If you are struggling to understand the kitting, I have made a guide to help you better understand. It is broken down to show support for common boards!(by my standards)

As of now, I have been unable to reach Zfrontier, which has been an issue for a minute (its the reason it took 6 months to update the IC) with that being said
I have sent them the stuff needed for quotes, and they are known for coming in clutch last minute.
Incase, this is not one of those times I have already talked it out with my vendors, and they are all flexible to the possibility.
I will make sure I update here as soon as I hear something back. Since it is the Holidays as well HAPPY Holidays!!!
I hope you all stay safe and enjoy your time with your loved ones or whoever you may be with.
This has been a tough year for many, and I would like to give my condolences to anyone who lost anyone I lost an Uncle to Covid, so make sure you are staying safe. Anyways, I am super excited to share this with you and hope you enjoy!!!
Icon Mods Coming Soon!!!!!
06/06/2020: Hi quick update to fill you guys in. I have updated the colors but need to redo all the renders. That will be improvements from the last and will look amazing. All the colors are now color matched to Pantones and the production file v1 is almost done. Once I finish this I will do a major update with things like deskmats, Kittings, colors, and other goodies also hopefully I will have a sample of the novelty spacebar I bet many of you are excited about. Sorry for the radio silence for so long.

I have decided to use my Pantones as my basis for color, since the samples are taking so long and if any changes happen I will make sure to communicate that clearly as it happens. I would like to apologize for the lack of updating and the lack of being involved. I am truly excited for this set and I really can't wait to share it with you both kitting and updated renders will be posted by next Friday I hope.

10/12/2020 BIG UPDATE, here is the test spacebar samples (photos of it at least)
Note: When I ask for the spacebar 4 months ago, I was still refining my colors (I still am, just waiting to have the samples in hand) so that is why the space bar is Dark blue the point was too show that they could do a Nice reverse dye-sub. These photos are from Keyreative and ZFrontier. When doing the testing the original (thin lines on the right) they notice the colors didn't shows that well, so to bring out the color more they thickened the line width, but this also caused an issue to where not everything lines up but on the final version I will correct that. I am still waiting as they didn't ship yet due to past Chinese Holiday which just ended, so I am expecting to start getting stuff soon. After that I will update my renders, and release the official kitting( I do understand it seems kind of backwards to not have the kitting out when I originally decided to do it this way I was under the expectations the samples would only take a month so it would been fine. Other things also popped up IRL, and with that said I have not forgotten or given up on this set I am even more excited than I was before.)

To Do List:
-Feedback
-Better rendering
- Animation(still a work in progress)(may not happen)
- Deskmat post coming soon
Note: the profile is still up for change I just like DSA so that's how I rendered it but it up to y'all to decide so please do the survey as it helps the process
Note: for the ortho and 40% keyboard lover rendering coming soon
Note:NorDe is next on my list to make for this set
Note: some of you following this may have noticed the change in manufacturers that's because the space bar was not a realistic thing with signature plastic but keyreative has already done something similar with KAM WRAITH.
I'm back on the search for a manufacturer is you have contacts to any please pm me.

Solidify the theme. These colors don’t say 80s to me. It looks like a key set with a photo filter applied. Maybe “burnt in crt” or “overexposure”, “vhs machine ate my tape”?

@mustangjayyyme I'm glad you like it and @Christdl I'm 100% on keeping it Kam the result on the survey are in, but I was talking to the vendor about doing two profiles. If/and when we get a round two I will make that happen.DSA R2 *prays*

Yeah it was originally DSA but it couldn't do what I wanted. So, I moved to KAM so if R2 happens ill either do it in two different profiles or just one different. but glad to see you like itYes!!!!!!i

I must have popped into this thread an hour ago in hopes of updates. Can't wait!!! The blue looks a little more saturated than the renders, still my favourite keyset IC atm!
the previous render were washed by too much light as I am learning to do my IC, I am also learning to render.

Of course, sorry that it is taking me a while to update everytime I am ready there is one more thing I change. I just updated the color for hopefully the final time and redoing all my renders. Thank you fo your interest though, very appreciated!
Would you share the Pantone codes you decide to go with?
I will once everything is together I don't want to release everything in parts cause it will cause inconsistencies but I used formula Guide coated Pantone book.
Thanks!

