Paging YoungMichael88...!I like the idea but honestly, it's not zissou enough. It needs more to make it clearly life aquatic.
So is this going to be pad printed? Lasered?
If it’s double-shot, it’s going to be extremely expensive to make all the new tooling for legends in a new font. If it’s dye-sub, then you can only do darker color legends on lighter-color keycaps.
This in SA please! :D
You'd be crazy to think that Steve wouldn't have his own logo on the Belefonte keyboard haha!! But I get that some people might not want all that zissou stuff if they just like the color.
We need a Jacqueline key with the crosses thru it if at all possible.
with Deep Search as a subtext.

Love it but not sure where this would go...maybeJacquelineas a backspace and DEEP SEARCH as Enter?
Is there any chance this can be Doubleshot? I know they might have tooling costs for legends if its DS but it would be so worth it, so long as it didnt crank up the price too much.

Double shot is the ideal, but I'm not sure yet. Waiting to hear back from Signature Plastics.

That is good to hear. Also do you have a ABS or PBT color sample ring? The palette is so good but soooo specific and i wasnt sure if they had swatches to match.
Er... At least dye-sub?
Also, as usual, I really suggest that you start the base set with alphas and move up to include
1. 60% kit
2. TKL kit
3. WKL kit (and 1.75 shift and control)
4. Numpad kit
5. Ergodox kit
before adding the rest so that users with smaller keyboards don't waste keys.
We would have to dye sub [meaning darker legends] if we wanted Futura.
Otherwise it's $45 per character [I believe]
We could double shot white in a regular font [wyse i think is our only real option, not positive]

Definitely - just wanted to get a good idea of interest before I went through all of that. I'll likely mock those up this weekend.We would have to dye sub [meaning darker legends] if we wanted Futura.

You're right - $45 a character for setting up a new legend with double shot. They CAN do pad-printing for white legends though...but I'd likely want to poll and get opinions on that. I'm not opposed but I think a few would be. Could be wrong though.
For SA SP can not do dye sub, so only double shot or pad printing.Oh wells. DS or bust. I have to say that I will NOT support anything but DS/dye-sub at this point.
Yep, pad printing does not last .... and it's not a good option for an expensive set, is good for cheap rubberdomes.

What about engrave/fill? SP told me that they'd put this at the bottom of their options due to quality and price, but it seems like the only other option before I cave and make this a set with either standard fonts or do black dye-sub.
I know everyone's set on SA rightnow, but if this were DSA dye sub with the dark legends I would buy it. Double shot white with standard font might do it for me, but I like the appeal of this font. I am not attached to SA, but I understand if some people are.
I thought there was no dyesub on SA at this time :/
SA would be so nice, as would DSA. But i'd even go DCS if it meant Futura in White to bring down costs.

I'm waiting on hearing back from SP on that for sure, but UNLESS engrave/fill is an option it seems like I can either:
- SA Profile, standard white double shot legends (meaning no Futura. I could get over this. maybe a few custom icons, but expensive)
- DSA Profile, custom Futura black dye-sub legends (Futura and custom legends possible, but DSA seems less popular and Black doesn't look as good
SA would be so nice, as would DSA. But i'd even go DCS if it meant Futura in White to bring down costs.
Just to be clear, I'm pretty sure Futura in white isn't happening due to cost.
Seems like a poll is in order...I'll get one going shortly.

Honestly I have Penumbra SA sitting in front of me and the legends don't look much different from your mockup.
My vote is DoubleShot in standard font, and to get a few custom icon/legends made @$45 a pop.
[I'd be willing to soak the cost of one of these so long as it's considered "my" mould that requires my permission to use in future buys, but I'm not sure the rules/cost on that.]
Any word Onishima?

Sorry for the hold up. I'll be hashing out more details and designs this weekend.
Definitely going for standard font legends, SA double-shot with separate custom double shot mods available.

I hope it's still being worked on. This set looks great so far.

havent seen you in a while :)
i too hope this set is just put on hold until after the new year.
i know the end of this year just snuck up on me.

When did you pass 1000 posts? Congrats :)
You are entitled to a star (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=44539.0) now, going to ask for one?
the RA needs to be more orange if possible, i feel like all the colors are juuuuust off a little bit lol
either way, nice mockup
I'd love to see this come about. +1 for an ergodox set. If there isn't sufficient interest for that, I'd vie for DSA so it'll be easier to fill the mods up on my own.
As Onishima said, I'm going to pick this project and try to see what happens. So far, I've figured out:
- Color scheme: Based on Onishima's mockups, the closest colors are BFL (alphas), BX(dark blue mods), YCF(yellow mods), RA(red mods), and WCK(white legends)
- Novelties: the current novelties and shouldn't be replaced. My intention is to find a couple more to finish the set.
- Profile: I've been thinking about DSA or SA R3 due to the Novelties.
- Child deals: Alphas or 60% as a base kit. International layouts: UK, Nordic, German, and probably some other layouts depending on the interest

I'd be interested if it was doubleshot, otherwise no.The title isn't correct (and I cannot change it). The set would be Doubleshot DSA.
Definitely on board for this set if it is DSA. Love the movie - love the colors and feel of this set. :thumb:
Love to see this set. Hope it will be in production soon!

Just a heads up for the GH community, since another member brought the theme to light, me and Zambumon are working on this project together and the estimated release for our version is late 2016 (DSA) and early 2017 (SA). Feel free to make your requests and contribute with ideas, we are always listening. And again thank you @onishima for granting us the honor to develop and work on this fantastic keycap set of yours, we'll make it a reality. More updates and information coming soon.
I think it'd look great in SA but I would be down for some DSA

It's gonna get made on both profiles.
I will not buy this set if it's pad printed. Please make it double shot and increase the price per set a bit.
IMHO the Enter key should be red
I would love if this keyset came to fruition or another keyset like it inspired by another Wes Anderson movie(I'd love a Moonrise Kingdom inspired keyset).
jchan ran a GB for SA Grand Budapest not too long ago. https://www.keyclack.com/product/gb-grand-budapest/ (https://www.keyclack.com/product/gb-grand-budapest/)

i'll throw my hat in the ring for a GMK version...
