About |
After such great feedback from round 1 and after more requests than I was expecting, I wanted to bring Rainy Day back for a round 2. I didn't want round 1 folks to feel pressured into getting another round by changing and adding a bunch of things to the set. There were a few changes that were needed though. But as always I am open to feedback and criticism and am happy to make further changes that suit your needs, to the best of my ability.
Important Notes:
- The colors will be the exact same as round 1. The renders may look slightly different though. However the final outcome should be identical or extremely close to round 1. I will have pictures of the real caps below.

Kinda off-topic but it's crazy the kind of numbers sets used to pull, 1700 base kits not including extras!
Nice looking set.
Any chance you'd consider classic legends for Print, Pause, and the numpad (at least just the number key sublegends/arrows). I think it tends to look nicer on icon+text modifier sets. While the cleaner look does seem to go better with icon-only sets. Admittedly, I did Print/Scroll/Pause on Dolch R5 before, but seeing it in person made me change my mind.
for example...

Also, I know it's not depicted as clearly on the render, but can we just make sure that Pg Up and Pg Dn, etc actually have the space between "Pg" and "Up/Dn"? Don't know if I've seen GMK ever go with it altogether, but sometimes they do seem to go with as-depicted renders so just covering ground there by mentioning it.
Otherwise, it's nice to see proper legends on 1.5u Backspace and stepped Caps Lock. :thumb: GLWIC/GB!
I second both suggestion Lightning made here. The classic legends with front print for print/scroll/pause definitely hit different IMO. Then I'm thinking it's just the renders, but I also would like to see a space between Pg & Up/Down on the finished sets.
