My god you did it you mad man. These look beautiful.
As the guy who complained about the gray alphas, I did feel kinda bad about giving you extra work, but wow, that colorway.
Just one thing: I’m a bit worried about the amount of kits you got here. For ex, is the orange Mod Type really necessary?
Either way, I’m in.

[Rumblehotep]

I personally prefer text mods on sets but I think icon mods fit here thematically

[EMC Labs]

Oh, those alphas are NICE!

[urbantheii]

I am still ALLLL INNNNN

No worries, I think it was worth it. Yeah I know there are a large amount of kits and more than I wanted to run initially. The colored and text mod kits are all things that were specifically requested by multiple people. I might condense and combine them with other kits if necessary.

[fatpolomanjr]

Yes, orange mod Type are 100% necessary. AHH!

Or, at least a little orange. I've got nice things waiting for this set. Might do this instead of GMK Wavez!

Looks like a familiar sculpt, the artisan. Can I ask who the maker is?

Ah, yes! Thank you.

[lakeboredom]

The purple alphas definitely say Evangelion, but I will really miss the grey of the original concept. I thought the theme stood on it's own without being purely unit 01 themed. Loving the artisans, the Angels in particular are spot on.

I'd buy a childkit with grey alphas for sure. But I'd prefer the original grey in the basekit. A side kit with purple alphas would make moq from all the Eva fans.

When you think of Eva, grey is the very first color that came to your mind?
I find that hard to believe.

Yeah, Can't have an Eva 01 set without purple and green in the base.

[fatpolomanjr]

Grey made sense when this was GMK Kaiju. Not for unit 01.

[lakeboredom]

Welp, one day I'll be ready to make my own keyset. le sigh..

I didn't want this to be like one of those anime shoe collabs where you wouldn't know the source material unless you had it explained to you.

[AlcoholEnthusiast]

I guess I'm in the minority but I miss the older version with grey alphas. New one doesn't flow as well imo.

[Anaconda]

Like the new colorway a lot better. Still waiting for 3d renders. Hiragana only set would be cool but if it's too much I understand.

Thanks, I'll be working on renders all this weekend, I could show what I have now but I would like to get a few new boards done so I can show off more of the kits at once.

In the mean time I made a new poll if you would like to choose a bonus novelty for me to do, I will make a R1 1u novelty for the one that gets the most votes:

[blakstealth]

The first 10ish minutes of Evangelion 3.0+1.0 got premiered at an anime expo in France. I hope Unit 01 is successful enough to expand all the way to Unit 08  )

[DillonHightower]

The only thing that would make this better is if you you were to introduce Rows R0 -R5

[stolenweapon]

need this

[Eastji]

The revisions are insane, I will buy literally everything in the GB with some multiples.

[amuri99]

I like eva. need this

[FU11.META1]

+7.11.19 Update
 -New renders added
 -R4 pg up, pg dn, and 1.75 lock added to Test Unit kit
 -Type R and O kits condensed into Type S kit

Fresh hot renders! I will get some bigger board renders done eventually but you get the idea.

I decided to gut the Mod type R and O kits as suggested and combine them with the main novelty kit. This way you don"t have to buy an extra kit for one orange or red accent novelty key.

I'm also on the fence about the berserk alpha kit tbh. It's kind of pulling away from the theme when I think a pure Hiragana kit or pure English kit might fit better here. The poll question in the IC form is a close tie for all 3. But I'm curious to hear what others think.

[fatpolomanjr]

Loving the combined novelties. I wasn't planning to get a planck kit since I don't like GMK on ortho 40%, but after seeing the renders I'm seriously reconsidering.

Love the combining of the novelties, makes it less taxing on the wallet... Even more reason to buy all sets!
