(IC) GMK Aquarius Base Kit
« on: Wed, 02 June 2021, 13:15:50 »
Hello everyone! This is the GMK Aquarius, my first test renders for this keycap set.
Noticing the demand for these keycaps: https://kbdfans.com/products/enjoypbt-abs-doubleshot-mechanical-keyboard-keycaps-set-6

I decided to make a slightly more vibrant, (and better looking imo) version of these.

                                                                        If you want to give me feedback: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSddVANNeBMOXjOuP3Ktbb3JMhG4RjCH1TYs-kBKFeo3zxp8gg/viewform?usp=sf_link

So you're just trying to copy another colorway. Did you get their permission?

Uhm..... You copied another set, slapped another name on it, and posted it without any further work? Having felder renders/a set that is not fleshed out at all I understand but stealing someone else's colors? Come on, dude.

They are dif colors and was told they look similar to another set before I knew they existed lol. This is original I just didn't know there was something like this until this morning before I made this post.

So you knew it looked similar? Then don't post, your idea is basically a copy and not in the slightest ready, you basically have default dakota felder that probably took minutes to make this "base kit"

It’s a fine keycap set. If this came fleshed out w renders, some novs, reference colors chosen, well thought out kitting, and the like, it would probably make MOQ. What was bad was your effort.

Please do. Check out other peoples IC's and see what they have, and use that as an example. I recommend you join the Keycap Designer Discord as well: https://discord.gg/PTBEc6zw

Just look at any other IC to see that this is not how an IC is supposed to be made. Is it really this hard?

As another member mentioned I would look at joining the keycap designer discord channel to assist with building out your idea

Good set, but I wouldn't buy it if as a GMK set. Looks like some infinikey or a geekark set.
