VOTE FOR THE COLORS in accent key.

You can choose multiple colors if you like. The least fav will be then removed from the accent kit.
Why must you make us choose  :'(

I love all the current colors but if it comes down to dropping one of them, burgundy looses for me. I still would rather have all three though. I know they were just added but I would rather drop the alternate f-keys.

Please definitely NOT this. I hate alternating F-keys and the addition of them to the accent kit allows me, and others like me, to get a uniform f-key row while still allowing those that like alternating f-key rows to do their thing.

As promissed here are accent mockups.

Violet

Burgundi

Light Blue


Probably this is that i am going to do. Note i mix here accents and thats also consideration to keep all the accents. Having more choices is always better than having none.


Keep in mind this is an multi choice poll and you can vote for all colors. Keep voting :)

I like the red/light blue if I HAVE to choose just cause it's more unique. But I'd rather have all 3 tbh.

Surprised burgundy is losing

I didn't vote until just now, but I thought violet was losing badly to begin with. I figured burgundy would win as the strongest contrast with the blue, but there are a lot of people here who love anything purple, so maybe it shouldn't be a surprise...

The answer is simple. The correct swedish layout has an euro sign on key 5.

Hmmmm i do have US Ansi layout keyboard and additionaly i use EuroKEY layout. This "ë" is my altgr + e and this "€" is my altgr + 5. Good to know ;)

Yeah i need to get price quotes pretty soon. Though i'd like people to receive Yuri, so they can see the light blue color which is used in Eclipse too. But yes October is the Month for Eclipse.

Just for the info (for people who are new or hear first time about GMK Eclipse) Eclipse will be available for purchase at candykeys.com.

You dont need to worry ;)

Yes this set uses two custom colors. One is light blue from Yuri and another is blueviolet (RAL 5000). I will get samples for the blueviolet color soonish.
ETA is this month ;)

Andddd it is finally here. The GB will be dropping tomorrow evening EU time.

Getting everything ready for it :) It does appear the MOQ demanded by Uniqey is 250 Sets. The pricing will be 135 EUR included MwSt. for EU-Union Customers and 113 EUR for World-Wide Customers. This is 132 USD for people not in the EU-Union for the Base Kit. Shipping is to be figured out yet for World-Wide customers, we want to give the best options. These prices are lower than some of the GBs running today, the reason the price is a bit higher is due to the custom colors used in this set.
 
Pack prices are also released tomorrow.

Feel free to use logo as banner, tho i wish i had time to make it better because it was done fast. Better alternatives are render or novelty picture.

Its not black but dark gray. Its the standard GMK color N9. N9 is approximately 90% of black. For example sets like skidata or modifers from dolch are using N9 color.

Other colors: light blue and blueviolet are custom colors. Light blue was used in Yuri already. For blueviolet (its rather blue) i will get samples soon.

Excellent. N9 is my favourite GMK color. 100% in for this.

I resized the logo to fit the picture requirements for the signature. The line is below in case anyone wants to use it. I don't know how to have the banner link to the GB page (once that goes up).

Edit: Figured it out.

Website updated now a bit, better overview of pricing. We have a custom cable coming for this set where you will get a code when purchasing to get it for 50% off the price.

Working on getting the GMK Eclipse Thread started in the GB section of Geekhack, unless Tomb3ry does it.

Updating the progress bars to be a bit better, nicer to look at and follow.

Otherwise, Thanks Guys!

Yep, showing the color codes. Always difficult to tell colors from renders alone.
