Idk if this has been asked before or I'm just blind, but what are the color codes? I'll definitely be getting the space bar kit. Also wanna know about Astral light's colors too!

Please, add 1.5u Code for the Mac users in the base. Don't put it in the expensive Extension kit.

I think the dark looks better than the light, but I can't really distinguish between the color on the alphas and the mods. It's in that weird place where I can tell it's a different color but it's so similar that my brain skips over it - then I see it again. It's kind of distracting ngl. If there was a bigger difference between the mod color and the alphas I would be interested.

I’m of the opposite opinion: the dark version needs more work to be up to par with the light one.

Will there be novelties? I love this colorway. Also, will you consider adding accent iso enter? Iso users could use some loves since the set is very dark.

Nice to see this set finally moving.

However I feel it would be a bit sad to see the set run as it is right now.
The colors are great.

-I would like either to see Alice support added in base kit like you are considering with Vaporwave R2.
Or to have a bigger spacebar/accent kit like you did with regular Astral. Those small spacebar kits often feel pretty overpriced for what you get imo.

-Would really like a novelty kit and some metal Artisan to give the set some more flair and match light Astral.

Yes there will be novelties. I'm currently leaning towards high fantasy villains and commonly antagonized creatures plus a little bit of magic and dice mixed in.

An accent ISO enter is pretty likely.

The base kit render on the thread is just so we have a good starting point.

Please, consider adding 1.5u R4 Code keys for Mac users (as it stands now the set doesn’t support 7u bottom row for Mac).

Great stuff, thanks for the feedback.

- Kit revisions are likely after collecting a solid chunk of feedback.
- Novelties are coming for sure.
- Can't promise any artisans up front, but will definitely chat up some skilled people and see if we can work something out.

And thanks for swinging by the other threads in addition to this one.  :thumb:

I would like to recommend that you add small bars (2x1u, 1x2u, 1x2.25u, 1x2.75u) to your 40s kit. Otherwise 40s users have to buy base, spacebar and 40s to complete their board which tends to be prohibitively expensive and might keep some people from buying at all.

Nice  :thumb:

I say Artisan, but maybe metal keycap is more appropriate.
Rama / Thok are always a favorite of mine and allow for some pretty creative designs.
