Yes. With the UK-ISO variant.
Is the black still CR? Lux always appealed to me for the mixing compatibility.
Loving the thicc base kit though. ;)

Yes.
Alice support in the Base Kit: Yes
Simple kitting: Yes
Lux: Yes
Unlikely, but any chance of accent colored alphas? This would allow us to reuse the leftover mods like you envisioned in the Q&A too.
Would be in nonetheless. Thanks for picking this up @Zambumon!

Q: [Sublegends] kit? [Alternate alphas] kit?
A: No and no. Let's keep it simple and easy.
Any chance for a 1.25u tab in base for 40s stagger?

My point is, the (only) two caps I would really need for the board not to look too weird are R4 1u Enter (yellow, please) and R4 1u Shift. Is there any chance these two keys could be added? I get it that this might not work for every ortho user, but I think it would be better than nothing.
Dear fellow ortho users, what do you think?

Yes. That's because this is my take on the set.
Yes, but that's only because everyone here was following the original lux for a reason. Now that Zambs has almost changed it up entirely, is it any wonder that people are lamenting that fact?Q: Colemak, Ergodox, Norde?...

I think there's too many "you're different, GTFO" vibes for me. Z's of course entitled to his opinion and reasons, but adding 2 or so keys to sorta kinda make it work is not something I'm interested in. GL with the IC/GB, Z.
Q: Forties kit? Minivan?
A: Possible, but unlikely. No.
I'm really loving this. However, I'm an ortho guy. I understand not every set can have an ortho kit; I can get creative. I use a Preonic - with SkIIdata I used numpad "-" for Backspace, End for R2 Tab (there was an R3 Tab that I put on R3).

Errr.. That looks straight yellow in the renders. I was originally interested in Lux as a black and gold colorway, but this ain't it. It's grey and yellow :/They are renders. Zambumon says it will be gold, so I'd wait for some colour samples before writing it off ;)

See Zambs above comments dismissing people for the color change because it's "his take on the design." It's not just because of the renders and he has literally said it's not black anymore because cr is too dark..

OK, I wasn't commenting on the "black" (I actually personally prefer a lighter shade). The yellow looks pretty golden to me... Just compare this to PBT Hive (also to run soon, which is unfortunate).

So, just to get it straight I can't make color changes to the set to fit more with what I'd want for it.

You can do whatever you want. This is your set now I guess. Just don't be surprised when people get upset that you completely changed the set they where originally interested in. This is a nice looking set, and if had called it anything besides "Lux" I don't think there would be as much backlash. However, as it is, everyone who was interested in a black and gold set are now being shoehorned into a gray and yellow set. Glwgb, but this is now longer GMK Lux imo.
Time to call RAL and tell them that the darkest color they have (RAL 000 15 00 - Ink black) isn't black.
Daily Clack for Australian/OCE Vendor thanks!Same
Time to call RAL and tell them that the darkest color they have (RAL 000 15 00 - Ink black) isn't black.
Actually, the darkest color RAL offers is RAL 9005 - Jet Black (https://www.ralcolorchart.com/ral-classic/ral-9005-jet-black), which is actually darker than cr, lol.
However, as it is, everyone who was interested in a black and gold set are now being shoehorned into a gray and yellow set.
That's RAL Classic, not RAL Design (000 15 00 is from the Design palette), which is the one GMK and I have been used RAL D8 for the last two years with excellent results, so I will stick to it.
On your previous comment you said that the set is gray. I guess I will have to ask GMK if we can use Vanta Black, because otherwise it won't be real black.

You never specified it had to be from RAL Design in your original comment. It was never even stated that you picked this RAL in the op. You just said it's the darkest color they have which is still false.QuoteOn your previous comment you said that the set is gray. I guess I will have to ask GMK if we can use Vanta Black, because otherwise it won't be real black.
Nope, I would just prefer if it where a darker black like the cr originally shown. Also my main concern is still the gold color which now looks bright yellow.
GMK uses RAL design colors to colormatch, so that's the best thing to look at when asking for colors
and something tells me you don't have a physical book of chips to look at, whereas i know for a fact zambu does

Good to know. That was never specified.and something tells me you don't have a physical book of chips to look at, whereas i know for a fact zambu does
Nope. All I have is a render with significantly different colors from the original set and Zumbumon saying he intentionally changed the design.
So the black isn’t black but dark grey / not really black. Any idea if it’s comparable to epbt “black”? Since that’s called black but really isn’t that black.
And is it yellow? Gold? Comparable with Phantom yellow or Red Samurai gold?

@Zambu; any chance you could answer this? Especially concerning the yellow. I'm considering buying the set to go on my J01 and have seen both Red Samurai accents on it (look really good) and Phantom yellow accents on it (looks ****).

The yellow looks significantly different though too. It was originally listed and rendered as Pantone 16-0836 TPX (https://www.pantone.com/color-finder/16-0836-TPX), which is a much darker gold than the bright yellow we have now.
Not actually a bad looking color from what I can see on a computer. I've always been a fan of 'Harvest Gold' (and really nonmetallic gold in general).So the black isn’t black but dark grey / not really black. Any idea if it’s comparable to epbt “black”?

Yeah the old gold color is way better, IMO.

No. The idea is to keep it as simple as possible. If I were to add anything it would be a red accents kit.
Is it possible to add another 1.25 key? Meta, Code, blank whatever
International kit would be great!
Yes I saw the no norde etc. I just think its sad that you now are excluding some markets from your wonderful sets and even advising other GB runners to do so as well (Oliva++).

I think the colour in renders is ok, kind of goldish-yellow is acceptable (though it is simillar to hive).
Is there any chance that put the 6.25 space bar into the core?

Core kit has 6.25U and 7.00U space bars.
Accent space bars and 6.00U space bars are on the space bar kit.
Are there any plans to release the lux in other profiles like the KAT or MT3??
Love the colors hence the curiosity.

A. “Yes I’m considering it. And I already finished the considering and decided no. More important things to do. Like find ways to retire off my color picking! Thank you Kindergarden teacher for that crayon box not so long ago.

Didn't see if its been revealed yet, but do we have any idea on what the deskmat would look like?
Need a new one at some point in the not too distant future and if I'm getting the Lux set then it only makes sense to get the matching mat.
Thanks in advance!
This set is gorgeous! I’m really hoping to pair this with a black and gold Space65:CyberVoyager. :)
Are we any closer to a confirmed EU vendor?
Is this thread still the best place to ask about updates? I’m really hoping this set will go into production soon!
