Definitely an interesting layout and board, something I might be up for trying. Unlike most, I am not overly attached to USB-C, yet.
Also, unlike most it seems, I tend to NEED the WK, which is the only thing that really puts me on the fence. As a Sys Admin/Net Admin I use the WK DOZENS of times a day for commands and not having it, or having to move it to somewhere else that is not normal, really kills me.

You are most assuredly in the minority there with the Win key. the beauty of QMK is that programability, I'm sure you could come up with a position for you that you find comfortable and usable I'm glad you find the layout and design interesting, that was kinda the whole point. different enough to stand out but similar enough to grab attention..

Please just make it happen. It's beautiful.

Interested. ISO support is amazing.

Definitely interested. I like 1800s and this is a good-looking minimal version of it.

[UPDATE 05/04/19]

So we have a big update guys, prototype is in hand and built. Minor issues with certain parts that would be addressed in GB, such as sending the wrong plate file without the flipped space stab cutouts(doh), hang marks from the anodization, which the manu told us about and offered to re-do, but we wanted it in hand as its only a proto weren't fussed about MINOR (they were really minor) hang marks and a very small dink near the esc key i cant even see in the pics.
Here is a list of updates and changes for the final.

unbuilt weight was 1.7kg for those interested
changing usb connector to type-c
reshaping the usb cutout
adding engraved logo on the bottom
will offer winkey option in GB
amending plate file as stab cutout for ISO enter was a little too tight
slightly amending fillet radius on inside of the case as pcb was catching.

Gallery of Proto

I'll leave you with a Fully built image above and a gallery link will be added in also.

This looks like a win. I really really like this layout.

Based on the current time line we are hoping for sometime towards the end of May.

Expect a second IC thread soon with more information and options for you guys.

FullSend · « **Reply #65 on:** Thu, 11 April 2019, 05:16:32 »

I'm in! Love it. Is there any consideration of a brass weight and plate option?

ocm · « **Reply #66 on:** Fri, 12 April 2019, 06:45:32 »

This looks incredibly promising. It seems you have more than 25 interested people, is there a chance you'd raise the available units?

Thank you for the kind words.
We could consider it, but as this as our first GB we would like to reduce the margin of error as much as we can which is why we wanted to keep it relatively small, though we are aware that we do seem to have more interested than the 25 we had planned for ( we never imagined anyone would like it tbh ).

Also loving the work you've done on Leviathan and will be looking to grab a set of that either during GB or aftermarket if funds don't allow me to get it in GB.

Such a cool concept. Very interested as things develop

Bleddyn · « **Reply #69 on:** Sun, 19 May 2019, 15:36:23 »

Thank you dude. Keep an eye out soon.

Built the proto on stream earlier (despite some tech difficulties

) and couldn’t be happier with its looks

Don't beat yourself up over the camera issues. Stream was fine.

The board has gone to GB and more info can be found in the GB thread here on GH and there is a link to the GB thread in the first post.
