[url=https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=119535.0][img width=314 height=120]https://imgur.com/kR9Jxjh.png[/img][/url]Nice design. I’d also be interested in a child kit that offers Latin alphas with no sub legends.
This could turn out even better than Perestroika.

In fact If the designer also offers a Cyrillic alphas child kit, that would be the most boss-ass, killer move. I’d love that personally and wholeheartedly support it.
If we do that, I feel like we will have serious problems, and It doesnt match the themeThis could turn out even better than Perestroika.

After another look at the ESFR kit, I noticed a couple more oddities:ESFR is a kit that needs more than one community to reach GMK MOQ, thats why we make them together. On the other hand, the render is wrong and will be changed today.
- R2 E is identical to the key in the base kit and seems to be an unnecesary duplication.
- R3 W seems to be entirely unnecesary (it's already on R4 in the kit, as the fr-FR layout requires).
- R4 M should be moved up to R3 (same reason).
See https://www.farah.cl/Keyboardery/Interactive-Comparator-of-Different-National-Layouts/?left=esES&right=frFR (https://www.farah.cl/Keyboardery/Interactive-Comparator-of-Different-National-Layouts/?left=esES&right=frFR).
Other than the AltGr keys, no keys are shared between the (es-)ES and the (fr-)FR subkits. Is it necessary to offer those two together, or could they be separated into their own kits? (perhaps even making es-ES+es-LA and fr-FR and fr-BE kits)
ESFR kit updated.
Solved!ESFR kit updated.
If I'm not mistaken the R4 "<>" key is already in the base kit.
I'm joining the GB regardless, but I'd really appreciate if some more keys could be added to the spacebar kit, considering I'll have to pay for the child kit just to use the set on an Alice board. I'd add another 2u and maybe a 6u off-centered spacebar, like Polybius did, or add 2.25u and 2.75u spacebars to the base kit.
That's literally my only complaint, I absolutely love the color and the theme behind the set!
Does this mean no wuque pbt blot? Was hoping to get a set in the next few months not 2 years and changeTf is a wuque?

not sure to take this keycap set seriously when you clearly show no regard for other designer's original work. would probably be a good idea to at least take down photos/sales posts of clone gmk sets before selling your own...MoreShow Image(https://i.imgur.com/1Ph2Hl6.jpg)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/3UadyJM.jpg)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/wWqYazz.jpg)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/hGCQh4W.jpg)

not sure to take this keycap set seriously when you clearly show no regard for other designer's original work. would probably be a good idea to at least take down photos/sales posts of clone gmk sets before selling your own...Hi Ankit, it's very nice to see one of your posts here. Before I became a designer and worked for Eloquentclicks, I used to build keycaps for people who could only spend a limited amount of money on their keycaps. These people would ask me to build keyboards with different keycaps, including clones, which I would tell them what they were and why they were considered clones. That said, I don't regret my past at all, I was dedicated to give people with few resources keyboards with the keys they liked, being these same people who would never buy an expensive set. I myself, as an individual person, do not defend clones, but, in my personal case, if someone buys one of the sets in which I have participated as a clone because he has lost the GB and extras period or because he cannot afford it, I am not going to criticize him or expose him publicly. Although I know that you already have experience in that of exposing and bulling publicly.MoreShow Image(https://i.imgur.com/1Ph2Hl6.jpg)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/3UadyJM.jpg)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/wWqYazz.jpg)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/hGCQh4W.jpg)

The hypocrisy is heinous. This dude claims he doesn’t defend clones, which in a way is true as he endorses them and profits off sell them.That's literally a meme I made for fun about how after covid Im working on making keycaps and working for a vendor, It's not anyone else or having fun about any other person aside of myself.
He claims he’s a “designer” now but on his non-keyboard Twitter constantly mocks the artistic integrity of keyset designers, inferring they are simply changing/picking colors.
Community is based on respect, for which this guy clearly has absolutely none. Conduct all the business you want but pretending to care is as disrespectful as it gets. I for one, would be ashamed to have you drag my company’s name through the mud with such childish behaviour on this platform. Shame to see a vendor’s reputation damaged by someone who can’t control themselves or their blatant lies.Show Image(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/825703646431150112/1077573684543365202/AovtCxhvscKk.png)

a whopping 3 of the novelty designs are original

Well, it looks like they deleted their Instagram account!

