These kits looks good, but are there any chances for a no OS specific key? Like a Diamond, Star, GH, or something like that?
I am interested, glad to see HHKB layout support!Nick these only work on MX boards, not Topre.

wow this is great IC MOZ :cool:Yes, that's the Japanese font we'll be using.
so will this japanese set happen? :pShow Image(http://i65.tinypic.com/211kwp4.jpg)
im in for this :thumb:
Great initative. So glad that originative have grabbed a hold of your design talents :cool: :cool:Thanks
Yeah, that's the default MS font for Hangul, Gungsuh, which we'll be using.
They'll be different, we'll be using a more oriental version of the Hangul font. For Japanese well be using a slightly thicker version of a Gothic font, one that matches the Cherry legends in weight.
I can't comment on exact pricing, I'll ask Sheraton to chip in with that information, but I can tell you it most likely will be sub-$100.
We deliberated about ISO, complete 1800 support, etc, but decided on the current offering to keep the price as reasonable as possible.

Interested in Hangul :)
Who would be the manufacturer btw if you don't don't mind me asking?
Keycaps will be manufactured by the same OEM as EnjoyPBT

yes ,i know BSP has less keys and some crooked keycap moulds(already improving a lot).
i have seen and used PBT sets made from the author of enjoyPBT on Sublimation. He does pretty well on Sublimation and is good on sublimation technique but is limited to the inferior enjoyPBT. BSP PBT has higher quality. we could choose BSP as main keys and enjoyPBT as secondary choice which BSP doesn't have.
The price is probably high but i accept that

the arabic option for colors option 1 and 2 are the same. should be an option for say, green?That's correct, it's been corrected.
I think the kit is missing a R1 delete key for 75% layouts (top to bottom: R1 delete, R1 home, R2 pg up, R3 pg dn, R4 end). If that key cannot be added, hopefully the keycap colours from this buy will match the 1800 kits Shadovved offered. Looking forward to the rest of the mock ups!Ah yes, should incorporate that.
is the classic black that is on sale in originative are made by MOD keyboards?

Edit, Added Russian and Hangul as well.
Hey sherry, the cyan will be the same shade as the blue Hangul on your site?
It's hard to say what it will look like when produced, but yes, I was thinking of making it slightly darker for better legibility. The cyan also suffers from this but is quite popular.
blue-red hangul looks sweet :p
oh yeah still waiting on jap mockup :cool:

Fun fact, the blue and red colors used for the blue-red combo are the exact ones as the reference colors for the official flag.
I'd also like feedback on more thing, does the classic Win logo look alright in the non-black colors or do you think the new Windows logo will look better?
Uploaded mockups for Japanese set. Scrapped the Red-Black in favour of Red/Pink-Black set as they were too close. Added Purple/Cyan as requested. Purple used for the Japanese set has a bit more red in it as compared to the one used for Classic set. I felt it goes better with the Cyan.
If there's enough interest I can add other colors, will wait for Sheraton to comment on MOQ per color.
Definitely interested! I wonder if it would be better to use Gateron white (milk) alphas instead of beige? Not really sure because I've only had Gateron beige and they felt a bit more yellow-ish compare to GMK U9 and original Cherry beige alphas.

Gateron's beige does look a little more yellowish then U9, but it's closer then what the bright white (milk) would be.
I actually really like Gateron's beige color

That's true but the symbols on O & P are about as big as the Japanese ones.
If you made them bigger they'd be too big & if you only made the smaller symbols bigger there would be an inconstancy in font sizes, assuming they're all the same font size right now.

But he has extras.
I got my EnjoyPBT sets yesterday. I have to ask, will these sets have a thinner font? When you compare the EnjoyPBT font to old Cherry double shots, there is a noticeable different in thickness. I think I prefer the thinner font :thumb:

I mean dyesub is just going to be thicker than doubleshot naturally. I bet if you compared the enjoypbt to OG dyesubs they'd still be thicker, but it would be a less noticeable difference.
So will these be Gateron caps with a new company doing the dyesubbing?I can't be sure that its Gateron but it definitely looks like it. It's thick and cherry profile. I ordered some Gateron blanks so I can compare them in a few days.

It depends on who does the dyesubbing and on what base. For ex. IMSTO dyesubs on BSP were noticeably cleaner and less fuzzy than either IMSTO dyesubs on Gateron base or EnjoyPBT dyesubbing, which are comparable in terms of quality.
AFAIK MOZ hasn't disclosed who's doing the dyesubbing here but I suspect it's going to be enjoyPBT based on the color selection. Until MOZ says otherwise, I would assume they will look fairly similar to enjoyPBT dyesubs.
How is this different from EnjoyPBT which is still on sale by Shadovved?

Would it be possible to make the right winkey on the Black/Red Japanese set have black text for カタカナ and ひらがな?I feel like having it red doesn't match, since the winkey flag is red also.I think I should make the red dot black for consistency.
Wil there be a planck/atomic add-on in the future?Definitely not for this round, we aren't looking to add any more keys. We can however consider a generic sort of addon for the future, something like a "mod set", with only primary legends and secondary legends which will be common to all the language kits in Light Grey color base. This is to meet the MOQ if such a addon is ever run. This is more or less consistent with the policy we'll follow for the ISO.

Looks tempting. Will you have any samples to show before launching the GB, or do we have to trust blindly the mockups?
Probably :D
By the way, this was not a criticism regarding the way this GB is organized, just something I was wondering about. Just to be sure that it does not come across as a negative comment.