Yeah it was originally DSA but it couldn't do what I wanted. So, I moved to KAM so if R2 happens ill either do it in two different profiles or just one different. but glad to see you like itI actually prefer KAM, but I’m curious what it is that DSA couldn’t do? The space bar maybe?
Speaking of, really interesting spacebar. I’d love to see more renders of it. Being an ortho user, it would be cool to see in 2u, though I assume interest wouldn’t be high enough.

Hi,
Yes the major reason why I didn't use DSA was because the spacebar and I think you will be excited to hear I plan on doing a 2u novelty spacebar so you can use it. There will be more and better renders of everything once I finish, and there might even be a sample of the spacebar with the design on it.

Just checking in on this. Would love to have it for my Disarray board—totally willing to wait until 1/21.
Its still happening I have finished kitting and such but I want to wait for the samples its just taking longer than expected and I totally love the disarray I think that or the Cyberboard would go really well with the set. I am glad to see that you like the set. I have some exciting collabs to announce as well!

Is grainy PBT (a la KAM wraith) confirmed over shiny PBT (a la KAM Starry Night) for this set? Real interested, just wanna know
It will be matte I got sample of both and I found I loathe glossy pbt because it makes my fingers sweat. I hope that what you were hoping for!
Post by: paperassgasket on Mon, 07 September 2020, 23:05:08
Perfect for a profile like SA or MT3 but KAM has more class than that and deserves better.

I vote for (as seen in other kits):
- Blank Ergo modifier addon kit (or novelty art modifiers, one can dream)
- 6 unique 1.25u's in novelty kit (for Redux I buy 2 kits for the needed 10x1.25u).
Novelty keys are more useful for variable layouts than modifiers with legends imo (followed closely by blanks...). Printed legends suitability is so niche on some sizes, it would be helpful to leverage that flexibility!
As the novelty kit is now, good symmetry cannot by achieved on a Redox without weird redundancy. The "Play," video camera, cell phone, and "Eject" art would be really useful as 1.25u too. Others have 6, why not this novelty kit? Thank you, I want.

Here is the colors I will be moving forward with:
Alpha keys - Pantone 2975 C is a light blue
Mod text - PANTONE 2036 C is pink
Mods keys/alpha text- PANTONE 4146 C is dark blue
Alt Alpha keys - PANTONE 4066 C is pink
Accent keys - PANTONE 267 C and PANTONE 667 C (this is the original accent in the current renders and since so many people like the set with it I will offer an accent kit, but not noveties)

Any chance you could add an extra Tab to the mod kit? Being able to fill a TKL + tsangan 60% with one mod kit and 2 alphas would be greatI can definitely make that happen although the kit does have physical coverage for two boards since it is a uniform profile.

I did notice that - just thinking it helps keep legends correct at a (hopefully) low additional cost. Great work on the set!

It may have already been suggested but, I don't like the size of the font on the alphas, they are too large compared to the MODS. The colourway is excellent but the large font makes it look slightly comic in my opinion.Hi,
This has been a concern of some, but this was a design choice that I made because I wanted to to feel older. I have reduced the alpha size by a lot and upped the mods quite a bit as well. Another factor is all the mod legends are based on a 1u key and because of that the mods have to be smaller. I hope this helps you understand the decision, although at this point I won't be making any more changes to the size since everything else is based of these sizes.
Thank you for your feedback!

Thanks Swishy for that. I am happy with the font size on the explanation given. The update to the extra MODS, spacebars, THOCK caps and even the opener means I will probably end up buying the whole damm lot. Really excellent work with the extras. Love it all.Glad it cleared things up!😁
Post by: Swishy on Thu, 10 December 2020, 23:37:06
1. some kit render the nav Icons didn't match the text nav clusters, also the 40s had a little artifact issue due to 4 caps being on top of one another. It should all be fixed now.
2. I also made a simple kitting guide for those possibly confused by the kitting ( which is more than none)
I would like to make this clear since some people are confused about this, all the kits cover what's in the photo meaning Phat Mods covers 60-65(tsangan and standard bottom row included and some extra keys). While the 60-65% mods cover only what's in the photos and would need a bottom row to cover a whole board and nav cluster for a 65%. The second route is intended to be a cheaper option for those who know what board they will be putting it on, if you have any uncertainty then just get Phat Mods. With this being said I would also like to go over another thing I see people seem confused about the spacebars being in the Alphas instead of the mods the reason for this is, I have three alpha colorways and I would be forced to sacrifice some color variation in order to save cost on the mods kit, if I didn't have three different color alphas I would have put the spacebars in mods like normal.

