the blue in the picture of the color sample is no where close to the navy of the renders

FYI, SP DCS has a mould for 10u spacebars with a 7u stabilizer footprint. That'd be a lot easier logistically than the 8u one.

I'll be working on this in the coming days to make sure the color is more representative of the samples. Also, a note is that the samples were taken in slightly harsh lighting I've realized, so I will retake that photo very soon.

Can you consider adding a r4 1u novelty? Right now it's just a duplication of R1 and R2, the kit only has 3 dedicated 1u keys for 3 rows (R1 - R2 - R3)

This is definitely a possibility. I'll see what I can come up with.

Loving that lead time, though I do think from that sample pic we should be seeing colours that are closer to GMK Striker in the renders (e.g. a much brighter, lighter blue).
Title: Re: [IC] DCS Blue Moon

This dark blue looks beautiful. The contrast with this light blue is also very nice.

Post by: Friendship on Mon, 23 August 2021, 10:54:22
Very cool set! Really digging the colors and that blood moon accents! glwic!!
feedback I have:
-The moons in the novelites/accents/deskmats look a little too cartoonish. Like a circle with some random holes drilled in it. Would you be able mimic the moons visible crater features more 1:1?
-The iso novelty fisherman looks a little janky

Better pictures of the samples and renders will be coming out in the coming weeks, which will take care of this. :D

I want to make the base kit relatively big, but adding uk iso will add about 5$ to the kit, which I don't really want to do unless there is a lot of support for it. Please fill out the IC, and if there is enough demand I will consider adding it!

Post by: PancakeGoon on Mon, 23 August 2021, 22:17:57
Gorgeous. That blue, at least in the renders, looks phenominal and the White is a great contrast. I'd also love to see it in other language legends, or sublegends but I dont know if ot would fit with whatever theme your going for, or if you even care about that sorta thing.

And look at that! A render of what it would look like on our Púca's.👍🏽 - I definitely want in. Any chance of an OrthoErgo kit with 1.5u + 2u Blanks/Mods & Verticals? I think this would look nutty on a Boardwalk.

Could you possibly add a 1.75u Enter or a 1.75u R3 Novelty?

Prime-E, JD40, JD45, AMJ40, SP40, The40, BM43a, Daisy, Pheonix45, Nightmare, Neko, UD40, Chicory, Mechmini, and more - almost all non-Minivan 40s use 1.75 enter.

I get that there is physical compatibility with the 1.75u control, but come on like two thirds of all 40s boards use the 1.75u enter and it is extremely annoying that it isn't included in the minimal-40s compatibility base sets.

Some money could be saved by removing the US ISO keys (R3 [\|] and R4 [<>]), there are very few sets that support both US ISO and UK ISO.

This looks great! Consider adding colors from gmk stargaze to your color comparison. It looks very similar to me. However, set looks awesome. GLWIC!

This is like if GMK Stargaze and GMK Nightlight and I'm here for it. (already got Stargaze and gettin' Nightlight)

I do think that WA is gonna turn out a lot more sharp and contrast-y than the pale yellow in the renders.
Did you consider something more pale yellow like WCK?

I have redone the novelty kitting, which will be shown in a revamp coming soon, and it is already more expensive than the one posted now, so I don't think I would add any more cost to it, unless a lot of people ask for it.

Yeah I didn’t really felt it fit with the theme or looked good tbh. The alt alphas kit I feel will reach a much wider audience and fit the the set a lot better.
