Looks pretty good. Only criticism I would have, are the -, +, =, <, > symbols. They look out of place, like it's a different font size. Think it would look a lot more uniform if they matched with other symbols, similar to Varmilo.
You're the creative one here -- and doing a fabulous job!!
One nit pick, it seems like the + and = could be a bit more "oblique"...
Less this: = +
and more this: = +
or this: = +
Love the set regardless!
As nguyenhimself said, the weird symbols are meant to match the ones on the AEK. The *-_+=|\ / characters on the original aren't oblique (IDK why) so I've just been trying to match them.
...
The tiny "Alt" printing seems a bit too bold but still readable to me. I think you nailed the white pantone too.
What's the optimistic ETA for when the sample arrives at your door and the official GB opening?
...
I noticed the alt too. The alt in my files is pretty bold too, so I will tweak that to make the final one a little bit thinner.
The Pantone colour isn't even matched for these samples, this is just XDA's stock light grey colour
). Although it does look very close in the photos.
Samples should arrive here in around two weeks, I'll take some more photos and do some comparisons with my renders. I'll send some keys to Quaddepos to compare the dye sub quality with Canvas (he has Canvas, I don't). I'll probably make a few small tweaks to the legends based on the samples. After that I think I just need to organise all the details with the vendors and stuff. So optimistic timeline is maybe a month, pessimistic timeline is if the vendors/XDA are busy and I have to wait a while for other groupbuys to run first.
