CALICO is a grey on white keycap set with orange accents, aptly coloured and themed after the calico cat swatch. 179 keys in base.
The set doesn't need some long description about what it's inspired by. I just love cats.
Kit renders. Thank you to dededecline for the kitting help in the 40s section. Thank you to Manu and nopunin10did for the ESFR kitting.
Thanks as well to hali, nopunin10did, and bub for previous kitting help in Evil AI which I have just used again for this occasion.More

the opportunity was a red laser dot and i am the cat that managed to take it.
Packaging Design
MW Calico's box features artwork of my friends' cats, top to bottom, left to right:
Turtle, Athena, Frisbee, Milo, Rafiki, Soybean, Flip, Bubbles, Katsu, Kona, Winnie, Henry, and Hennessey.
The collectible cat for the set is Dixie, courtesy of Alas.
What's decided:PBT dye-sub due to the colors of the novelties as well as lead times.
Side print and cat sublegends.
No dark modifiers.
Pre-order and in-stock sale.
UKISO, Ñ, and a wider 40s/ortho support is integrated to base kit.
This IC aims to collect data mainly for the following:Regional interest.

Changes that might be made:Thinking if I should still make a second deskmat. Hmmmge.
