Ahhh I'm so on the fence right now. I love the purple alphas but I'm not a big fan of sublegends. Is there no way for an alt alphas kit with no sublegends to be offered this run?

Came back here and wondered why I wasn't vibing the set as much - turns out I greatly prefer text only mods, so I hope that's the direction you are taking with this (haven't read through the entire thread). Seems to make a huge difference on this set IMO.
I would also like to see the darker space as part of the base kit (if at all possible) to go with the arrows, but understand the limitations  :thumb:

Could you add 2 u spacebars to the spacebars kit, that would be awesome. And maybe white alphas with hiragana, that would be just too much for me.

IC BUMP

Updated kitting, deskmats, renders, RAMA collab, GB window, and Geon collaboration.


Please note: I have spent well over a hundred hours deliberating on this kitting, so please respect the decisions I have made. I know it may not please everyone, but I tried my best to be fair and keep everyone in mind while trying to keep prices low.

The GMK Lavender project has been a long eight months, but I have learned so much along the way.


Thank you for all of the support!

-Nick

Added! The international kit is guaranteed to hit MOQ as well for the NorDeUk folk!

Text+icon was necessary for running a set with sublegends in a different language. Having both base kits match in the mods was also important to me, mismatching mods wouldn’t have been a great look. It’s essentially two different sets at that point.

Keeping accent arrows and bars out of base kits was done to keep prices lower. Hope you can understand that reasoning!

I love the new collabs! However, I preferred the old deskmat design. It was simple, clean, and elegant. Is it really out of question now? :(

Since the numpad kit is separated from the base kits, there is no alt version of those keys to match with the Rabendra kit.
Would have preferred the numpad kit to be part of the base kits in this case.

Not sure if I've screamed about this yet but, THAT RAMA TRAY OMG! I can't wait to throw my money at this, I heard the pricing was really good so I'm eagerly watching to see the price list for the regional vendors hehe.

Small thing - your label for stepped caps and r3 control should be 1.75u, not 2u :)

Would have preferred the numpad kit to be part of the base kits in this case.

So in order to keep things as simple as possible, I decided to treat the alternate base kit as more of a novelty option. If I had tried to kit for the alt base with entirely the same compatibility as the standard base kit, it would have ended with either a more expensive base kit than I am okay with or far too many kits than I am okay with running (because they likely would not reach MOQ).

I hope you can understand that reasoning!

+1 prefer the previous kitting. Don't really want to buy a seperated numpad kit. It's usually cost more than the normal base kit. :(

$150 for minimal full size support, could have been such a nice keyset.

At first, I was a little upset that numpad was removed from the basic set, but after pricing reveal - $110 for the basic - what a steal!

Great job!

The 1.5U backspace keys in both base kits are labelled as 2U, FYI. I'd have loved a Rama escape novelty as an ISO user, but the tray looks great.

why is there no F13? also the cheap base kit doesn't matter because you have to spend at least $150 to get a full (but still incomplete) base kit, which is much more expensive than most complete base kits.

I think the board you are thinking of is the Evolv by Nathanalphaman. We just decided to do the Satisfaction75 this time around.
