DuO Photos
*Note I am not a professional, or a good photographer, some colors or contrasts will vary from screen to screen. Allow for some differences. Thought it could be fun to use photos instead of renders.
There are some slight differences between photos and kits. There were some updates after getting the samples.

This is a little passion project that's been in the slow cooker, for about the past two to three years, in one form or another. Hope you might like it.
While the set cannot be tailored to everyone's individual needs and opinions, I hope that this will both look good to those that might enjoy the idea or colors, and also still potentially be functional to those that might use Arabic in their day to day.
Here is an imgur album with most of the proto photos I took (which I had forgotten to post) :thumb:

DuO was the winner of simon's first Battle Royale, Keycap Edition! What a fun stream that was, thank you all so much!

Hi! Great set – but I noticed a mistake in the NORDE set: The sublegends on Æ and Ø are wrong. Right now, they have the same sublegends as L and Z; They should be the same sublegends as Ä and Ö, (except switched, of course: Æ should have the same sublegends as Ö, and Ø should have the same sublegends as Ä).

Thockeys has shipped their orders, I received mine a week ago. I would think KBDfans would have shipped theirs, too, so maybe it's on the way to your vendor still.

I've have DuO since August 4th.

This is insane. Vendor has yet to ship my set and we are in November now...

I was too blind to see ahead All my shortcomings taught us something
I purchased Extras from Thockeys. I will try it out on MP4-2B next year.
No red keyboard to use it on now. f1-722?

Thanks for a very nice-looking Arabic set! :cool:
Was the problem with NorDe (Æ and Ø) fixed? or are the sublegends still those of L and Z?
