apart from the similarities with Honeywell, Beta and more gray/white/red sets, here's my input:
- add accented R2 Esc (achieving physical coverage for bot accented and de-accented configurations) edit: meaningless observation which shows my inherent idiosincrasy with 40s
- pick a single color for the minibars. I see what you're doing by making the 2.25u bar WS32, but most alice/arisu layouts today offer a flexible layout and allow swapping the bars (I personally use a 2.75u on the left). set would look kinda goofy in that configuration. I'd rather have mod colored bars (heresy, I know), such as the OG board in the first picture, than this.
- coming from a WS2 fetishist who owns a good deal of WS2 sets: I'm not sure WS2/WS32 is gonna work with this colorway. it is a very cold, bright shade of white with blue-ish undertones, it's likely going to contrast a tad too much with the rest of the set. I wouldn't dismiss the idea of using a custom white.
- maybe it's just my monitor or again my skewed opinion, but I just opened up Bleached to check and I feel like WS32 should contrast more against GR1 in the board renders.
- consider adding mod front prints like the OG.
Firstly, thank you for your suggestions.
- While I understand there is the possibility of swapping Alice bars nowadays, going for both bars to be the same color would be bad for the set's theme. The board this set is themed on has two colored bars. Mod-Colored bars are just a no-no for me.
- I considered adding front prints, but I was not too fond of the result, it was way too busy.
- While WS32 in the renders might not be 100% accurate, compared to Bleached and Delta R2 for example, I feel it's quite accurate™.
I did a quick comparison between the three:
Don't want to start a war about who rendered it better or whatnot, It's just to prove my point.
