Hello everyone!

This set is a new set I was thinking of while messing around in KLE. It's based on the color-scheme of a game that you may have heard of known as Player Unknown's Battlegrounds (abbreviated to PUBG) and uses the GMK colour pallet. This took several attempts to create and hopefully, it will be worth it.

But enough talk. Here's a quick render! (Shoutout to u/voodoo6k for some colour scheme adjustments on r/keycapdesigners. )

ANSI 104



Ergodox



Planck





Alphas

Key: L9

Legends: CR

Modifiers

Key: 2B

Legends: N6

Blue Functions

Key: WS1

Legends: TU1

Red Functions

Key: WS1

Legends: RO1

Price: Hopefully around $120 USD? I'm still researching the possibilities.

TO-DO:

-More Child Kits

-More Renders

Hope you guys like it! Please leave some feedback!

Cool colors! I'd like to see an option with the gray color options for the F row as well.

Only feedback I'll give is on the base layout, it should at minimum contain the keys shown here apart from purple:

Just to add to Xondats point - for ISO the 2”, 3£, ,@, and #~ are needed for UK layout users.

Just a heads up, increasing colors increases costs. A 5 color set is gonna raise your costs a good bit over a 2 color set. 120 is pretty much wishful thinking unless it’s gonna run on MD and there is enough draw for like 1000 moq.

Thanks for LMK. Maybe I should make the Function Row a Child Kit and just leave it as gray for now?

Focus on the concept of what you want first, then get feedback from how to split it up depending on pricing etc.

Not really a fan of the yellow legends, and with heavy industry AND serika coming soon, I think the market for yellow sets will be pretty much taken care of.  Just my 2 cents.

+1. This. All designers need to learn this lesson. Start with the community accepted standard for compatibility and get creative from there. Each of these keys is critical to a large segment of the community.

I don't think the colours are quite right for pubg from the looks?
