Hi, sorry for lack of updates. Pseudoalpaca and I are partly still waiting for Keyreative to show us colour matched samples of keycaps. Even though we have said April Groupbuy, it might get delayed depending on how long things take for this to happen. All our vendors are confirmed though!
In the mean-time, we're slowly revamping our work flow for renders, so there's been a bit of a delay in getting new images of kits up.
Regardless, I felt it was best to show in the interim some of the kitting updates thus far, despite the current images not being 'renders'.
Alphas
Modifiers (feat new custom icon legends, refinement of alien legends, and new space terminology)
F-Rows (R4 - thus can flexed to num-row!)
Numpad (planets now on display, featuring 'that's not a moon', 'reach', and references to stonks and ISS)
Spacebars
These are the main kits, the rest are still WIP that we're still refining and I'll post some draft KLEs of a few of them in another comment to keep things better compartmentalised.
Please let us know of any kitting errors.
Also open to feedback re: text modifiers
- will consider alternative superior space terminology suggestions if you specify which legend it would replace. We've added a few touches of pop culture references on the latest revamp, which we hope people like. Note that 'Don't Panic' will be a red accent enter novelty key so people who don't get - text modifiers can also have a bit of that fun.
- Also wondering if we should use space terms for 'Up', 'down' 'left' 'right' etc. instead, or keep as is as obvious text, or potentially just make them icon legends. If yes to space terms, any alternative suggestions? (Roll, pitch and yaw only cover 3; and I ran out of ideas when considering other terms like apex, desc)
F-row kit (R4)
- second row of additional keys accounts for compressed F-row in 75% layouts, F13 layouts, and is
colourway compatible with replacing the num-row keys on 60/65% layouts (I know many would love to use the planet kit on their smaller boards)
- the third row of purple keys is a bit extraneous, but essentially provides an alternative option of making the f-row have three blocks of colours, versus a continuous gradient like the alphas. You might also perhaps use them for a 4 x 1u column of single coloured planet keys.
(Shoutout to Oli who has been integral with helping this kitting revamp)