That's the way it's usually done, but I remember that when Matt3o was designing the keyset for the Whitefox (dyesub PBT from an undisclosed Chinese manufacturer — not Gateron/EnjoyPBT) he had samples made. Obviously, it may be more complicated here since there will be a lot of colors, but you never know. At least to see what the cyan, pink and other special colors would look like on a few keys. Since it's dyesub, it should be easier to have a few keys done first than with doubleshot keycaps, but I guess that depends on whether the GB organizer considers it worthwile or if he's confident he can sell sets just based on mockups.
Regarding "what is in the mockups will be very much exactly as what will be produced", there is often some variation. Sometimes it's for the best (Hyperfuse looks better in real life than on mockups), sometimes... ask to GMK TA buyers.
would there be any chance at all of doing icon mods?
would there be any chance at all of doing icon mods?
Do you means icon only mods?
I highly doubt it, as there are few takers for icon only mods vs icon+text. It's supposed to be popular in EU, but many members here and on DT prefer them with text legends as well.Perhaps a separate kit for icon-only mods could work if there's enough interest right?
I know this is a stretch, but is there any chance to make a Colemak side kit for the more popular sets? I'm dying to find one in Cherry profile :(

You know what I was thinking the other day, maybe for the next round we can do a set with primary legends as Colemak and secondary as QWERTY. Similarly one for Dvorak.
And I don't know if it's possible, but can you make Colemak side kits for already released popular GMK sets like Hyperfuse or Dolch (or even the upcoming GMK Carbon)? Not sure if the PBT colors can be similar enough to GMK

I think the issue would be more that they'd feel completely different. It would be pretty uncomfortable.

OK cool. I never saw the name Gateron so I've been wondering.Originative mentioned in their new pbt valentine preorder that MOD works with other groups to get their dyesubs, and that enjoyPBT is one of those groups. I also received my Gateron blanks and as far as I can tell the Classic Black from Originative is Gateron. It looks like the exact same thickness and the caps have the same texture.
I look forward to hearing about your comparison.

As another Korean kb enthusiast, I prefer Gungsuh font. However, the set already looks nice so I can go either or.
Will we be able to get a more accurate pricing on the sets in the interest check? Which ones would cost $70 which ones are $90? Also, do these prices include shipping?
My knowledge of fonts is getting a bit rusty but I believe that the font used in the Originative set is Gulim, another one of the default Korean fonts on Windows OS. Aesthetics-wise, I definitely prefer the Originative font due to the sans-serif look. (which is pretty ironic given that all of the design students and faculty loved to hate on the font in school ;D)

Gungsuh looks really nice also. Korean character printing on the set might be a bit too small for that font though. The size might not do justice for this font. As the previous poster, I'll go either way. I'm just thankful for this GB .
Oh, and if I might make another small request...
On the mockups it doesn't look like the "bar" on the F and J keys affected the position of the Hangul letters, but on the Originative set the "ㄹ" on the F key was slightly pushed up because of the bar and does stand out quite a bit. Could the Hangul letterings be positioned to be even across all the keys, on this set?

Darn, was looking to join this buy specifically for the thick hangul font keysets :(
I have a black & red hangul set with the thick hangul font that I use quite a lot, probably my most used keyset, and was really hoping to get some more colors (black&blue/black&purple). On the flip-side haven't even mounted the EnjoyPBT hangul ones I got from Shaddovved's buy because I don't like the thin font.
Sadly for me personally, going with the Originative font would make me skip this group buy.Gungsuh looks really nice also.

It's really interesting to hear your opinion on the fonts Bananaplum.

Who will manufacture? Tried to find info about and it is not specified in the OP. Says only that Originative will handle the logistics.
The manufacturer is MOD. They are working on the manufacturing of the keycaps and the dye-subbing process. So it's now possible to request new legends. I've been working on this for awhile, and I wanted to make more legends available to the community.
The keycaps are thick PBT. There are many option colors, but we will stick with the one for this group buy.

Cool! Thank you for the info. So it is now possible to request SE, NO, DK, FI legends also?
Definitely possible, but the MOQ will be real high. The MOQ for Arabic and Japanese are currently at 200 each.

200 each colorway or 200 each font?
Hmm, I doubt we'll reach MOQ even if we gather all Nordic GeekHackers.Definitely possible, but the MOQ will be real high. The MOQ for Arabic and Japanese are currently at 200 each.

each font/legend. each colorway is much lower. I'll definitely help out with the group buy to make sure we can reach it though.
Wow that's a high moq. Still, i'd really like this so i could try out PBT dysubs other than gateron.I think these are still produced by Gateron.

Who manufactures these, and who is doing the dyesubbing on these?

Another question, if there is a mod-colored tilde key why isn't there a mod-colored forward slash key?
We got some samples for the Royal TA style on Cyrillic. We can have that option for other caps if people like :)Can you post some pictures of the samples (the Royal TA Cyrillic)?
There's also some samples with the Black/Red Hangul, but people already know how those seem.

If it makes you feel any better, we're going to do an 'exclusive' Purple and Cyan colorway, Skeletor PBT :)
Awsome! One question though. Did the Hangul font change to something slightly thicker as discussed before?https://www.originativeco.com/products/modern-beige?variant=18906334405
The Group Buy is up! :)

There is no option in the dropdown for Japanese (Blue & Red) but the picture is there...
Wait, Skeleton blue and purple for the caps or legends?

we have removed this option for now, but we'll add it back if the demand is there. I wanted to give the other Japanese sets a chance lol.

Why not both?
*Insert Meme*
Any chance to run these sets in black ala Miami Nights?
there's no arabic in gold option at the drop down menu. is it available? the picture is there.Any chance to run these sets in black ala Miami Nights?
Not possible, you can't dye-sub lighter legends on darker PBT plastic. Only option right now is double-shot ABS with secondary legends being pad-printed.
