How different from rose gold will the bronze color be? I’m looking at joining the Olivia++ GB and getting the dark alpha version. I thought it would be cool to do on the rose gold Jules. Would the bronze be too far off for that? If so, I might go with a light alpha Olivia++ and do the Kuro Jules when the time comes.

Not that close. Kuro will be a better match.

Because I don't want to offer the least number of options and I liked the idea of having finishes that match my sets, so that's how I priorized them:

Blue: Striker and Nautilus
Red: Jamón
Black: Serika, Lux
Bronze: Sandstorm

  • Welcome! Just keep checking in on this thread; RAMA-run boards usually have GBs that are open for a good amount of time so as long as you check in once a week or so you should be well-aware when it opens and have the time to buy it

Agreed. It kind of shows that there's a lot of finishes that I kind of "need" to do first.

Fixed layout plate is definitely happening. Offering a plate that supports split backspace and stepped caps lock is under consideration.

+ 1 for plz split backspace

Not for the hotswap version.

+1 for solderable PCB and extra plate options that support split backspace. Would be a shame to see a nice case design like this go to waste without split backspace.

Agreed. I’m trying to decide what to do. I was assuming black would be all black. I’m not loving the light bottom, but buying a second board that comes with a black bottom to combine the two isn’t something I can justify.

J-01 was the classic, you know, board that brought accents back to life in the community, and if you look at all the boards, you got Thermal, you've got the Keycult No.2 with the forced brass bottom, you've got the Keycult No.1 with the forced gold accent, you've got the Dixie Mech Bauer by Dixie Mech which had similar cerakoted forced bottom accent, you've got the J-02, I mean, there's hundreds of keyboards with forced accents now, just happens, so we've seen all our innovation because Keycult brought this back to the community.

With a seamless board like Jules, accentuating the side profile, for me, was extremely important and using different colors for the top and bottom of the enclosure makes a huge difference in that regard. I don't think offering these combos is strange at all.

I'm angry because I'm indecisive!!!
Ouro is a new colorway for me, but Naut 2 will look dope on Navy  ...but most of Zambu's sets would look dope on Ouro  :-\

The only thing about the split colors that seems unusual to me is that RAMA is not offering an additional base purchase option. 

*edit:  Thanks for offering the VARIABLE/SOLDERABLE option!
