DCS Vert




Story&Concept
More
Imagine reading in the 21st century -_-.
I was in Discord with my friend, and we were just chilling, talking to one another, until we had nothing to do. We sat there doing nothing listen to music bot "Rythm" (RIP) for like 30 minutes. One of my friends said "Let's make a keycap set, and see how far we can go. I don't think it's that hard to make a set. And let's compare your set to one another." So, I made this. I said to my friends "This will actually hits MOQ, if it is GB." They disagree with me, so we bet. One of my friends saw this clip of people doing a wax mold of their hands. So, if this set actually hits MOQ, they have to send me a wax mold of their pp. If it doesn't, I have to send them mine. Just a normal thing for us. (please help me t—t) You don't have to believe that this story is real, I might made this up.

I want to make a simple dark green set.

More
You guys who are worried if SP is actually going to make this or not. I've asked SP about the sublegends, and they said they are totally fine with those sublegends and they can make it.

This is an explanation of some of the sublegends that might confuse you. QOCK - If you put it in Google Translate, it sound like cock. (I cannot find a meme word that starts with Q.) EYES - refers to Simon's eyes, and also that E-Y-E-S joke. Juan - refers an image of a horse standing on a balcony. This is hilarious to me idk why. ZOOM - refers to Zoom Meeting related jokes. (I cannot find a meme word that starts with Z.)

About those red sublegends. My idea is that those sublegends says "GMK BAD BUT DCS GOOD", as I want to express that don't buy GMK their MOQ system is bad, their lead time is awful, they don't really care about customers. I wanted to make them pad printed because eventually they'll wear out = by the time they wear out, that's the time I hope GMK is good again.





10u Kit



Renders by Izeri
Considering the first idea of this set has a sublegends, Izeri cannot use Fooblitzky's DCS models for all of the caps.
So, Izeri mixed KRK & Fooblitzky's DCS models together to make renders for this set.








As you can see the color of this set is really similar to GMK Taiga. I've asked the designer GMK Taiga (Oggi)
if it is fine for me to use this color scheme, and he said yes.

Deskmats
More
No. We already have enough deskmats, find one or make it yourself.


Q&A
More
What's up with the name
DCS Vert = DCS is DCS Profile & Vert is green in French. Why French? idk it just sounds good. French is sexy.

Why DCS?
I love DCS. It's good.

Can we have pics after GB?
NOOO.

Collab?
No, sorry. I’ve contacted some designers to collab with them, but as I think more about it. I decide not to do any collaboration as this is my first big project, I am trying to make things simple, so it can go as smooth as possible.

With SP you can probably split it up with different mod and alpha kits so everyone could have their choice of alphas.
Not sure about the pricing implications though.

Or add another alpha kit like Paperwork.

Looks like there is a decent amount of people who prefer the old version more than the previous one. I will definitely re-consider it. If there is enough interest, I will do an alternate alphas kit for that.

i mean, i can't argue with that. yes, i choose dcs because of its lead time, but that's not the only reason. i prefer dcs over gmk, i like the sound that it gives, i like its feel. eventhough it is thin and some people don't like it, but i personally really like it.

Thank you, I personally hate cherry legends and font so that's why I look into DCS. I don't want a DCS GMK kind of thing. I aprecitate DCS because it's different than GMK. I don't want this to be turned into "GMK lead time long? Let's do the set in DCS as if it was GMK"

pls use hamburger tab thx
Hamburger tab is too normal and generic for me, I like weird and unique things.

i also like weird **** but offset tab is a dealbreaker for a lot of people

oh nice can't wait for the dcs queue to be as bad as gmk in a few more months
just the rotation of the hobby, find out some other manu for your effortless keycap set that has lower lead times and people buy (regardless of quality) and milk it dry until it becomes a non option

i'm sorry, can you elaborate furthermore why this set looks effortless to you?

you're right, it's likely not, just another dcs ic that seems to appear every other day since people's noses have been picking up the scent that sp has short lead times

DCS lead time is actually like 4-5ish months, so it's still a pretty long wait

it was really low when resin supplies were good and everyone was on the GMK train, but now people are more open to it and are buying it

DCS sets aren't doing numbers like GMK or SA sets (and i don't expect them to pick up that kind of traffic given its totally unwarranted reputation) so it shouldn't get super crazy like in the past with SA

the ABS shortage continues to ease up as well, albeit slowly

basically i think this is the wrong set to be mad about
QFR | MJ2 TKL | "Bulgogiboard" (Keycon 104) | ctrl.alt x GON 60% | TGR Alice | Mira SE #29 | Mira SE #34 | Revo One | z | Keycult No. 1 | AIS65 | First CW87 prototype | Mech27v1 | Camp C225 | Duck Orion V1 | LZ CLS sxh | Geon Frog TKL | Hiney TKL One | Geon Glare TKL

some people asked me, if Izeri is involved in this set or not. just to make things clear Izeri has nothing to do with this set, he only does renders for me. that’s why i put his name in the render section instead of mine, some people got confused because of this.

yeah, i know. but according to SP the minimum MOQ for both of my set are 250 because there are 3 custom colors. but as you can see i put MOQ for Chad Kit for 100. the reason i can do this is because i up the price a little bit so i can actually buy out the 250 MOQ as i know for a fact that it is not going to hit 250 MOQ. but even that it is not enough, so i have to use some of my earnings to fill out the remaining. that’s the most i can do.

