I love beige sets, but isn't this basically GMK Sixes? :|
Sixes and Umka running in the same month cant be good right?
I love beige sets, but isn't this basically GMK Sixes? :|
not sure about decision to run both beige sets at the same time
Love beige, love classics. I'm in regardless, but any chance of R5 on this?
How about a R5 kit?
Here for my once per T0mb3ry interest check dose of "No":
The 777, playing card suits, and skulls of rolling bones...color inverted for umka

I do not plan any novelties nor child kits. This will stay as a single base kit.

There’s no form to fill out, you’ve stated upfront that you aren’t changing kits and are running this in a month, and as another commenter joked, you just say no to any feedback/requests. How are you expecting to gauge “interest”? Count comments on this post?
I’ve seen you take this approach before, and it apparently works for you, but this isn’t an IC, it’s an ad. Just call it what it is. [/list]
I’m just saying there’s no form, there’s one mock up with no renders, and only one vendor. You’re established so apparently you get a pass, but less well-known folks here regularly get excoriated for lackluster ICs that have more than this.
There is no rule which describes what an interest check needs to have. This here is an interest check. Because it represents here my project and thus try to gauge the interest. Purpose solved.
Of course you can make suggestions or ask for keys you would love to see. But it does not mean i have to include those in my project.
Sixes is now running in June. Good luck with gb!
Renders and vendors will come in the future as i said.I’m just saying there’s no form, there’s one mock up with no renders, and only one vendor. You’re established so apparently you get a pass, but less well-known folks here regularly get excoriated for lackluster ICs that have more than this.

Like I said, this ad-posing-as-an-IC approach works for you, so you do you. But you posted it, so that’s my feedback.
I don't think there's anything necessarily wrong with this IC. Some people choose to IC with a turn key item, others post an IC with just a mere idea.I’m just saying there’s no form, there’s one mock up with no renders, and only one vendor.

I would have made some novelties if i had good idea for it. Like always i am picky in this case. Rolling bones do not match this theme here as well :/
What theme?

Ok. I'd like to see some numbers.
Preferred row constellation? (https://www.strawpoll.me/42365287)
I hope preferences have changed over time but i don't think its the case.
I’m gonna buy this whole thing for an F13 key and we dont even get a polar bear nov. Least I get to rep R0 here in the poll.
Do all R5’ers like R0?
it would have been nice in that poll, to have more options. i like r5 as ive tried it on blue alert, but i dont wont r0 as it would mess up 65% to much.
Agree r0 very tall. Havent used r5 in a while, I dont remember what it felt likeI’m gonna buy this whole thing for an F13 key and we dont even get a polar bear nov. Least I get to rep R0 here in the poll.
Do all R5’ers like R0?
I like R5 but R0 not as much.
hell yeah, base kit looking good, looking forward to this!I wanted Umka in Carbon R2 but could not justify the price then. Now a fullset but no R0/R5 so I'll pass once again. GL!
Please consider Daily Clack as Oceania vendor :)
Is GMK Nines the same color as GMK Carbon?
Kind of disappointed that this one was prioritized over Sixes. One base kit running instead of 8 kits for more board coverage seems like this set could use more work imo.
Recent owner of R2 Boneyard and Umka mods, adore the set. Would love to see an R2 / V2 of your salty kit, maybe with some old and new colors, could even do a stand alone buy maybe. Good luck, cheers! :thumb:I second this! Need more salt novelties in different colors.
Is the colour U9 for base and N9 for all the lettering etc? Thanks.
Carbon cadet?YES. Oblotsky collab pls??
The simplicity of this set works for me. Traditional profile (1-1-2-3-4-4) also works for me, but I'm not a fan of f-row and can make my peace with 1-2-3-4-5. Either way, not sure my vote matters: T0mb3ry makes the final decision. FWIW, Trad is losing 20/80 as of this morning.
I will be approximately 5% older by the time the keyset arrives
I'll keep the traditional rows for this project due to the lower costs. I want to keep it affordable. Full rows will definitely be more expensive from my experience (more plastic and the og rows will require at least 5 additional keys).
I'd like to thank people for voting anyway. The result speaks for it self. I'll definitely consider it in the next possible project (which i did not done with full cherry rows before - in case of a rerun).
I love beige sets, but isn't this basically GMK Sixes? :|Very similar to GMK Sixes. This is a bit more yellow and sixes is a bit more olive, but still practically identical
Very similar to GMK Sixes. This is a bit more yellow and sixes is a bit more olive, but still practically identicalAhem, once again, this set was designed long before GMK Sixies. So it's more correct to say that GMK Sixies is similar to GMK Umka. GMK Umka was singled out separately from the other set it was part of in 2018.
I love beige sets, but isn't this basically GMK Sixes? :|well, nines is just boneyard. these gmk carbon subsets are really simple, but its alright
Would you consider n e 3u bars?
Hi. Can I confirm the colour for this set is U9 alphas with N9 (and not CR) legends? Thanks :)
Would you consider n e 3u bars?
I've considered this in the beginning. However at this moment there are not many boards utilizing those spacebars and i have decided not to include those in the base kit.
Please help a brother out. It seems this color is a bit elusive and photos range from beige with a slight green/olive tint to creamy white. Which image is a more accurate representation of the color?

The color is in between of both. Left picture is obviously dark because i shot it in the shadows. The right one is overexposed a little bit and it appears to look more white. Did i mentioned people should not trust photos? I do it all the time because we have here a good example.
You don't need it but I want to fanboy out and throw you a bump by asking for updates. February is coming!!

If all goes well, the group buy will start this Friday (5th February). :)
So, I'm primarily an ANSI user nowadays. But just wanted to say I think the ISO support could do with some revision, as it seems to be a "worst of all worlds" approach with the duplicated <> on the ISO key and the <, >. keys. Would be curious what other options might look like!
