Looks great! Definitely need to see more renders of a side angle to see the diffuser... and color options

[jacky]

Reserved!

[cldskt]

Liking that thicc bezels and customizable name tag! Hoping to see more pictures from different angles and more color renders as well. Will be following on the thread

I’d be interested if there was an option without name tag also

[AMongoose]

Am I correct in assuming you like large bezels?

[typischt]

The color of the plate looks amazing! Are you planning on having different colors as well? I‘d probably go with this pastel green anyways, but other pastel colors would be intresting too!

[excluisve]

Wait more pics

I am interested in this 

[koduh]

Like others have said, more angles would be nice. Also.... those bezels are HUUUUUUGE.

[M]

Interested, I can already tell this is going to look amazing just from the render 

Any info on angles or possible price?

Edit: That bottom row...why so open

[zwartho]

holy bezel..... I need more renders

[KeLorean]

you had me at hello

I have a feeling that this just might satisfy my Alf x3 itch if the price is right!

Looking forward to more renders.

[lecorsair]

Color combo is so appealing, with a macro column as a bonus! Definitely interested. Just a small suggestion- location of name name is awkward imo, might look better aligned against the plate edge. Or move it to the bottom:

Also, please make the pcb QMK compatible.

[bball2]

Reminds me of the CA66, looks dope :-)

I think aligned win the plate edge would look good. Not sure how I feel about the bottom.

[mudcakehoney]

Definitely not the bottom, maybe the rear edge

Also interested sans name tag.

[The_judge_168]

Interesting design, I like the color not sure I like the angles

[jacky]

hello guys

thanks for the advise

[KaosJ]

Brass weight or no?   

What's the angle? 

Any other render? 

(It's cool btw, i would like to see more)

Side view with the RGB underglow, bottom design, weight design (?) renders would be great!

oooh, neat


also interested in how the weight design looks like and the lighting implementation

[tanvir175]

This is pretty nice. Would like to see renders from other angles, as others have said.

[oldcat]

Is there a render wth keycaps? And is this layout possible to have the arrow cluster?

[oh_chesteroni]

Based on the plate layout, I would hazard to guess that arrow cluster is possible. Then again I guess OP is the only one who can confirm this.

[mudcakehoney]

I’m going to say it’s a hard yes on the arrow cluster, seems to be a 65% layout with function row on the left

[NookOppa]

Liking how this looks so far, would be interested in seeing other angles as others have mentioned. 

[M]

300 and a MAO option? This might turn out to be a good competitor to the new alf board for people that are willing to wait

[senter]

pretty reasonable price for a heavy keyboard with brass weight.

convex engraving nameplate can be dope with a proper custom logo

Hope the color can be adjusted as close as possible to the render. I like the yellow-green color.

[jacky]

New renders will come later with weight design and new bottom !

plz wait thank!

[InvidiousIgnoramus]

Personally, id prefer two columns on the left side, but I'm still 100% down to get something like this.

Thanks for adding more pics to the OP, do you know what connector the PCB will use?

[zwartho]

Profile looks dope! Would look awesome in a beige colorway

Would love to see this in a dark navy blue.

Yes!

[mudcakehoney]

Can I throw a burgundy case colour in the mix as well?

[tanvir175]

I second a blue but I'd like to see something like Lake in M60-A

[_ODIN_]

like the design. the bezel could be a bit thinner

[Mag_Flux]

I’d be interested if there was an option without name tag also

Nice! Definitely interested and would prefer an option with no name tag as well. Would only be interested in the QMK PCB version and would love to see a gray color option.

[_ODIN_]

burgundy red or dark (christmas tree) green ?!

[Harms]

In for Navy blue as well.

I want to see a nice bright orange color! I think orange with Mao white plate might look stunning. Are even a Light Orange with the Light Lime colored plate could look good also. I like the non standard colors your showing so far. including the Banana toned color. Shoot even a Banana yellow with Mao plate would be nice.

[jacky]

About color

It will limited to 5

Navy blue I will make this for a prototype

Also think grey instead of rose gold .is there much people like rose gold ?

[_ODIN_]

I wouldn't be interested in rose gold
