Almost the same as Tai Hao Bumblebee:

Very nice!

Would icon mods instead of text mods be more fitting for this theme?

Yes, it is certainly similar.  I thought the yellow was a bit warmer (orange-er) than the Tai Hao set, but then I looked at the GMK colors and it is actually the coolest yellow they offer.  Would you maybe consider N6 or CV for the yellow to make it more distinct from the Tai Hao set.  The render really looks close to CV. 

It will be nice to have a yellow/black set that covers more boards than the Tai Hao offers though.

[RELLIK]

Shame GMK doesnt have centered legends, IMO its crucial to inspiration 

[JDragon]

I think this would look good with all yellow on black keys, with a more muted yellow (N6?). It looks too bright and busy right now imo compared to the signs.

[shower_king]

1, about the yellow , i agree with reececonrad and JDragon to some extent, The GE1 yellow seems cooler than the other two yellows
Especailly seeing from the color card of GMK


However, seeing from the color keycaps from GMK, i have changed my mind.


The GE1 yellow is more charmingful than i expected in the real ones.

 )

[shower_king]

Thus i would choose GE1 for first choose and CV yellow would be the second one. .N6 yellow is darker in real keycap and would be ruled out, since the darker yellow don't meet my theme.





Now i give everyone a more clear comparison among the three yellows.

[shower_king]

2. about 3D renders, this one is done by my friend, Zack. He has little experience on this. He would make improvement on this.
I also hope invite hoq or  Zambumon to help me do more better renders after i finalize the color and layout and novelties. Of course, i will post the GMK'S renders as well at last.

[pixelpusher]

I don't like N6 now that I see the comparison.  It looks like dried mustard.  I really like GE1 seeing them all together.  It is soothing, like you said.  CV is a good choice as well, though.

[katushkin]

Holy moly that's a bright keyset

No.  It's almost the same as the KeyPop Bumblebee set.  Tai Hao just rips off popular colors and set ideas for the most part.  Don't give them the credit for the set.

Interested very nice set when this will be out?

That's interesting. I forget about keypop.  I've only been into the mech community for a couple of years and ever since I've been on the scene, keypop has only had novelties to offer.  I always liked the sets on their website but I wasn't aware they were keypop original designs.  Were they made by SP?

I personally think it looks boring.

Always makes me laugh.



Less boring, but boring nonetheless.

Totally different, but better

Faded looking Triumph Adler like it should have been


Faded Beige. Probably blue legends bad choice.

[roostrc0gburn]

This set would look interesting with icon mods. Text mods make this look too plain imo

I agree. I think the fact that the inspiration is iconography/signs pretty much demands icon mods.
I'd be interested with icon mods.

[shower_king]

thank you for Acerk's remind.
i want to retain the GE1 , so i have exchanged the alpha base colors with modifier base colors.

thank you , i get it. i will give a comparison between alpha with yellow base color and alpha with black base color.

[shower_king]

a little update on comparison of three different yellows as Num base color.

[shower_king]

hi dude, which one would you like best among three yellows?
 i will update another comparison between black base color of alpha and yellow base color(base above choice) of alpha.

[shower_king]

About three yellows, they are common yellows on GMK color card not customized colors. They just need 150 MOQ not 250, which is easy to reach.

i think the CV in the middle looks the best, still considering between cv and n6 but the n6 is a little to dark, is it possible to make some more renders?

So far i think the CV in the middle looks the best, all of your Gmk sets are really interesting (this and photo studio) i've been waiting for so long for these 2 sets, definitely will join when GB starts

[shower_king]

First many thanks to hoq,
then post 60% 3D renders by hoq.

[shower_king]

also 80% renders made by hoq

Not sure why it wasn't mentioned in this thread, at least that I could see, but the group buy for this is already running?

Wow!  Yeah i guess he forgot to make a GB thread?  Last day is may 20th!!

[switchnollie]

Looks nice, I like black on yellow

[OracleKev]

Are all keys doubleshot or some printered?

[Skull_Angel]

Are all keys doubleshot or some printered?

From GMK? Double-shot ABS, good stuff.

[OracleKev]

I'm asking if *all* keys are doubleshot.
Never mind, it looks like the plug was pulled on this group buy.  Bummer.
