[IC]GMK Singularity - approaching event horizon

[spingo]

...I really like the horizon kit so I think that should be in the base kit. I also think it'd be cool to see the alpha keys most immediately around the black hole (F T Y H B V) being even more stretched or manipulated to the point of being unrecognizable...

 I've changed the kitting to allow everyone to choose their default color instead of forcing someone to buy the solar color-way. I may increase the spaghettification. I've tried a lot of variants of alpha warping and this one has been pretty favored. We'll see if that changes.

I really like the idea of having alt kitting for different color options for the distorted legends. Would love to see something with some pink maybe.

No promises on pink, but I do love me some pink. Earlier iterations had pink. Sorry about that.

Update:
The Singularities kit didn't feel cohesive to the set. I liked some of the designs but it felt like a lot of bloat and I didn't like what it added to the set as a whole.
Consolidated Singularities kitting into the alpha sets to better fit the theme of the set and reduce costs.

Artisan designed by MVKB and produced by Salvun added.

Added list of current Vendors - still securing a US vendor.

I can't tell if this will look amazing on a split board, or it wont work at all. It might need a horizontal G; otherwise it wont look like the gravity well is between the boards, but on the left hand instead

Don't think I minded the solar kit as a base kit if it kept at least one way cheaper as a kit.

One thing that maybe missing is one more 1u alt to complement those lovely 1.5u supers.

ISO novelty will be nice too… maybe it could be mixed up a little with the extra space given

It kind of works.

honestly it works even better than on a non-ergo

Just noticed that 40s kit looks like it supports more than Van-style layout.
Doesn't it need an R2 1U backspace for the other keys to work?

There's a kitting expert I'll consult with. I don't know 40s too well but I finally want to get one. That cyberpunk quanchi IC is gorgeous!

Million dollar idea: split board where the G key is exploded into the center so that this set still works

[Ceyx]

Would like to see the whole "cluster" moved 1u to the right.
B pretty centerd on alphas, G as gravity center is fine on 60%'s I guess.
But on every 65% and above, it throws off symetry, just looks out of place because more keys on the right.

Found this on KBDFans and I absolutley loved it! Amazing work.

Is there be any hope for an international kit?

[spingo]

A lot depends on NK. This is my first set so I'm not 100 familiar with the intricacies of getting more sets added to the kit.
I'd LOVE to add an international kit but I have to wait for a while to find out what I can and can't add. NK has asked me to work with someone from their end but that doesn't take place until 2025.
