Hey everyone! During my free time in quarantine, I decided to finish off an old project I started (and posted here) late October last year.
With that out of the way, I introduce you to the new and improved:

Infinikey Strawberry Lemonade



Information

To save you a paragraph worth of text, I'll keep it simple.
This set is one based off one of, in my opinion, summers greatest drinks: Strawberry Lemonade.
Its colors are fruity and fun, copying after the flavors of its namesake.

Profile: Cherry
Sculpt: 1-1-2-3-4-4
Legends: Dye Sublimation
Plastic: Infinikey PBT

Novelties look very nice,small remark for the mouse mats 25$ is kinda pricey considering mats go for 17$ gb.

While the colours might be just a bit too fruity for me, I feel like I want to join just for those striped spacebars! :) Great job!

I’m totally into this. The price is bonkers good.

The homing F and J in the core and pink alphas kit don’t appear to have bars in the render. I’m assuming thats just an oversight?

yeah, that's an oversight. I'll make some new renders with the homing bar.

2 things

- would you consider adding 2.25u and 2.75u in 'peppermint' style to the novelties for split spacebars compatibility?

- would you offer standard font to all kits?

Would you consider adding pink split spacebar options (and extra B key) into the pink alphas set or even the mega add-on set? It seems weird to have all pink keys except for white spacebars on split setups. Honestly I'd be happy with just a pink 2.75u and a 2.25u key addition.

I feel like it's been 84 years waiting for this IC to go official. This looks so awesome, I love how the striped keys have come out, and at this price point I don't know how people in this hobby are going to resist.

the current lead time for Infinikey sets is about 3 months

2 things

- would you consider adding 2.25u and 2.75u in 'peppermint' style to the novelties for split spacebars compatibility?

- would you offer standard font to all kits?

1. I will definitely consider adding that, as well to the pink alphas

2. I don't plan on doing that, as it would add 4 more kits that would have to hit MOQ

norde pleaseeee!

Its currently not in infinikeys kitting to include norde support, but in sure it'll be offered in an R2! (if there even is an r2)

I cant believe I overlooked this, I will definitely talk with the TKC people to see if i can add this in, but im sure I can

pbt and affordable? genius

thanks!!

thanks so much for supporting me along this wonderful journey!!

I think this is a great keycap set. In fact I'd go ahead and say it very slightly pushes the boundaries of what is conventional for a keycap design and what isnt. I think that it looks great. There are a few concepts which come out with odd text and legends which fall flat imo but this one actually holds up. I think it would look amazing on a brown keyboard. I think that it opens up many branches to reach a great potential aesthetic in terms of cases and deskmats and things like that. I think this will be one of those keycap sets which gets somebody into the hobby, like GMK Vaporwave did for me. If I would buy a keycap set, I would buy a BROWN case for it I think that's the move. But we'll see... I don't see myself buying it but I can certainly appreciate it. Cheers

Thanks!! that was what I was trying to make, a set that looks unique and pushes boundaries but looks good. ive gotten a few replies from people saying that they're new to the hobby and that this is their first set, which couldn't make me happier. a brown case could look really good with this, thanks!

I love the colors and the font of this set! So unique! I would like to see more renders on different color boards as well as more renders of the striped bars and mint accents please! Regardless I'm in :)

Decided to take the leap and purchase the base kit + novelties + mint add-ons. I will build it into a Datamancer 60% cherry hardwood case - i think it will look SO legit. Can't wait until I get my hands on this
