Might have to go against my rule of "don't buy keysets in languages you don't speak" rule for this. The colours are just great.

Seems like there's a lot of desire for icon only mods! I'm personally really interested in this for the icon+text mods, so if icon ends up being used for the base would you consider adding icon+text to the Latin alphas kit? I know it doesn't necessarily make sense with the Cyrillic alphas but I love the look

Icon + text is my preference as well. Especially with classic windowed keys and a nod to the og cyrillic sets.

I've been looking for such a set since the Nautilus Nightmares disappointment, finally I found it!

Any chance to have the base kit with Latin letters instead of Cyrillic, or at least split the alphas and the mods so one can then choose their preferred alphabet?

I don't often say this... but with the cyrilic alpha's I do feel that ICON only would be the way to go.

I would love to see icon mods in base and a windowed R1 Cherry keycap in the expansion kit.

Nice set! Would you consider all-icon mods? Would work a lot better with the Cyrillic alphas than having Cyrillic monolegends alphas and English mods imo. Also please consider adding 3 key 40s support in base!


Came here to echo the opinion that icon mods would look better with the Cyrillic alphas in the base kit.

Totally agree that icon+ English text mods don't fit with cyrillic alphas.

Looks really good, love the green.

Personally I don't understand the argument against text+icons, since you'd still have plenty of other english mods like escape, nav keys and bottom row...I guess if it came to me I'd go for whatever og russian kbs have always used?

Strongly agree with the latin alternate base kit instead of latin alphas though. I can touch type ok, but when it comes to punctuation I need to look, and that layout is all over the place. As much as I love the look of cyrillic I'd have to go for the latin anyway...

(please also consider accents!)

(And please consider novelties!)

(And please consider novelties!)

So I initially saw the monolegends being used on this keyboard, which has text+icon mods.
I currently still intend to go with this unless the IC form proves that icon modifiers are massively preferred.

I might inquire about making custom russian text+icon molds, but we'll have to see about that...



As far as accents go, I am satisfied with how the set looks as is and don't see any sort of accent improving on it.

Definitely on the icon only mods hype train. Down for cyrillic but I would LOVE Latin-Cyrillic combo. No matter what I'll be getting one of everything you have available for the set, the green is perfect.

Great looking set! Green, so I’m in. Love the R1 “=“ sign. (I have a rarely used keypad that could use that.) FWIW, I agree the colors in the in situ layout grab my attention more than the renders! but probably KLE is less accurate than renders?

Looks really cluttered with cyrillic alphas and text+icon mods, hope there will be an option for icon only mods as I do like the initial render that caught my attention of this otherwise great set.

Alt mod kits are far too expensive to have as a child kit for a GMK set imo, and I am set on the colors.

Would you consider doing cyrillics as sublegends?
AFAIK the RU-sublegended molds are in the works (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=104745.0) and it would be a real killer combo.