Wonderful set, I will definitely order a few kits. That being said, the only thing that I find that would be an improvement is if it would be easier to tie the light blue more together with the other colours. I am thinking dark blue keycaps with light blue legends for instance.That would be interesting, but with mizu talking up 3 colorways and KAT comet practically being that. I want to find a way for everything to be different from what has been done before.

I am rather new to MK but I really like this set and think about getting one for my Keychron K8 (TKL format). I'd go for the Alphas, Fn Row, Modifiers and the Norde layout, which should work?
I have seen this on other layouts as well, but what I am not seeing is the 3rd set of functions on some of the keys in the Norde layout. For example { is bound on the 7 key or the tilde sign between Enter and Ü in R3 when you press it with Alt GR, which is right to the spacebar.
I included a picture of what is printed typically/on standard keyboards (from the Keychron this case, but also ducky has the same prints on its 60% DUCKY ONE 2 Iso DE or cherry pbt international set from KPrepublic).
Is this standard for keycap sets to exlucde this (The KAT rust has the same layout as here) in order to not have too many keys or another reason?

Welcome to GH. Your question is legit, and its answer is that this set does not have tertiary legends—the ones you are missing—that for US ANSI do not apply, but for European layouts do. I prefer to have tertiary legends, but I can see the simplicity of the lack of them. Anyway, we already know where the AltGr legends are, hopefully. If you really need them, you may check other KAM sets in "interest-checks" that offers a Norde set with tertiary legends. Feel free to PM–me if you want to discuss this further.

Thank you very much for your answer.
I am using these keys very often - which is a pain already since you the AltGr position is not very convenient, but not having Ä,Ü,Ö is even less an option. I am familiar with their position, but was curious about the reasoning of it (also bc. some minors like the € sign on the E button or the µ sign on the M are not included, but I suppose that goes beyong the contraints)
I checked like the last half a year in the section and could only find the Napolenic kit with tertiary legends, otherwise the design choice seems more or less unilateral. Issue is, I wont be the sole user of the KB and some missing legends could be confusing, but my personal boss in the house will have to adapt I suppose :)

I included a picture of what is printed typically/on standard keyboards (from the Keychron this case, but also ducky has the same prints on its 60% DUCKY ONE 2 Iso DE or cherry pbt international set from KPrepublic).
Is this standard for keycap sets to exlucde this (The KAT rust has the same layout as here) in order to not have too many keys or another reason?

If my post is in the wrong place, please tell me where to post this otherwise, this is my first post.
Thanks for you help
Welcome to GH. Your question is legit, and its answer is that this set does not have tertiary legends—the ones you are missing—that for US ANSI do not apply, but for European layouts do. I prefer to have tertiary legends, but I can see the simplicity of the lack of them. Anyway, we already know where the AltGr legends are, hopefully. If you really need them, you may check other KAM sets in "interest-checks" that offers a Norde set with tertiary legends. Feel free to PM–me if you want to discuss this further.
Thank you very much for your answer.
I am using these keys very often - which is a pain already since you the AltGr position is not very convenient, but not having Ä,Ü,Ö is even less an option. I am familiar with their position, but was curious about the reasoning of it (also bc. some minors like the € sign on the E button or the µ sign on the M are not included, but I suppose that goes beyong the contraints)
I checked like the last half a year in the section and could only find the Napolenic kit with tertiary legends, otherwise the design choice seems more or less unilateral. Issue is, I wont be the sole user of the KB and some missing legends could be confusing, but my personal boss in the house will have to adapt I suppose :)
The ä, ö and ü are included in the norde+++ sets. Yet, there are other sets with full tertiary legends and broader coverage than this one. What language layout do you use?

I am using ISO-DE layout, but I was not very clear. In that a change to ANSI would be nicer for programming for example (and keycaps obviously), but I have to stick to ISO DE and most of the customs seem to offer the same coverage as this one, which is not perfect but good enough.
It is true if you are after a KAM set. But, there are a couple other ICs for non-KAM sets that carry full support for ISO-DE. Again, I think that this set rocks.

I'm on the GB site but i don't see the novelty space bar with the grid. Do I need to go to a different site for that item? Thanks.
should be this one, I'm guessing the wrong render was put in as a thumbnail but only swishy/M&C can confirm that

Thank you for update wiz new pic of novelty spacebars. That's awesome!So the would've been three MOQs and Thok and I felt that is a lot of risk so we reduced it down to two and since I saw more interest with the floppy disk we did both, but fret not the cap could still run in the future!
