【IC】JTK Sin nen
« on: Thu, 19 March 2020, 01:02:42 »
Hello,
I bring you a new design "Sin nen". Here are the author's design ideas:

This set design is inspired by Japanese harmony. After referring to some pictures, I extracted my favorite harmony color from a kimono


The blue with lower saturation and the red with a darker hue can be said to be very Japanese
238082-1

Overall, I feel very satisfied. I tried to apply the following currently unique JTK triple shot keycaps. It seems that the color level is rich and the font has a sense of pattern.
Then the next step is novelty. When I look for it later, I find that this set of color matches another theme very well - the new year's festival in Japan. Cream white and red are also very common colors in Japanese ancient buildings
238084-2

So it's easy to find the direction of novelty. Fireworks, apple candy and the bird house of the shrine all take the new year as the theme, but carp flag is the representative of men's day. Cherry blossom is too common, and there is no specific theme. Moreover, the flowering time of cherry blossom is in April, which doesn't match the new year.

First of all, apple candy and bird house are still preserved, while the pattern of cherry blossom is deleted and replaced by the more new year theme elements - New Year's guard, accessories like amulet and purse; buckwheat noodles (TSU Yu), the new year's standard match, just like Chinese dumplings; Dharma tumbler, the mascot obtained in the temple, is regarded as "the letter to the gods"; paper pendants on the rope indicate the boundaries of sacred objects, and bless the new year's protection; there is also this fan... Nothing is good-looking... Carp flag, although not quite in line with the new year's theme, is very distinctive It's really a good-looking Japanese design, so I modified it a little and kept it

238086-3

238088-4

238090-5

238092-6

238094-7

Looks like the design is referring to Chinese culture rather than Japanese one. For the name, there is no exact word "sinnan" in Japanese (maybe not in Chinese also), but might be a good name for this mixture-of-culture thing?

Love the novelties but I feel like all the colors are a bit overpowering

Love this set, definitely would buy the base and mods. Been lurking on this set since it was originally posted, any update on a time frame for the group buy?
