ne shiny Umbreon accent/mod kit avail 👀
Very interesting choice of colors. I wonder if yellow legends for F1..F4 and F9..F12 could be included, too (or not).Thanks for the feedback! I’ll be changing that one key and also include extra yellow legends for the f keys.
The above said, I'd like to point out a minor error in ISO support in the base kit, as it stands now: you have an 1.25U Shift key (good), mod-colored and accent-colored ISO Enter keys (good), R4 \| key (good) and R3 #~ (OOPS!). This is an all-too-common mistake in too many sets, an error I'd like to see disappear for good. Why?
When it comes to a national language, base kits start out with support for US ANSI. To add ISO support, the immediate choices are US ISO or UK ISO.
- US ISO support requires adding 4 keys: ISO Enter, R4 1.25U left Shift, R3 \| and R4 \|.
- UK ISO support requires adding 8 keys: ISO Enter, R4 1.25U left Shift, R1 `¬, R1 2", R1 3£, R3 '@, R3 #~ and R4 \| (not counting at least two AltGr keys as well).
As it stands now, your set fully supports neither US ISO nor UK ISO, and therefore falls "in the middle of the pond" (something that has been called "Atlantis ISO").
The solution is pretty simple: replace the R3 #~ key with an R3 \|key — this will complete the US ISO support and keep unaltered the number of keys in the kit.
HTH!
I like the colors, but I think a montone set would be better. Perhaps you could use the other color for an accent instead of the yellow?
Looks nice,
Not a fan of the accents though.
Looks good! Would prefer if the alphas and mods were the same color (7547 C).
You could potentially swap the orange with V2 to simplify the color matching process. Also potentially the darker black could be simplified to CR since it's already so close to begin with that I'm not sure that it could even be matched close enough to matter.Thanks for the feedback. I'll consider V2, and I believe I was mistaken to use Black 6 C. I actually meant that to be a very dark navy color, and it will be fixed with a brighter color after I get my samples.Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/4HansnG.jpg)
Here's a render of the current Pantones for referenceWow, thanks for the render! I'll definitely be making those colors much lighter once I get my RAL samples in the mail.Show Image(https://imhide.s-ul.eu/m43vVJxX)
nicekrel when he sees a yellow set
if you need a vendor

Wish you could just have another base kit with the shiny mods included. Everyone who wants the blue will need to spend probably 120 for the base and another 60~80 for the shiny kit ;-;.Then there would probably be issues with moq :(
The lighter blue legends make this set look too similar to GMK Phosphorus.I think the background is enough to differentiate and the legends are still a different colour for the alphas.

It's gotta get enough interest, but I'll add it as an option next big IC update.Here's a render of the current Pantones for referenceShow Image(https://imhide.s-ul.eu/m43vVJxX)
Really like it so...
Do you think you can plan a Norde / International Extension for the german users ;D
I'd really like a shiny version of the deskmat if possible. Same shape but change the colour and it'd be great.I saw lots of interest for this, so it's done :)
Are there already prices for the sets? Amazing set, would surely join in.Prices are coming soon, I'm waiting on GMK to reply :)
Aight, thanks. Time to prepare!Are there already prices for the sets? Amazing set, would surely join in.Prices are coming soon, I'm waiting on GMK to reply :)
Where is the numpad kit?
No numpad, no thank you. Theme and colors look good otherwise.I don't think there will be enough interest for the MOQ for numpad. I may include an option for numpad interest in the final IC form, though, and people can vote on it.

I can't think of any recent group buys where the numpad didn't hit MOQ. It would at least be worth it to see how much one would cost.Where is the numpad kit?No numpad, no thank you.

+1 for a numpad kitBecause of the way the kits are structured, I don't think I could add a modifier kit because there are two separate mod colors I would have to cover, and that would probably end up with a more expensive icon mod kit or two separate icon mod kits with different colors that don't hit MOQ.
Also, will you be doing a separate icon modifier kit? Or consider doing the icon esc in the base kit?
Out of curiosity, why an Umbreon theme kit first? Why not pachirisu your namesake? Also GMK garchomp when?Haha, Pachriksu is actually a malapropism for my full name (Patrick). I chose to do Umbra first because that's the first thing I thought of and Umbreon has some nice colors. I'll have to hold off on Pokemon themed sets after this one though, at least that's what I decided. I don't want to get pounded by Nintendo. This set was only slightly based off the Pokemon's colors and has a different name. If I start doing things like using actual names and designs for the set and related then I can assure myself that it won't end up well. :(
i like the new colors a lot more, nice one :thumb:I actually had to change colors one last time because I needed all RAL colors, so stay tuned for the new ones :-X (massive amounts of new renders though)
I love Umbreon but feel like the set doesn’t really fit without glow in the dark alphas...They are being done :cool:
They can be done, GMK mizu and terra both have a glow in the dark novelty.
That pricing though :sI know, I learned my lesson on too many colors this time, but I tried to make prices as fair as possible from the quotes.

Thank you! If anyone has any suggestions to reduce the prices of the kits by moving or removing keys without affecting MOQ, I’ll gladly take them into consideration. I’m already working on prices to see if they can be lowered more, especially Hiragana and Numpad.I and the community appreciate everyone's efforts in getting out good quality sets.That pricing though :sI know, I learned my lesson on too many colors this time, but I tried to make prices as fair as possible from the quotes.

That’s definitely something I’m considering if it doesn’t affect shiny kit price too much.Thank you!

I first want to say, I'm not going in on the set so take what I say at face value.
For the numpad, I think you could probably save by putting the blue mods into the shiny kit. My logic: Numpad users will get the base kit, but may not get the shiny kit. They're stuck paying more for mods they might not/probably won't use. If numpad users DO get the shiny kit, well, they already have the base numpad kit and now the matching shiny.
So your telling me it's going to cost me $275 if I want to run the set with hiragana alphas and a numpad... GMK Vaporwave had Hiragana alphas and a numpad in the base kit and that price was only $187. Something seems off about the prices for the kits, they are extremely high.I’m working on the prices, and trying to reorganize the kits more efficiently.
Phew, 115$ for an Alphas kit and 130 for a numpad-less base kit all seem way higher than standard. I would definitely try reworking the kits, to stay competitive. There are so many more reasonably priced sets every month that I think it may be hard to get a lot of buyers for this one at these prices. Just my .02I thought, "that's a great idea!"... until I remembered MOQ :blank: (I highly doubt I'll reach 250 for both base kits.)
It might be worth seeing what the price is to combine shiny + hiragana and just run with two bases?
Good luck, hope you get it figured out - set looks great.

Love the shiny kit, but confused why it's virtually the same price as the base kit which has a heap more keys....
No bar 5 key for the numpad?
The other set has a bar, it's just a little hard to see in that render, sorryNo bar 5 key for the numpad?
For that matter, what are the two sets of F & J in the Base kit? They appear to be identical in the render.

Renders look great, but I've a feeling I liked it more before the most recent change. I couldn't find pics of the previous version so I can't say for certain. Unfortunately, the inclusion of the numpad in base kit makes me look elsewhere. I've heard arguments from other gb runners why they choose to include it, but i don't buy it and definitely don't want numpad kit.
Am I losing it, or I saw a different colors here?Theme color was changed to blue because of pricing and kit issues. Therefore, I will post an IC sometime in the future for orange as a kind of re-run.
I liked it with some orange colors... or was it different set?
