Post by: jmsp0511 on Mon, 18 May 2020, 18:28:54
How I developed this keycap set:

The original inspiration came from a pink himalayan truffle salt I used while I was cooking.
The idea evolved but the overall color scheme stuck with me, as well as the idea of using truffle as one of the main ideas.

Without boring you with details.... 
The final outcome was using "Trüffelschwein" as the main theme.
I also decided to go with the German name to pay homage to GMK.

Fun facts:
Trüffelschwein (Truffle Pig), are utilized in finding wild truffles. (In modern times, dogs are more commonly used)
Wild truffles are very hard to find, and very expensive, especially the winter white variety selling for up to $5000 per pound.
Truffles are found in roots of trees, and maintain a symbiotic relationship.

The base kit compatibility is quite good (and, by extension, the Alternate Mods kit). The only suggestions I have are:

- Consider replacing R4 \| and R3 #~ with R4 <> and R3 \|.

- Consider adding an F13 key, which has quickly become the new "in" key. You will be asked to make it mod-colored and alpha-colored by different people.

- Consider adding a space bars kit (with an Alice B key).

This is one in the same. Same OP. He came back with this as a more official starting IC for his truffle idea.

I love the further development of the truffle theme (had no idea truffle pigs were a thing and it works so well with the pink). The name holds a lot more weight while being shorter than the first so that worked out great. Kitting is simple, inclusive, and makes sense. Looks great! Really excited to see it all tied together with novelties and desk mats.

One of the things I liked about the first IC were those images of those salt jars. It added a ton of warmth and coziness that I think works well with this set. I think I would really enjoy if that was expanded upon in the deskmats or novelties or something. Going back to my salt lamp idea but also maybe like a spice cabinet full of truffle salt or a basket of truffles or something. I can see myself getting really immersed in that. I will still be following closely whichever direction you take it though.

Ahhh snap my bad I didn't know it was gone I just remebered having seen the old one.

No need to thank you're idea is great I had no idea truffle pigs were a thing. The colors are a great combo as well, if it didn't go against my code I'd jump the gun.

lol I would love to move faster, and as you obviously can see, I need to make some adjustments to the basekits and alt mods kit.
As well as work on the novelties, and spacebars.
All of them are being worked on diligently.

I've also reached out to multiple custom artisan makers for collaboration, so there is work being done there as well.

Of you have the black theme set for the forum, look at the thread starters profiler pic. You can see the difference between the dark blue her is using for the keycaps and black.

"I also decided to go with the German name to pay homage to GMK." 

And yet you chose to have no int kit so you can't have a board in ISO DE (or other ISO.) Ridiculous.

No thanks.

hi I'm quite interested of your colorway. But just want to make sure, you mentioned its that dark shade blue color, but as many times as I saw the rendered image it seems 100% black to me. Are you sure it's not black? I cannot really imagine if it's that dark navy blue color combined with the pink

Look up RAL 5004. That's the color that is used. I would say it's more black than blue but that's just me. In fact, I cannot see any blue hues in it but I'm sure it's there just not a whole lot.

Hey, i just spoke to Candykeys this afternoon, they said it was supposed to go live today, but I still dont see it either.
I think they maybe having some technical difficulties at the moment, I will check with them again tomorrow.
Thanks for your interest in the set, I will keep you posted.

I just added a few more renders in the front page.
If you go look at the Black Frog TKL with the alternate mods on them, you can tell the difference between the black board, and the very dark blue color used on my keycap.
The RAL 5004 is a very very dark blue, and I bet you in most lighting it will look black.
But if you look at it in daylight, or certain angles, you can see the dark blue hue.
