That's some dark gray! Can't wait to see it in person

[Data]

Managed to check on the anodized dark gray top today, they look pretty good. We should be expecting the pink ones in the next 2-3 days.

Looking good.  :cool:

Excellent

This is what I’m looking for in updates.

The details of the manafacuring process are as interesting as the final product from my perspective.

[shantanujoshi]

Damn these are turning out gorgeous hope there's extras too.

[wtzll]

Holly crap! If anyone wants to give me their spot on this I want in!

That dark gray looks amazing, so happy I went with it.  The excitement is creeping up more and more everyday.

Same here! Every day I get a little more excited I really appreciate all the hard work they are putting into it because I'm sure it's difficult! Can't wait for some more updates!

MOQ was only 2/3rds filled and the remaining 1/3rd had to be purchased by the GB, so there should be extras to be had.  Keep your fingers crossed!

Hi guys, just thought to drop by for some quick update. The GMK set has just arrived at Sheraton, he will get a nice cafe on Saturday to take some nice pics. Polycarbonate bottom is in progress, there still a little warp (very little) with the parts, but it doesn't affect once everything is put together. Still expecting the pink anodized top, maybe tomorrow said the anodizing guy.

Enjoy the rest of the day, guys!

With it being so late I'm going to assume the answer is "no", but would it be possible to change the color of my order? I want to switch from Grey to Black.

I'm thinking of building a new PC and I want the case and keyboard to match. Buying a black case or a case with black accents would be much easier than grey.

If it ends up being too late, I would recommend plasti-dip, you can coat it black, it wont harm the finish and you can remove it easily any time. If done right you can get a really smooth matte black finish that will protect the aluminum underneath and hold up to use without any issues.

Yes. Plastidip a perfect, gorgeous machined and anodized aluminum surface, because all of us the first thing we do when we get a nice thing is throw it into the dirt to give it that beautiful, covered in scratches dust and grime finish. I suggest you do that, and THEN plastidip it, just to extra ruin the keyboard.

I don't know what your PC budget is like but Caselabs sells a gunmetal gray case. Not cheap, but not that hard to source.

Also, it's my dream PC case.  Next year, maybe. Good luck. Sounds like an interesting project, matching PC case and keyboard case.

What are you even talking about? He is having second thoughts about the color and I offered a completely harmless and easy solution.

Nice! That might be a perfect alternative solution actually.

Ah, I came across that case when looking for some grey/gunmetal cases myself. Way out of my budget, but it's definitely a beautiful case.

And thanks! I want to go for a very uniform look, like something you would see at the top of r/battlestations . So I want all peripherals and devices to match very well.

It's harmless sure but not a solution. Plastidip is stupid.

Any more pictures? I'd love to see a silver case.

The silver will come later, after pink and blue. I was informed that the pink was already ready on last Friday, didn't have the time to check though. Will most probably do it tomorrow. 

[juahenza]

Got some of these today

Black


Pink


Btw, I do have some anodized in purple as well. It's a mistake due to some communication error, I will keep them as it is since they do look pretty good. If any of you want to change your case color to purple, you may send me a PM.

That pink looks so vibrant, real eye candy. Also the purple HAS to go on an either Skelator or Laser. Black is classy as always. Thank you for the pictures juahenza.

If people switching to purple frees up a black or dark grey, I'd love to buy it (in addition to my existing order).

[eddible]

Looking forward to seeing the blue ones!

Less than 10 I'm afraid.

Dayum, purple looks lit    Got to see the prototype at the LA meetup, can't wait

In case anyone was wondering what a purple Exent would look like with Laser or Skeletor, I did some more pixel art.

Is there a website or something that you use to generate these? I see them in people's signatures and would like some of my own!

People make them with MS paint. It's really not too difficult. If you're not so artistically inclined there's a pixel art thread somewhere full or these images (too lazy to find it), most common keyboards have already been done. If you have any specific requests feel free to PM me too, I think they're pretty fun to make.

Here you go! The purples seem to match very well, at least they do on the purple Exent photo and the troubled minds render.