The commitment is real. Mad respect Would production take longer than other sets due to complexity of Chad kit? If so do you have a rough idea?

Y eet - i will consider changing it to that.

Z ugg, S idol - i am not going to use any of this because i don't want people's name on my set without their consent.

S hrek, M eta - again, i am not going to change to that because don't want to get in trouble, if i run into any legal problems.

I feel you, DCS Rectifier had barely 37 IC form fill outs, I'm working on now just doing a small batch Alps version of the set, it looks like I was able to get a bit more people interested in the set this way. Although I would have loved to have ran this in normal MX too, I wish more people filled out IC forms as we definitely use those to gage interest on our sets. When numbers are low this doesn't give us a lot of hope that a set will do well at market. I pray you don't cancel this set, I went in on DCS Paperwork and plan on doing the same for this one, I think I've filled out the IC form for this set a few times now too.

probably not. i noticed that 2 weeks ago, i'm in the process of redoing all of the sublegends. if unfortutely this cannot be fixed, this'll be pad-printed with smaller sublegends or i'll need to cancle it (because of low interests i'm afraid that it is not going to hit moq, so i'm leaning towards canceling it). thanks for pointing that out tho  :thumb:

Nooooo, don't cancel!  The only double-shot sublegend issue I see is with the [{ keycap.  You could use just two letters, or cancel that specific keycap.

Also, the sublegends don't need to be as large as your B RUH example to be within SP's manufacturing capability.  The size of the capital letters in SP's sublegends should work, like P and D on the render's PgDn.

Regarding the red sublegends, how about pad printing on the front rather than on top?

Same here, don't cancel the chad kit! I really love the kit, and the whole set for that matter.

Still hoping for that sweet 10u spacebar  ;D

next update mate

Can't wait for this. Need me some green, especially in DCS. Great pricing too  :thumb:

Edit: Is there a possibility of windowed keys (yes the SP windows) or a 10u bar?

there’s always a possibility, i’ll look into it.

With the sublegends larger than shown in the renders, will BRO come out OK?

probably not. i noticed that 2 weeks ago, i'm in the process of redoing all of the sublegends. if unfortutely this cannot be fixed, this'll be pad-printed with smaller sublegends or i'll need to cancle it (because of low interests i'm afraid that it is not going to hit moq, so i'm leaning towards canceling it). thanks for pointing that out tho  :thumb:

Nooooo, don't cancel!  The only double-shot sublegend issue I see is with the [{ keycap.  You could use just two letters, or cancel that specific keycap.

Also, the sublegends don't need to be as large as your B RUH example to be within SP's manufacturing capability.  The size of the capital letters in SP's sublegends should work, like P and D on the render's PgDn.

Regarding the red sublegends, how about pad printing on the front rather than on top?

i think i’ll change it to two letters word. B RUH letters follow SP’s double shot guideline (https://docs.google.com/file/d/1Bv3VVh56S94GjYJuvkemIw1-51A67pmY/edit?usp=docslist_api&filetype=msword). they are as thick as alphas legends. i can make them smaller in height, so they take up less space, but it’ll look weird. i don’t know how they do their PgDn, i have to ask them about that.

for red sublegends, that’s interesting, i’ll think about it.

Update regarding sublegends

So someone wanted to see renders with the correct sublegends. I photoshopped the photos, and the sublegends are too big making the overall alphas looks too clustered and disproportionate. This is my fault for not looking at it first. I tried fix it by making it smaller. I asked SP regarding the double shot guide line that they gave to me when it is applied to designing letters they're as thick as the alphas. So I asked them about the mods legends, they're noticeably smaller and thinner than the alphas legends. And if I design the sublegends to have the same thickness and height as the mods legends, can they make it. They didn't say yes or no, but they give me the dimension of it, so I think they're ok with it. I go back to check my renders and oh boy am I lucky the sublegends are ± 2pt from the dimension that they give me a bit more a bit less on some keys. I don't see a big difference, so I think it's not worth editing them all over again. Luckily I still have the old sublegends file, so everything is fine.

TLDR; the renders sublegends already have the correct sublegends which are as big as the mods legends.
Edit : don't worry about the ± 2pt difference, it has already been fixed, but just to be safe i will check it again before it goes to gb.
