[IC] KAM Popelka | New Kits! - French/Belgian & Spanish/Italian

[Michabc]

Hey everyone,

I'm proud to introduce my first set! KAM Popelka is based on the Czechoslovak/East German fairy-tale film "Three Wishes for Cinderella" ("Tři oříšky pro Popelku"/"Drei Haselnüße für Aschenbrödel") from 1973.

A perennial favourite on television throughout Europe in this version Cinderella is more in control of her fate. In disguise she plays with the prince - bests him in archery and teases him with riddles at their various encounters.

If you want to catch it - it will start showing in German speaking countries from this Sunday: https://www.dreihaselnuessefueraschenbroedel.de/tv-und-termine-3hfa-remake/ including a Norwegian remake that will premiere at Christmas.

The correctly translated title is "Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella' - in the story each hazelnut grants her a wish for a specific disguise / outfit. These three outfits inspired the colourways of this set:
 - The first a hunters’ garb which she wears to beat the prince in archery. 
 - The second a ball gown with veil which she wears to the ubiquitous ball and further wows the prince.
 - The third and final is her wedding dress...

It's great to see there will be a homing kit.  Please consider adding middle finger homing for QWERTY.

2u zero keys in Numpad need to have the 0 legend, not the 00.

Love seeing a set with such unique inspiration! And now I want to watch the movie, too. I love fairy tales and the film seems like fun!

Thank you!

Do watch a perfect December treat ; ) In a lot of regions it's a bit hard to get a hold off... 
The streaming options are slim outside of north-eastern Europe: https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/tri-orisky-pro-popelku

But it seems Apple has available in the US at least: https://tv.apple.com/us/movie/three-wishes-for-cinderella/umc.cmc.1wcwyh2s9y2pd9vul5gv1guc0?at=1000l3V2&ct=effeteHalicore&playableId=tvs.sbd.9001%3A1469841576
(or have a look around YouTube...)

Have fun watching!

I just wanna say that this is a beautiful idea with a very unique execution using the three different sets of modifiers to model her three different outfits. I hope this does well.
