UPDATE


*Reaches for the king size rizlas*

There's been a lot going on with Zooted behind the scenes here and we'll be announcing a bunch of things next week but for today I want to make an announcement that I hope you all will be more than happy with.

*Sparks Lighter*

The almighty aluminium bossman Salvun is on board to produce the leafy cap that was too hot for GMK.

With that in mind, I've revised the kitting. Obviously the leaf novelties are out, and there's been some minor changes to the kit in the original IC, mainly the move from UK ISO coverage to more basic ISO coverage to keep costs down. I've also settled on Icon & Text mods because that's where my taste is at right now. It's classic, and I'm a classy guy. *takes an extra long draw and coughs lungs up* Here's the proposal for the final kits, hopefully this will achieve that elusive balance between affordability and coverage. Let me know your thoughts. Peace and love x

I enjoy the kitting here. Would you consider adding 2x 3u spacekeys to the Spliffs kit? It will be the new split-space meta.

Here to beg for basic 40s support. R2 1.75 backspace, r3 1.5 enter and r3 1.25 tab would let you cover a good chunk of 40s boards.

So is the grey accent color being replaced with purple, or is that just the way it looks in those pics?

Sorry mate, I've had to cut it to keep the cost down.



Love the new kits! Please consider making one of the 1.5u alt keys a alt gr key!

I had this before and changed it. I think alt is preferred on the whole but I'm happy to be proven wrong.

I like the idea. I'll try to include it.

So is the grey accent color being replaced with purple, or is that just the way it looks in those pics?

It's actually mauve, not grey, but yeah the kitting picture accents were way too bright. I've re-uploaded them. You should go by the renders though for the best idea. KLE isn't that great at representing colours.

Here to beg for basic 40s support. R2 1.75 backspace, r3 1.5 enter and r3 1.25 tab would let you cover a good chunk of 40s boards.

I would love to offer this but I don't see enough people asking I'm afraid.

So now that we have text and icon mods, the obvious question is obvious.

I actually had planned on making it R5, but decided against it as it'd add to the cost and I'm really tryna get this kit to be as affordable as poss.

Excited to see this going again. One of things I loved about DMG was the arrow cluster to look like the GB D-pad. Would you consider adding a purple arrow cluster to this?

Will the purple be closer to the render or the updated purple? I liked the slightly muted tone of original look and the updates just look a little bright. Might be my eyes, though!

Nonetheless, glad to see this rollin' on and can't wait for GB.

It's a nice idea but too luxurious for this refined base kit. There will hopefully be collabs with some purp WASD action though. Keep em peeled.

You'll still be able to pick up a Salvun aluminium leaf cap if you so desire. Not to mention the themed extras which you might enjoy. All will be revealed soon.

Let me first get out of the way that I'd prefer icon-only mods like shown in the old render for this one... normally, I have no clear preference in that regard, but here I feel that icon-only would be more laid-back, thus fitting the theme better.

I am stoked that you got Salvun on board and thus elegantly solved the main challenge here! Kitting looks fine to me (the spacebar in Base is labelled incorrectly, but I would be such a dork to point that out, so I don't ;) )

Keep rolling that thing!

Given that GMK killed the true novelties kit, perhaps in its place you could create a R1 multimedia kit? I would love to see three replacement F keys for iconed mute, vol down, vol up, and three iconed for back, forward, and pause/play. You could also add two more R1 iconed keys for monitor brightness up and down. Too few keycap kits have multimedia R1 rows in my view.

EDIT: You could also add opt and command keys for mac users if you want to round it out.

Thanks!

It's not about smoking. It's about celebrating and appreciating.

I can buy a keycap set any day. But I can only buy keycap sets on 4/20 once a year.
