Could you add a couple of renders with the accent spacebars and a 40s board?

I will over the next few days! I also need to re-do the ones with mono katakana

I would like to see
Two base kits instead of alt alpha
Stepped cap control
Icon mod
Accent spacebar?
Move numpad to its own kit

Moving numpad to its own kit makes it ~ $50 more expensive for people that want numpad. When I joined GH the only people using numpad were legacy users on old keyboards but now there are a lot of customs that are using it.

Pretty much this, having numpad adds basically no cost, moving it to its own kit adds cost for anyone that does want it.
The sales numbers of standalone numpad is usually just 10-15% of the base kit sales numbers. This can also be because of the high price tag, but also, the amount of boards that have a numpad is small and not in high demand. Moving numpad to its own kit will make the overall price lower for most people

Update:

11/02
-Removed mono katakana renders (whoops, had forgotten about that!)
-Replaced a render with a new one showing accent space bars

I have also updated the IC form with a new question, if you already answered I would appreciate if you could go back in to answer the new question!

Just checking the NorDeUK kit from UK perspective:
swap R4 [><] for R4 [|\]
missing R4 1u AltGr key

You're right actually! hadn't noticed the >< key was repeated in base kit, thanks for pointing it out.

The renders with the accent space bars look so sick.

Any chance we'll get accent space bars for the sizes 2.25u and 2.75u? Any plans for novelties?

Very interesting for my girlfriend but just with NorDe Kit cause she needs a German Iso Layout.
Is it possible to get a Render with a Lilac Mode SixtyFive with a Brass Backplate. That would be 🚀

Hey y'all, I was quiet for a bit because honestly I kinda slacked on this since my pc takes ages to render stuff.

But here we are now with some small updates, nothing major since I'm pretty happy with the current kitting.

-Revamped katakana sublegends, I noticed several of the legends were wrong so I decided to use an existing asset for them
-Made small fixes on some errors in numpad (It was missing a barred 5 and the scoop had no scoop)
-Updated renders with katakana subs to show the new sublegends

No chance of 1.5U Supers and extra 1u Alt to supplement then? Oh well :(

Btw, don't forget to fix NorDeUK kit.

Not bad at all.

But what's the supposed base kit cost? It is huge, including some short spacebars, accent keys for everything including ISO, 40s support, and numpad. Looks like 140$ base to me. Maybe removing numpad from the base kit is a good idea, but you should consult with GMK about the actual price first.

Thanks for reminding me about the NordeUK kit, almost forgot to fix it entirely, should be corrected now.

As for the 1.5u super and extra 1u alt, I tried to find a way to fit them into the kitting, but the base kit is already a bit too big and my only other option would have been an extension kit, however there just isn't enough interest currently for an extension kit.

Wow, I've been saying for a long time I would only brave the crazy GMK lead times for a set I absolutely love.

This is that set.

The base kit is missing R3 PgUp, R4 PgDn for 65% support.

Accent-colored R2 Esc is not a necessary key and can be removed from the base kit.

On a similar note, I suggest moving accent arrow keys to the spacebars kit to help keep the cost of the base kit down and make room for more important keys.

The R1 -_ホー key in the alt alphas kit is missing the sublegend in the top right.

I think they’re waiting on quotes from the vendors.

This is the last group buy for GMK I'm likely ever going to get again. So tired of waiting for all the sets. I have like 6 sets I haven't received for over a year. I will wait for this one though. It's beautiful.

I'll have 10 of these 💜💜💜

Actually it would be nice if the short spacebars were lilac as well for more contrast !

Hey is it too late to add one key? All it's missing to support ISO-PT is the "Ç"

Way too late unfortunately, that would require getting new quotes for the entire set.
