I dig it. Especially since I came up with a similar set on my own

Regarding alpha colors: I'm cool with either. L9 is a little more beige, which would def complement the pink I think - if a beige/warm tone set is a goal, consider going towards BV from N9 as well.

Hi! I'm chiming in for 40% support, especially the minivan. I also wanted to point out that a recent GMK group buy ran at $155 per base kit and was able to cover a wide range of users: ANSI, ISO, and 40% as well.
Here is a photo of all the keys that were available in the kit.

Ooh this is very close to what I included in my base, just adding ISO & 40% :eek:

It is! That is why I wanted to mention it because $155 was a very fair price and having such universal compatibility allowed the MOQ to be reached.

I think you should switch base and add-on spacebars

Since the point of the kit is to have rose gold theme, it makes sense that the more plain non-rose gold option is an addon.

Hit me up on Mech Market in several months months if any of you dont like it.

Copypasted from the reddit IC:

A keyset that includes gold somehow? Yes please.

Bit of a unreasonable request - any chance of a kit with all the alphas black with gold legends?

But yeah, im pretty much guaranteed in.

Looking at CP in front of me, I think it's too white for the overall feel. Maybe choose the more cream one (L9?) like in the render with Rama's X?

I've been looking at pictures of Stormtrooper (CP) online, and it seems to look more creamy depending on different lights.

Once I get the color samples from GMK I'll be able to compare a little better, currently I only have Pristine (L9) which I find a little too yellow. If you have a CP set, do you mind letting me know which picture is more representative?

GMK Oblivion Hagoromo alphas uses CP

it's basically the RGB equivialent of 235/235/235 or so, a slight off-white.

What board is that in the top image?

It looks (to me) like CP falls more in line with the RAMA renders - which is great, as those are what initially got me excited about the set!

3K or L9 also seem like great options, but either way I'm 100% in.

Haaaaaandrew · « **Reply #122 on:** Sat, 10 March 2018, 09:47:11 »

I mentioned it on reddit but I'd love to see a 1.75u Enter and a 1.25u R3 tab added to the the extras for staggered 40% compatibility.

Lisinge · « **Reply #123 on:** Sat, 10 March 2018, 14:26:22 »

Hi Olivia.

This set looks absolutely amazing!
My girlfriend instantly fell in love with this set when she saw it and sent me a text with a picture saying that she had to have it! She loves everything rose gold too. So much that we are getting her first mech board cerakoted in a custom rose gold color.

The problem we are having is that she's not as big of a nerd as i am so she doesn't touchtype and has to look at the keys to find some characters.
And we live in Sweden so iwanted to hear if there is any possibility of a nordic (SE NO DK) kit or for that to be included in the iso kit?

Does anyone know any stats on nordic kits reaching moq?

if it's not massdrop i am skeptical about a NORDE kit making MOQ, since the only ones that have ever done it organically are ~~GMK nautilus~~ (nope got 82 lol) and GMK laser

but you never know

Thanks puddsy. Yeah i had a quick look after posting and saw the same haha.
That's a shame. One possibility would be mixing olivia mods with alphas from some other set whith white alphas and dark tex. Or even getting custom dyesubbed alphas. I think i saw someone posting a custom dyesubbed set he had made for his wife.

Nautilus reached 105 NORDE kits. And it was the first time that an international kit, and colemak & dvorak have reached the MOQ without the aid of Massdrop.

pomk · « **Reply #127 on:** Sat, 10 March 2018, 18:13:04 »

9009 international kit was made without any help from massdrop, and unlike nautilus it even supported the advertised locales!

You could get 9009 with the international kit. Both still available at mykeyboard.eu. Or just some OG Cherry set. The alphas would be more beige than the Olivia alphas, but some people in this thread seem to like that even more.

Shiny ABS is my goal with keycaps. They feel amazing that way. OG Cherry shiny ABS doubleshots are the best (for me). After two years of daily use, I've finally gotten my GMK Cyan shiny and worn in enough where it almost compares to my vintage Cherry doubleshots. Almost but not quite.

I so agree!!

So, I've come up with a final draft layout that shouldn't change the price very much :eek: We get basic ISO in the base, center stemmed 6u, convex keys and lots of extra 40% staggered compatibility in the extras!! The more uncommon ISO compatibility that wasn't included in the base was removed from the extras. We're waiting on GMK renders but I've attached a KLE to show the changes. I'm super excited to launching real soon ;D

This is such an excellent project with so many quality people involved. It gives me warm feels just to read the thread. Also, the design is pretty.

Incidentally, the below image of is of PerniciousPony's GMK Stormtrooper set on a Norbaforce case, and I have to say, having seen it in person, I don't think it's a very creamy (i.e., warm) white. I could be wrong, but I remember it being closer to a pure white. FWIW.

Haaaaaandrew · « **Reply #145 on:** Thu, 22 March 2018, 15:56:50 »

Thank you for getting those 40% keys into the extras kit, I'm so excited for this set! I noticed you have a 1u R2 "Delete" in the extras kit, but that isn't necessary since the base already contains a 1u R2 "Delete"
