what will the profile be?

DSA, but Vortex will be making doubleshot PBT versions most likely in Cherry profile.

Except for the alpha keys, the legends look way too big. Sort of out of proportion. Just sayin'

Also not feeling the star on the meta keys. Is a crescent moon glyph available? That would be cool...

Looks great! I like your colors.
I have a couple changes that you should consider making.

Please add a modifier color `~ key as well as an alpha color \| key.
A modifier color ESC key please.
Also, consider text for pg up/pg down/menu so you don't have a mix of icon/text.
I think the star on win key is okay because it has to be neutral.
You need a 1u + [plus sign] key for numpad for 1800 layout.

That's all I can pull off the top of my head. Just got off work!

I personally don't like the star on the os key.
A bit of an odd shape that sticks out too much probably due to complexity in the shape.
Extra blanks would be cool as a replacement

If you click the link I put in response to Taylord's comment you can see the Tsangan kit includes 3x 1u blank keys :)

I may just be being blind but I couldn't read the colors anywhere. Is that a black or dark blue for the non-alpha keys? Thanks

They do have cherry profile but I doubt they had molds for double shot pbt in cherry profile
