What does everyone think of using mockups? I really don't want to include them since I feel they aren't accurate to what the real caps look like. Maybe that section can be CGI Renders/Mockups?

Some of the color schemes we're cataloging have never actually been made (Yolch, Orangesicle). I wouldn't make the "representative" image the mockup or render if there's a photo of the real thing. The contrast between the mockups and the actual sets can be pretty striking!

Great point Krog. I keep getting tunnel vision and forgetting the scope.

No, I think you're right to keep us on track. If we don't stay focused, we'll run out of steam. Let's review why we're doing this. Is it so that we know the minutiae of every groupbuy? (Was it DS ABS DCS?) No. I wanted to do it so that when someone said "SoWaRe is so awesome", I would have someplace to find out what they meant, colorwise. Or, if I wanted to develop a new, ugly color scheme that no one but me will ever want (House Tully) I can make sure it hasn't been done before.

So if all we manage to do is create a list of the color schemes with a representative photo, then I think we've succeeded -- the extra details are just cream that we can add and refine later on. I'm really to blame with my template with all those extra details, LOL!

Yeah that's my feeling too Krog. We make a repository for colors first and all the little details are great additions. Of course I'd like this to be as information-rich as possible but I'm just a try hard :P. It's kinda like playing through the story mode and then being a completion-ist in a video game! ^__^

And cool MKULTRA :D

With different color schemes? I don't think so.

there are countless cherries out there with a lot of differnet color schemes and varieties
There just isn't a ton of information on GH about them..


Do you have any information on the other sets?
I do have some on my desktop at home, so i'll get it to you later
In Sherry's GMK thread, people are confusing a German Police Board for a Triumph-Adler one, but we have reason to believe now that they are the same exact board now...
There is information out there on them..it's just hard to find  :))

Hey Anson,

Cherry Classic Beige, Olivetti, and Ski Data are slightly different than mine.

I will explain.  My Classic Beige, everything is on par, but the white keycaps are very sharp.  For the Olivetti, the beige is suppose to be a darker grey.  The white keycaps are also very sharp.  And lastly, the Ski Data's orange is no longer available.  I went with the new GMK orange known as V2.

The colors used in Two Tone Classic Beige are BJ CP and CR. Olivetti is BJ CP and V4. Ski Data is N9 and V2.  For the Dolch, it's CC, CP, and N9.

DCS is an SP profile, which is supposedly their Cherry replica profile. Or are you referring to the original Cherry and GMK stuff.

Yeah, original Cherry and GMK stuff.  You put Cherry DCS Profile.  SP's 3 top row replicates the Cherry profile, but the 3 bottom row does not.

Just so everyone knows, the four Keepers have access to edit the first four posts that I made. I believe BlueBar added the Triumph Adler info, which is why I'm so confused. People keep telling me I edited something that I didn't lol. No offense to BlueBar, just pointing that out so if I seem lost, that's why.

Image borrowed from this thread. Related to that do we have a plan on what to do with images it'd be nice if we stored all the images in one location to prevent problems if those pictures stop being available. Obviously that could lead to problems if people are possessive of their images and don't want them used here.

And no, there is currently no plan to back up these images. I'm not sure what the best way to do that is. Thoughts anyone?

Also, I'm done editing this for the day. If you've added something and it's not in the OPs, it will be. I would like to thank everyone for contributing so far. And I'm sure the Keepers love me dumping work on them :P

I think Klaxxon should be separated from RA.  They did use different colors, after all (even the reds were slightly different).  I hope someone can contribute more pictures because I only have the RoG

What color codes did RA use and what color codes did Klaxxon use?

adding in 'DCS' really confused me as well for the original cherry sets

DCS is SP!  :p ;)

Already corrected this. If you see any other errors, please let me know.

red(RBV) on gray(GAL)
white(WFK) on red(RBV)

Klaxon

Main post with (roughly) finished entries starting to fill out. We can check these off, they're in the main list:

RainDrop
Retro DSA
Handarbeit
Red Alert
Dolch
Miami
SoWaRe

The following entries are peppered throughout the thread, but have not yet been placed into the main list.

Triumph-Adler
Bumble Bee
Round 4
Noir
Wyse
Klaxon
Ragnarok
Cream Cheese and Green

Which would bring us to a total of 15 color schemes indexed.

MKULTRA said he was working on the following, which haven't appeared in the thread just yet:

UPDATING THE SETS I HAVE KNOCKED OUT HERE.

Toxic
Lily
Hyper Fuse
23 Commando

I'll do the Valentine sets right now.

That leaves the following color schemes to be picked up:

Coffee
Graphite
Yolch
Orangesicle
Sindarin
Sanctuary
Calm Depths
Turtle Power
Skidata
Olivetti


Oh, and sorry Cpt about not using the formatting from earlier.

I'll do another mass update when I'm out of work unless someone else gets to it first.

I feel the Valentine and White Valentine are good enough for inclusion.

Feeling good about Coffee and Turtle Power entries -- only issue is that I need help determining what legends were used. I just assume that they're WYSE for the most part, but if this is incorrect, please correct me!

Nice work.  :thumb:

Yes these both look to be the standard wyse font. In fact the first post from the turtle power gb says that's what they are.

All group buy keycaps from Signature Plastics will use WYSE font unless otherwise stated. It costs around $35 per key to use a non-standard legend, last I heard, and that even applies for other Signature Plastics fonts, such as Isotherm. So not many GBs will use a non-standard font, and will stick with SP's stadard font, WYSE.

Thank you! Also, your updated bbcode template was a big help. My only modification was making the 'rep image' 500px wide (looked better to me on the top page) and added an additional break code between CG renders and Notes. I've also been looking into an offline BBCode editor (meh, nothing I really liked) and figuring a way to download the whole mess into HTML for safekeeping. If someone's photobucket account gets canned we could lose some images, that kind of nonsense.
