145826-3

Here's a 3D render, thanks to Madēo !
145760-6

Here's some novelties:

145845-7145847-8

The color scheme is unique (yeah this time I checked on keypuller ;D ) and the color combo looks pretty good in my opinion !
I'm hesitating between witch profile should I go, and I can't make my mind on it, so here's a poll : http://goo.gl/WElJlZ

Let me know what you think about it  :thumb:

To-do list:
1. IC
2. Make child kits

3. Novelties
4. If IC good get pricing from SP

Thanks for your comment !
I replied to your PM  :D
By the way, the color are custom because I think that the KLE render colors doesn't exactly look like the real colors...
I'll probably order color ships from Signature Plastic to see by myself the exact colors, and if they don't match my expectation, I'll see if I could go for custom colors maybe?

Reminds me of a few kits from SA Valentine with the brown modifiers. Looks unique, just not my cup of tea.

Feel like the legends should be a little darker for visibility

Tweak the shades, add some silver, and you're on your way to a Rolex Daytona keyset.  :))

Had a little prob with attachment files  ;D

Chocolatier was indeed a chocolate based theme but I think these are pretty different!
Anyway, thanks to your advice, I made this original set  :)

I think I've got a set that meets those parameters somewhere in KLE.  I'll have to check when I'm at home - can't login to Github from work for whatever reason.

Pretty cool.. .have you thought about a uniform SA instead of a sculptured SA?  It would help to differentiate the keyset, IMO.

That exactly.  DZ looks really good in there, and it opens up the options for the kits to not have to be so large in order to satisfy the layouts.  As someone who tried to put Modern Selectric on a JD45, I'd really love this.

I think it covers up pretty much everything (if I forgot something, tell me!)
Oh and I forgot, here's the ISO/UK Kit

As noted, I had some old colorways I played with in KLE last year that worked with the Rolex watch a bit.  OP has things well covered but I mentioned I'd dig them up, here they are.

One with gray.



One without gray.

I like the gray one, but I don't know if it would work with the color that I choose (witch are lighter )...

For the readability, made the legend on the alpha one shade darker
146072-0 (thanks again to Madēo!)

Also thought about replacing the green of the modifiers to maybe some grey,blue or even a lighter/darker shade of brown?

Edit : here's another KLE render, with different colors, may correspond bit more to the theme 146088-1

I love the original colorway you suggested the most, mainly for the lavender on the alphas :D I just bought into chocolatier so I would be very down for the full row 3 just for difference sake  - love to be able to compare like that with two great looking chocolate sets!

This set is a BEAUT.
I was actually trying to find a color scheme like this the other day, but couldn't find the right blue.

In fact the blue is custom, it's why you wouldn't be able to find this one ;D
