I like it! It's simple and utilitarian. Strongly considering this in lieu of other options I've seen to date.

evorus5 · « **Reply #101 on:** Wed, 10 July 2019, 18:35:57 »

Ill pick up a set if its gb!

crosscutgymnast · « **Reply #102 on:** Thu, 11 July 2019, 15:42:19 »

I’ll make sure to grab one of these.

I love it. I'm in if this reaches GB.

DarkMio · « **Reply #104 on:** Mon, 15 July 2019, 08:41:47 »

I'm very much interested. Seems to go very well with any board.

Darthbaggins · « **Reply #105 on:** Tue, 16 July 2019, 08:37:27 »

Definitely interested in this set, so many variants can be made with mixing with other kits

ostepoppbf · « **Reply #106 on:** Wed, 17 July 2019, 16:05:37 »

I'm in if there will be a NorDe kit

MxDuder · « **Reply #107 on:** Wed, 17 July 2019, 16:11:55 »

Oh man, I like this.

Banzai · « **Reply #108 on:** Wed, 17 July 2019, 16:13:00 »

I've been looking for a set exactly like this for my SKB75 I've got on the way. Instabuy from me if it goes live. I also agree the alphas and mods shouldn't be split up.

Filled out the form. Hopefully this gets to GB

roostrc0gburn · « **Reply #113 on:** Fri, 16 August 2019, 11:14:44 »

well, i guess i should get my butt in gear for this. here is a little bump for visibility

- PLEASE - go fill out the interest check form if you have not already. thanks to everyone who has already done so! feedback has been overwhelmingly positive so far, with only a few people interested in more keycaps that are not currently in sets. hopefully i can get some better renders and make a real update in the next week or two

roostrc0gburn · « **Reply #114 on:** Fri, 23 August 2019, 12:49:50 »

update: i have updated the kits a little and got pricing from GMK. please review and provide your feedback, if the caps you need are not in the non-standard kit. i know there are lots of different layouts that require non-standard caps, so if i missed one please let me know

there were also one or two people asking for norde to be included. i would happily include that in the iso kit, except i dont know what caps should be included in norde

kidpid · « **Reply #115 on:** Fri, 23 August 2019, 12:53:58 »

Was pricing meant to be added to the main post? I don't see it.

I will have vendor pricing in the GB thread when we get that far. for now, i have received pricing from GMK for the kits shown in op - just so i have a better idea of what the costs are and what could be adjusted

rionlion100 · « **Reply #117 on:** Fri, 23 August 2019, 20:47:41 »

I'm willing to try GMK for this, always loved Black on grey sets!

Want it, need it. Have you got a newsletter I can sign up to for the GB?

t0rk · « **Reply #120 on:** Thu, 29 August 2019, 10:00:01 »

Would definitely be in favor of splitting out the num-pad, but not for breaking up the alphas and mods.

Would like to see spacebars added for Alice compatibility. This set would look incredible on a POM Alice.

i would need some help adding a norde kit. any examples of sets that have done it well?

Zombo · « **Reply #122 on:** Thu, 05 September 2019, 14:04:45 »

This set would look soooo good on the Blood Orange Singa V3 I just picked up!

updates?

bobdenard · « **Reply #124 on:** Sun, 08 September 2019, 05:04:08 »

This set looks like a no brainer, too bad it’s taking its sweet time

SuddenlyDonkey · « **Reply #125 on:** Sun, 08 September 2019, 09:52:59 »

This set is a no brainier for a lot of us.

Personally, I'd like to see the kits broken down with options to purchase just the alphas, a space bar kit, a katakana kit, a micon kit etc..

Robosculpts · « **Reply #126 on:** Sun, 08 September 2019, 09:54:15 »

I'm in! Be cool if there is a stepped control for hhkb.

roostrc0gburn · « **Reply #127 on:** Sun, 08 September 2019, 20:24:36 »

hey everyone, working on getting some better color-accurate renders for the sets. should have those in this next week.

I'm also working with vendors, so hopefully we will be able to take off with this shortly

kidpid · « **Reply #128 on:** Sun, 08 September 2019, 22:14:21 »

Could we do a regular Alt key rather than an Alt Gr key?

ymaaan · « **Reply #129 on:** Sun, 08 September 2019, 23:56:45 »

Is there already an estimated date and price for this set? Looks like it's one of those must-haves set (for me).

victorpre · « **Reply #130 on:** Mon, 09 September 2019, 02:41:44 »

Need it

roostrc0gburn · « **Reply #131 on:** Mon, 16 September 2019, 19:35:23 »

this was always the plan - base kit with text only mods, like oblivion, and icon kit with yuri icons.

it's the age-old argument of icons vs text vs text + icon mods. everyone has their own preference but, from the feedback i received and what i have heard on the various forums and platforms over the years, it seems like the icon fans are the slight minority. i personally prefer icon only mods, so i wanted to at least provide a kit for that option. the only version not available is the old-fashioned icon + text mods, which you could get in a cheap pbt set if you prefer..

roostrc0gburn · « **Reply #140 on:** Sat, 28 September 2019, 23:43:49 »

small update for this weekend - not much to report other than the wheels are in motion and more info will be available soon.

i am working with a couple different artists to create a banderole for the box, forum signature banners, and a couple more renders for vendors and such. we have updated pricing from GMK, so we will be working to put together the costs of the kits for group buy. feedback looks great, and i am excited to get this group buy going. there are so many great sets coming out lately, that we will just have to be patient and wait our turn

big things coming soon!!

The Rhymenocerus · « **Reply #141 on:** Sun, 29 September 2019, 18:20:09 »

Super excited for this!

Roostr, If you're still taking render suggestions, I'd love to see GMK Dark alphas with WOB mods.

theasian · « **Reply #142 on:** Mon, 30 September 2019, 17:32:27 »

Definitely a fan. Any chance of getting a windowed Num Lock for the Num Pad Kit? Thanks!

roostrc0gburn · « **Reply #143 on:** Mon, 07 October 2019, 11:53:08 »

hey everyone, we have some more small updates. we have a signature banner! here is the code if you would like to add it to your signature:

also, i have updated the kit renders. thanks to jebbra for some fantastic work on adding row numbers and cap sizes. (see op) we are also working on completing the banderole, which i am hoping you will all love!
more renders are on the way, and let me know if there is anything else you all need or want to see!

Butterbeer · « **Reply #144 on:** Wed, 09 October 2019, 00:54:46 »

Great Looking Set!

Suggestion/Observation:

- The "Pg Up" Row 3 and "Pg Dn" Row 4 keys are not shown in the base kit, however, they are shown in the Skidata Accents Render, see below. Were these removed from all kits?

sorry for the confusion, but those were some of the first renders i did using pngu's free render service. the website doesnt allow you to adjust those types of variables, so the renders of GMK Dark with other GMK sets is just to showcase how GMK Dark will compliment other existing GMK sets that you may already have.

there will be possibly one more VERY SLIGHT modification before gb, and these caps are on my priority list. of course, i'm considering the additional cost and which kit these could go in, and i cant promise anything at this point... but it is on my radar

SBN · « **Reply #148 on:** Sat, 12 October 2019, 05:35:59 »

So glad I stumbled on this! The colorway is exactly what I searched for.

Would love a F13 for TGR Jane v2 CE for the full stealth build, but I'm probably too late for input and in anyway
