Title: [IC] DSA Night Sky - The Beauty Of The Night
Post by: janglad on Fri, 09 June 2017, 17:01:28
Hi!

I am proud to present you DSA Night Sky, a set inspired by the beauty of the night! I actually teased this set a while ago  (https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/5rl5mz/a_sneak_peak_of_two_things_i_have_been_working_on/?utm_content=comments&utm_medium=user&utm_source=reddit&utm_name=frontpage) and recently posted it again on Reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/6fdvz1/dsa_night_sky_feedback_round_2/?utm_content=comments&utm_medium=user&utm_source=reddit&utm_name=frontpage) both with pleasantly surprising feedback, so I'm stoked for the future of this set!

 Please fill in this Google form, it is super helpful. Thank you! (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfdhb7__vgEc4BTzs7QAx9llq_pW6NJ0BRWlV3ucYeMI3eCjA/viewform)

This is the kit design I currently have, I have added some kits since the last time I have published about this set:

Now, there still are some obvious things to be done:

Good suggestions by other users:
Overall I would love some more feedback. Do you really want a certain kit? Do you want to see a tweak to the colours? Are you excited for the set? Did I make a very obvious mistake? Let me know :D

Anyways, I'm extremely excited to work on a solid DSA GB, since the profile is so underrepresented in comparison to SA and GMK but is actually pretty damn nice! For real, try it on Topre or clicky's, you'll be surprised :D

Love it. Definitely on board if it drops at the right time.

Couple of things I'd consider changing:
Signed up to the mailing list, so lets hope this keyset happens!

This is nice! The color tone is like danger zone. Looks pleasant to my eye

While I don't really like DSA, I really like the colors. I'd be excited to see this with icon mods.

Would it be possible for this set to have convex keycaps like some recent GMK sets?

I love this set. This will work perfect for the custom keyboard that I am building. (It's a planck but 2u wider) I just wish that there was a yellow 2u space set for the planck kit. Everything will work just fine though.

Your wish is my demand, this will be added!

You mean for the spacebars? I will look at this but I don't think SP has spacebar for DSA except for 6, 6.25 and 7u at the moment. I agree this would be very nice though!

An icon kit is on my list, since I loved the icon mods on Granite. Will be a bit difficult MOQ wise though since there would need to be 2 of every mod kit.

I feel like it needs a touch of purple or something, just some really subtle bits to make it feel more varied ... IMO :)

Cool set, like the kits, though would add a 'delete' to the planck kit.
As for novelties: how about a solar system, a galaxy, and of course a telescope?
