-Welcome to the interest check for KAM Lucid-

Carrd Website

Interest Form

Inspired by the fashion style of Gothic Lolita, this set features dark and bright colors with a hint of red to complement it.
I decided to go with a lowercase font for added cuteness.
Show off your dark/cute gothic side with this keycap set!

Keyreative is the manufacturer for the set.

I assume for the alphas you're using the open-source lowercase alphas from DSA Berry Yogurt? So will the f-row and TKL nav cluster all be new molds? (unless there are existing molds for lowercase f-row and lowercase TKL nav cluster your renders are based on).

If they'll be new molds, I would super recommend making the font on the nav cluster all the same size.

Good point i completely looked over the nav cluster, I forgot to make it uniform. As for the font it should be the same as DSA Berry Yogurt

I hate the way the fkeys look. The lowercase 'f' next to a number just looks weird to me.

I'd also love to see a "10" key for XT layouts (you already have an extra "B" for wacky Alice layouts).
F Keys belong on the left.

Voted DSA for the lowercase legends, but really it depends on manu.

Instead of using the numpad "0", it would be nice to have a "10" since there are so many boards now with 2 columns on the left.

Oh, okay I think I could add that to the base kit or to the numpad.

Nice work! I'm not a big fan of DSA since I don't like lowercase letters- but I might consider this set as my first (and maybe only) DSA set :)

Please consider adding some other home keys to support alternative layouts.

A minimum of six keycaps are needed: non-homing F and J plus homing U, H, T, and N to cover Dvorak and Colemak. This covers seven other layouts
More
     Colemak DH
     ColemaQ
     Asset
     Workman
     Niro
     Norman
     QWPR
as well.

Here is a summary of how 33 previous uniform profile sets
More
     DSA 2077, Berry Yogurt, Coffee House, Encore, Granite, Hana, Legacy, Miami Dolch, PetriKeys, Royal, Scientific;
     KAM 80s After Dark, Bouquet, Command, Ghost, KAMistry, Lil Dragon, Little Pilot, Outline, Sewing Tin, Superuser, Wraith;
     MKB Legend;
     SA-R3 1976, Mizu, Nuclear Data;
     SLK Dessau;
     XDA Canvas, Canvas R2, Canvas R3, Godspeed, Oblique, Scrabble.
provided alternative homing support:

For 29 of 33, non-homing F and J were in the base or alphas kit.
Four of those 29 also had homing U, H, T, and N in the base or alphas kit.   

Some sets added other home keys for various reasons:
   E to support BÉPO and Neo layouts (11/33)
   E + I and S for middle finger homing on all layouts mentioned above except Neo (5/33)
   A to support the QGMLWY layout (8/33)
   D and K for QWERTY middle finger homing (3/33)

Perhaps to minimize kit count, SLK Dessau's homing U, H, T, and N were part of its International kit.

I forgot to mention that Colemak and some other layouts use 1.75u Backspace in place of CapsLock. This Backspace is usually in the Mods kit or a stand-alone Homing kit.

Some QWERTY users also replace CapsLock, but usually with Control or Function rather than Backspace. This replacement is often in the Mods kit.

Some feedback on the updated 40s kit:

  • I've never seen accent backspace, if that's not something you personally want then I wouldn't bother with it
  • the "Z" for QAZ should be 1.75u
  • Speaking of QAZ if there's room for it in the kit a ".>" in 1.5u would be nice (very optional though)
  • Since there's no separate ortho kit a second 1u shift would be nice
  • On the subject of ortho it frequently uses 2x2u bars and most people want them to match

Just saw the norde kit:

you need to have a look at the åäö. As you can see the circle/dot/dots are quite close to the letter. Right now it looks kinda like the key does a and if you hold shift you get a circle.
