Title: [IC] JTK Vostok-1/Восток-1 Tripleshot
Post by: JT Keycaps on Sat, 14 September 2019, 13:14:12
JTK Восток-1 / Vostok-1 Tripleshot by Buger
[attachimg=1]

Vostok 1 was the first spaceflight of the Vostok programme and the first crewed spaceflight in history. The Vostok 3KA space capsule was launched from Baikonur Cosmodrome on April 12, 1961, with Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin aboard, making him the first human to cross into outer space. (wikipedia)

JTK Vostok-1 is a Tripleshot ABS keycap set with heavy Soviet Union influences.

Inspired by the Soviet Union's history and the fascination of the space and sci-fi, enabled by the tripleshot molds from JTK, Vostok-1 is born.

The set is a greenish teal based design with muddy low saturated red and yellow accents to recreate a cold industrial and militaristic look with signature red and yellow partisan colors.

Base layout:

Mods will be yellow on teal.

Two tone doubleshot alphas will be offered as an add-on for those who want cleaner looking alphas at a very competitive price

Novelties and accent designs:

A large collection of red and yellow accents keys with many novelty designs

Consider having the full number row + an extra tab key in the two tone alphas kit.

this allows you to fill an extra 60%/65%/tkl(if you also buy the novelty kit) board with the base + extra alphas

No sir, JTK always like to provide full set instead of several kits , in this way JTK can keep price as low as possible.

very pretty set, and the triple shot caps make it a premium. I love the care you took to design the custom icons. I wonder how expensive that is compared to double shot. Somehow I canimagine it fitting best on some retro beige beast like a Model F metal or an M. Basically some 122 key flagship board.

We have tried our best to keep the price as low as possbile. I believe that the price is always one of our core competitiveness

Back in a days , in 2007 i was  graduated as a aerospace enigneer, worked in severel aerospace facilities, visited some places, and keeping an aerospace spirit in my heart even today (now im in telecom).
I will not blame creator on letters,  strange font (even М in  "дорога в косПос"), and even on color matching.
I blame him, that he takes strong historical topic, representing big part of USSR ppl destiny, and not doing deep research.

In my opinion there should be Bright Red Orange color, like Jet Stream and Early space suits color.
There should be White, did u saw launch vehicle pics?
Why don't you get novieltis from real soviet graphic? Where's Sergey Korolev and others, why only Gagarin here?

Overall it looks really weird and nothing (colors, fonts, graphic) reminds you about real history.
Great topic - weak attempt.

Actually that story is not about military ...it's about scientists, many thousands factory workers, about childhood dreams and  collaboration. And usually there's no such colors as "Miltary Green" in aerospace technics then and now.

With regard to the question about the spirit of Soviet space exploration, you may want to consult the various colour stamps that were issues in commemoration of Vostok-1:

Globus panel on Vostok:

Then there's the most esoteric stuff:

(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9e/Alexey_Akindinov._Gagarin%27s_breakfast._2011-2012.jpg)

(That could be a popular colourway.)

Although the Soviet civilian space program may have been tied to its military component, that's not how it was portrayed publicly. It wasn't about the colour of the rocket or capsule, or generals turning ignition keys. It was about space, and Soviet red, and metal shining in the sun.

The colorway itself can be debated, and you are certainly welcome to produce what you envision yourself... There are many sides to this history and quite a few colors pop in mind, not just the propaganda leaflets that were issued at the time.

First of all, I would like to thank you for your attention to this issue. In fact, the space program is a product of the Cold War. Yuri Gagarin became a major when he returned to Earth. These are all history. And the space race between the Soviet Union and the United States inspired the creation of Star Wars. Why is it not the interstellar exploration, but the war? I am not a person who advocates war. I just create on the basis of history. I don't want to avoid and beautify it deliberately. History always brings regrets and achievements, does it? For more detailed instructions.Also, please continue to discuss the shortcomings of the design. Thank you.

With regard to the question about the spirit of Soviet space exploration, you may want to consult the various colour stamps that were issues in commemoration of Vostok-1:
Although the Soviet civilian space program may have been tied to its military component, that's not how it was portrayed publicly. It wasn't about the colour of the rocket or capsule, or generals turning ignition keys. It was about space, and Soviet red, and metal shining in the sun.
Thank you! But, as you said, this is a propaganda product issued by the Soviet Union, so I think more about the background of the times, the price paid by all participants, is it just about the space dream? Why should we rush into space after the two world war? You know.

This is ****. Not soviet colors, bad icons, there is nothing from real USSR aerospace exploration spirit.
You should elaborate your comment. Whatever you meant with the asterisks, a proposal would be much better, instead of it.
Back in a days , in 2007 i was  graduated as a aerospace enigneer, worked in severel aerospace facilities, visited some places, and keeping an aerospace spirit in my heart even today (now im in telecom).
I will not blame creator on letters,  strange font (even М in  "дорога в косПос"), and even on color matching.
I blame him, that he takes strong historical topic, representing big part of USSR ppl destiny, and not doing deep research.

In my opinion there should be Bright Red Orange color, like Jet Stream and Early space suits color.
There should be White, did u saw launch vehicle pics?
Why don't you get novieltis from real soviet graphic? Where's Sergey Korolev and others, why only Gagarin here?

Overall it looks really weird and nothing (colors, fonts, graphic) reminds you about real history.
Great topic - weak attempt.
Not a bad idea, but it might look too much like GMK Yuri with orange and white.

This is more muted, the colors are slightly odd but do suggest faded pamphlets and rusting machinery.

Well the colors match the early Vostok launchers and spaceships. The Lego set has similar colors too.
