What's up everyone! I'm back with a cute new set I've been working on a for bit!
GMK Pink on Navy
Group Buy Starts December 1st!!

The Set
The idea for PoN came from my love for the colors navy, and of course the subtle hints of pink in olivia. I've aimed to keep the kits simple, Pon uses 2 custom RAL colours.

The Petal
I've been working closely with sour on a few projects, and one of the first things we discovered about each other is how we share the dislike for big flashy novelties. Without further ado, we present to you the Sour x Walker Petal. A basic, minimalistic novelty which you will see not only in PoN, but with future sets ran by both Sour and myself. We hope you enjoy this design, and would love to hear what you think!

Special Thanks
Shoutout to the homies for everything.
Sour - Really enjoying collaborating with you! Incredibly talented fella here folks.
Chad - you the man. thanks for teaching me to render, endless feedback, and a good mate to banter with.
Angelinhell - for being at my side in everything I do in this community.
Capsy - for the endless criticism and support.
Warren - much love brother, thanks for the support. <3
Moving Forward
1) Gather feedback
2) More Renders
3) Collabs
-
Classic and gorgeous color combination imo.
-
GMK Jack Wills :D. Love the clothes love the keycap.
-
ngl, I actually dig this
-
Very cute. Would love to see 40s support if possible. Here’s a great image to use as a guidepost for basic 40s support.
Thanks for the consideration!
-
Looks very similar to gmk posh! What are the RAL colours?
-
extremely close to GMK Blink
-
I like this a lot more than I thought I would when I read the title. Tbh I can’t commit. It’ll depend on how much other money I’ve burned on keyboards when the time comes. Best of luck!
-
extremely close to GMK Blink
I wouldn't say extremely close, but I do see how the pink looks similar and the navy blue can almost look black in some renders of the set. I think it's different enough to be ok, plus this is full Pink on Navy, where as Blink has Black on Pink Mods and Pink on Black Alphas.
-
I love it, but need Planck compatibility. Ideally a kit with both the alphas and ortho mods, like the 40bit kit that GMK space cadet had. In a pinch, novelties with generous 1u options on every row would work.
-
Always knocking it out of the park, best of luck brother, you won't need it but huge respect and love for you <333
-
I don't know why, but this makes me think of women's jeans from when I was a kid. Otherwise, I love it.

Update 5.3.20:
- Changed base kit to minimize price, would love some feedback!
-

It's similar, but there are enough differences.
This is blue and pink instead of black and pink.
So I'm calling it GMK Bluink ;D
-
I really like this!
-
Like this set! GL!
-
It would be nice to see R3 PgUp, R4 PgDn added to the base kit for 65%/75% users.
You're also missing a R3 ISO key (the one that goes with the ISO enter). I recommend using R3 \| and R4 <> (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=90706.msg2894820#msg2894820) (in place of the current R4 \|).
The 1.75u space key in the spacebars kit isn't very useful (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=104385.msg2899054#msg2899054) and as such can be removed.

I really like those novelties not just because I like simple geometric design, but it helps round out ortholinear coverage (ortho4lyfe)

Firefly but pink. Love it.

Rama? I'm in if so.

Niceee

I have the same question.

Petal novelties remove the need to add separate R3 PgUp, R4 PgDn keys. Nice!
What I said about the missing R3 ISO key and the 1.75u spacebar not being useful still stands, though :)

What row is the RAMA cap? R1? R4? It looks spectacular.

Looking good! Actually pretty surprised nobody has done these colors before, they do look very good together!
Best of luck :thumb: :thumb:

please provide information for the colors. Missing 40% kit :(

big fan of that rama

This set is growing on me. Are the renders supposed to be black anodized cases? I'm worried the navy would look off with black. This looks a lot nicer than GMK Blink to me, both in colors and the Latin-only base. I got in on the group by for the Space65 CyberVoyager BlackGold with replacement pink badges, and this might go well with it.
-
This looks sick! Will def cop that deskmat ;D

The novelties are intended to add some support. Possibly a 40s kit in the future.

The cases are a number of colors, I'll post some new renders on light boards in the future, to give a better idea of contrast.

• The 1.75u key in the spacebars kit should be replaced with a 1.25u convex space key.
Explanation: 1.75u space is only used on three 40% keyboards in total, whereas 1.25u is useful not just for Alice layouts, but also for common split spacebar configurations (2.75u+1.25u+2.25u) on many different layouts.
• Since there is what appears to be basic ortho support in the base kit (thanks to the 1u novelties), you should probably include 2× 1u space in the spacebars kit as well, for full grid ortho layouts.
• Finally, consider adding a R3 1.25u Fn or Tab key to base for basic staggered 40% support.
• I would also like to see R3 PgUp, R4 PgDn added to base, but I understand if you decide against this because of the presence of 1u novelties.
However, it would be nice to see a R1 novelty added as well, as this would let 65% users cover their entire right column with novelties.
-
Just as a PSA, a single 'B' in spacebars kit is far more expensive than it would be in base, given how the rest of the keys are convex and this is a single doubleshot key. Echoing Konstantin's earlier comment about adding 40s support one way of doing that would be adding minimal 40s in with spacebars since you are already increasing the price of that kit with doubleshot keys. Alternatively you could move the 'B' to base, which is something a fair few sets have already done.

This is interesting, thanks for sharing this information.

The final spacebar kit does not include the B. There is r4 support with the novelties in the base kit as well.

Hello just coming through asking for icon + text mods thanks good bye

Update 6.30.2020
- Announced Vendors

The base kit appears to be missing a R3 ISO alpha key. Currently it only has a R4 \|. I would suggest adding a R3 \| key and replacing the R4 \| with R4 <> (see GMK Navy (https://i.imgur.com/1VCgsS0.jpg) for an example).
Other than that, the comments from my previous post (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=106064.msg2924050#msg2924050) still apply.
Edit: Super minor thing: the Scroll key in the base kit render is the wrong profile.

So how will it work for EU customers who have to order from prototypist, will we have to pay import taxes once Brexit hits?

According to Jae, this shouldn't be an issue as long as the GB/transaction takes place before 2021. See this post (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=105650.msg2887229#msg2887229).

I'd love to see accent colors on the alice layout bars. Only having two accent keys would be bit sad imo, let me rep that pink!
-

Any updates on that kit update? :)
I hope to see a R1 petal novelty in there, allowing 65% users to fully outfit the right column with petal keys, and also allowing you to use a petal as an Esc novelty.

Looking at the picture in the OP, doesn't the base kit already have what you are asking about?

Those are shown on R2 in the kit image, so my guess would be no.

I'm not too sure if this can be done, but basically a whole secondary base kit of Inversed Pink on Navy, so basically Navy On Pink. I would at least love to see some NoP modifiers and numpad.
-
Love this shade of pink!

I am 100% in for this set...Only thing I would like to see added is the split space bars also in pink.
Beautiful set, can't wait for December!

The only thing I'd love to see in the kit would be a flower key to be 1.25u so it could be used as a super key on a typical layout.
