[IC] GMK Olivia | Launching 3/28

GMK Olivia | Launching 3/28!

Mailing list here: http://eepurl.com/dnfo0X

Hi everyone!! I'd like to officially announce the interest check for a set I've been working on for a little while. Originally born from my love of all things rose gold, it is the perfect companion for any board you throw at it. I hope you like it as much as I do!






Kits

Currently offered are a base kit & extras kit. The extras kit offers alternate colors, and compatibility with all your favorite 40% boards.




Artisans

I'm super excited to be working with RAMA Works to offer a special edition of aluminum XO artisan keys alongside with GMK Olivia.






Vendors

The main vendor for the group buy will be NovelKeys with CandyKeys, Monokei & Zfrontier as the proxy vendors for EU, SEA, and Asia respectively.

Pricing

Currently the quoted prices are $140 for the base kit and $45 for the extras at NovelKeys.  Pricing for the proxy vendors is incoming.

Special Thanks

This interest check couldn't have been made a reality without the support of a lot of people in the keyboard community. Special thanks to Rama, Kate, Oblotzky, Mike, Discord friends and many others <2

I was so happy when you said you were in for making the custom artisans for this set.

I've been waiting to hear more about this and it looks fantastic.
A question about the alphas color:  In the Rama renders it looks considerably more beige than the whiter shade on the other renders.  Which will it be?
I personally think if the alphas were a softer white/beige and the mods a gentle dark grey (ie a bit less contrast between the two) it might complement the softness of the rose color well.

not to be critical - it looks amazing, just my two cents

Lovely hue of pink. In my opinion, I think a change in the base color of the alphas from CP to closer to the gold color, or the alpha legend color from the grey tone to something closer to gold, would be interesting.

I personally think if the alphas were a softer white/beige and the mods a gentle dark grey (ie a bit less contrast between the two) it might complement the softness of the rose color well.

What this user said resonates with me.

Thanks for the feedback!!! :) I'm using CP as the alphas bg so it will be somewhat in between the rama & oblotzky renders looking at this:

Looking at CP in front of me, I think it's too white for the overall feel. Maybe choose the more cream one (L9?) like in the render with Rama's X?

I agree with this. I think the mods could be a shade or two lighter so that it brings out the color of the rose color. But you do you!

Finally! Nice to see this coming together. While I initially agreed with many about the alpha colour I have to say that more and more I’m appreciating the contrast with the almost white.

Very pleasant set to look at - I've said this before when this was brought up, I personally would've wanted this to be a Terminal/Skidata type set where the alphas and mods are the same colour with just the rose gold accents. I'm sure you're set on your vision and that's completely fine, I'll still be purchasing a set more than likely, just figured I'd bring it up regardless for what it's worth!

Additionally, regarding the kits, I feel like having (as I understand it) UK-ISO in the extras kit might be a little awkward for some people - I don't personally have an issue with it because I only have 2 ISO boards out of like 8. That said, again, I'd assume you have already done the math on it and come to the conclusion that overall this is the better way to go about it economically speaking.

Great job, best of luck!

Just kidding- I'm with everyone else here- bring this bad boy on, looks great, Olivia!

If I had one wish, I'd like to see a 1.25u R4 Fn- been appreciating having that in sets lately, but I'm in no doubt about it.  :thumb: :thumb:
