Title: [WIP] ePBT Odin
Post by: atl22033 on Mon, 24 May 2021, 16:51:41
So I've been working on this set for a while and I wanted to get some feedback on it, So the set is called Gmk ePBT Odin and I'm basing it off of Valhalla and Odin in a way. My idea was having a set that has a contrast of both light and dark. The dark representing the death of many soldiers but the light being the idea of them meeting in Valhalla in the afterlife ready to aid in Ragnarok. So far I have an Idea of colors for the set I'm working on ideas for novelties right now I still have to color match but I'd appreciate it if you could give me some feedback ;D Also please note that these will be PBT Dye-sub keycaps

IC IS HERE: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=114081.0

Alright after working on it and getting some feedback from others here is what the set looks like right now:
[attachimg=1]

So what I changed was I done away with the grey accents with green and made them a blue on white because I felt that the green didnt really fit in that well but I will keep them in mind just in case some people want them cause I know some people really liked the green accents

I really like how the set is evolving - the alt base you posted looks really tempting too.

you could move the b to an extensions kit. since there is no native alice support in the base kit based on the renders

Hope ya mean space bars kit, usually extensions kit is a terrible idea most times as it usually always struggles to hit moq even with big sets. Only time I think it was done kinda well was with PnC where the keys inside weren't the most necessary that would force most people to buy it. It was still expensive for the keys given though and it was already a pretty low moq

im hoping to cut down on cost and increase support by going with ePBT as my manufacturer

please add 1u “=“ to top row of numpad kit. (and it looks like numpad kit will be quite expensive with both colorways included.) i also wonder about alternate alphas with runic sub legends to fit your theme? glwic  :thumb:

I see two Ragnarok kits, which one would be finalized? I definitely like the one with blue alpha legends.

One kit is for the main alphas and the other kit is for the numpad alphas

No I meant that there are two different Ragnarok renders. One with White alpha legends and one with blue alpha legends. I like the blue legends more.

would you get more accurate color reproduction by choosing blue instead of white since this will be reverse dye sub for dark mods? (no personal experience)

edit: still hoping you'll add a top row "=" key to numpad kit

I can't speak for everyone of course, but this would look much better as a GMK than anything else. it just screams to be done in that Sweet sweet doubleshot ABS  :thumb:
the colors will turn out really good

This reminds me of GMK Rainy Day, very pleasant to look at. I'm interested since I very much prefer PBT to ABS.

I like this a lot. It's simple, it's clean, it does what it needs to and it's very nice. And, even though it's simple, it's new and fresh. Great design, I really like the crisp colors on this one.

Complete nordic subalphas in the base set and ragnarok set would be sick

Do you think you could alice spacebars in base kit ?
Anyways overall it looks really nice ePBT is a good call!

little late but my suggestion is to go into IC with your pantones & colors matched so that it makes for less confusion & more info towards people interested in Odin.

This is one of the best looking sets I've ever seen, especially "Ragnarok"!

Will buy for sure!  :cool:

Althoug I wonder if it's possible to make a dark ΕΔΦ or "NorDeUk" that match the "Ragnarok-Set"?