Out of curiosity, if the rest are not original, where are they copied from?
Most certainly not from GMK Norse Novelties, seeing as there's not a singular novelty from that set present in the Blot novelties.
Still you gotta ask yourself, who you're giving money to.we might as well stop buying keycaps entirely then.
If I had a nickle for every time someone said "Hey you gotta consider who you're giving your money to." and someone replied with "Well then I might as well just not 'X'"...you'd have one nickel
Come on man add that Cyrillic alphas set, viva la revolucionThen it's literally just perestroika lol

Might be showing my ignorance, but as a Berserk fan, I was really excited to see the Brand of Sacrifice novelty. Is that an issue because they didn't go through the proper channels to license it? RIP Miura.

engrave a weeb symbol on a $800 TKL and no one bats an eye
slap the very same symbol on an ISO enter and everyone loses their minds

This set of keycaps is so beautiful, I would like it better if the big keys were English instead of icon.
I've just realized there's no 40s kit, you may want to consider adding an "obscure" kit, as 40s is a big community that I think you shouldn't ignore.
Either that or add 3-key compat to the base kit.

it is different shade of red, does perestroika IP covers every shade of red?
No, they don't have an IP on every shade of red, but it's similar enough a shade of red that adding cyrillic legends would basically make it discount perestroika. There's nothing that makes perestroika inherently unique as you say, but it's the combination of the Maroon red, the Cyrillic legends and the icon mods that make it what it is. This set with cyrilic legends would be extremely similar.Come on man add that Cyrillic alphas set, viva la revolucionThen it's literally just perestroika lol

salient point. when i saw there color difference, i asked myself the question: what is it about perestroika design that is unique? and the answer is that its actually the generic GMK doubleshot set with icon mods andi am not even sure that the a designer can have IP on Cyrillic alphas or on a pantone.

My bruh do you think I have the kind of money to spend on perestroika?

spoke like someone with bunch of sealed perestroika ready to scalp
Can’t wait to see artisan collars. A splash of this red would look sickkk!
RNDKBD said on their Discord that they are pulling out as the Canadian vendor. Are there any other Canadian vendors lined up?
Hey don't be dissing RNDKBD, my man does a good job.RNDKBD said on their Discord that they are pulling out as the Canadian vendor. Are there any other Canadian vendors lined up?
Nice. Now Canadian fans of the set can get a good vendor.
I see a duplicate Ñ in base and ESFR kit?Solved!
I'd love 2x 1.5U Super (and extra 1u Alt) for HHKB and Mac somewhere though.
RNDKBD said on their Discord that they are pulling out as the Canadian vendor. Are there any other Canadian vendors lined up?Yes! Ashkeebs is on board now :D
Where can I get that Bowl Runestone XT. That board is so sickWe don't know it yet but we are working on it
GB Starts today!Is the GB thread already up?, thanks!
Hi! Which vendor is showing the ''ñ'' in the base kit? about the GB post, we are waiting for the approval ;)GB Starts today!Is the GB thread already up?, thanks!
EDIT: Seems like the pictures are not the same for all vendors, I see some of them showing a "Ñ" key, while others don't.
Hi! Which vendor is showing the ''ñ'' in the base kit? about the GB post, we are waiting for the approval ;)Not in the Base but one of the Child Kits: AshKeebs lists a kit named "ESFR" wich has an "Ñ" on it, while Mekibo doesn't have that kit listed. On the other hand, Mekibo has an "Outsiders" kit while AshKeebs does not, probably AshKeebs listing shows that kit as "Alt Alphas" but I'm unsure since the corresponding image does not loads.
did GMK sent actual color samples? there are so many GMK sets with poor color matching shipping lately, don't really want to join that listYeah I second this, GMK Nord was hilarious, if not awful for the backers, if this joins the ranks...
