Okay let is start talk the namtag

cancel ?change ? reserved ? :))

I like it, as long as it's customize-able. Maybe move it slightly down and to the left (ie. give a bit more room between the nametag and the top, and line up the right side with the far right keys)

I love the colours in general but feel like you need one more light colour like light orange or yellow. It just seems to fit the design so much better. But it’s your board mate do what you think is best

This kind of blue would be a killer on this board.
What it is ?which color

It's like a 60's baby blue. It's from the Norbauer Realforce case drop. I think it just fits so well into the design of your board, it's just perfect for it.

cancel ?change ? reserved ? :))

I would cut it off. The overall board look is so perfectly clean, don't ruin the aesthetics by putting a tag on the top.

Keep the elephant weight, but remove the name tag at the top of the board :).

Personally I would like the nametag to stay on but it's not a dealbreaker for me. Any idea on when you'll have a prototype to show us?

To be honest, I like the nametag, but only if it's customizable with our own personal text.

Also, can we please get a render with the right side of the nametag aligned with the right side of the plate? Just move it to the left slightly.

But wait, if you want to replace it with an elephant engraved on the top alu, DON'T! I would prefer the nametag at this point. 
Please no elephant on top.  It ruins the awesome look of the keeb

Can you offer a blank weight option :D? (should cost less to you).  I guess custom engraves are not possible as well?

Colors are nice. Would go for Mao and without name plate.
For me the plate does not match with the clean symmetric look of the case.

above the purple there is the white MAO which OP calls just "MAO" 

That's not silver, not sure what you mean tbh

i think you missed the point

MAO is not the stark white that you're thinking, it's a more greyish color in person

MAO is not a color in the first place and MAO White is the "most white" we can have on alu tho so not sure what's the point

I think the point is that MAO (the technique) will not produce a pure white color as seen in OPs MAO (what he incorrectly refers to as a color) render. It is the closest you can get to white, but it still does have a grey tint to it, and depending on the quality of the factory/their MAO process, this can range to barely noticeable grey to a more pronounced gray. Unless the OP and his factory have found or improved on the MAO process, I think it's very misleading to show a pure white case in his render.

For those of us that know MAO does not produce a pure white, this is not a big deal. However, I can imagine new enthusiasts in our hobby to be led to believe that they will receive a pure white case as per the render.

What about make the MAO white as sample instead of green, you kinda showed the green anod. already. 
Or maybe try to get a white MAO sample on a small piece of alu.

It still wouldn't hurt to see an example of your factory's MAO quality.
