Title: [GB] GMK Eclipse (CLOSED)
Post by: T0mb3ry on Wed, 03 April 2019, 14:52:08
Here we go again. GMK Eclipse is now available on Massdrop.
TO THE DROP PAGE (https://www.massdrop.com/buy/massdrop-x-t0mb3ry-gmk-eclipse-custom-keycap-set)
The drop will last 27 days.

As the name of this set tells the theme of this keyset is Eclipse. Eclipse is an well known astronomical event (no its not IDE based), thus the keyset has dark appearance. The lighter modifiers do symbolize the typical light on the edge of an astronomical body which takes part in the eclipse event.
For more information see GMK Eclipse interest check (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=99512.0).

Sheet with MOQ and pricing (will be updated as soon sheet on the drop page gets it updates.)

The previous Accent & Novelty kit was quite expensive and i decided to split this kit in its parts and make it more affordable that way.
Overall this is my attempt to provide more affordable set and if it fruits i will continue similar pattern in my future projects

Thanks for the interest and hopefully support ;)

The dark grey is GMK N9 stock color, right? Are the other colors stock or custom?

Getting this for sure considering it has a good price.

The dark grey is GMK N9 stock color, right? Are the other colors stock or custom?
If you look at the ICs you can find an answer to this. The light blue seems to be the same as Yuri, the dark blue is custom, the purple is DY, not sure about the orange but probably custom.

Yes the dark gray is N9 ;)

Indeed the light blue is from Yuri and the dark blue is new custom color. All other colors are stock GMK color palette.

I'm glad this set is getting a second chance. I drove to Oregon to watch the solar eclipse in August 2017. Totality is one of the coolest things I've ever witnessed. Anyway, I joined as soon as this went live.

As you can see the numbers are getting up slowly. I did not expected this set to go crazy and one also has to keep in mind all the GMK GB craze going lately. But that i expected is light blue accents doing better than other accents.

Are the legends on the light blue accent kit also N9, matching the dark gray of the base alphas?

Exactly. Thus you can actually use it with other sets with N9 color (depending on if the light blue matches the other set).

I got simple rule for when to use icon or icon + word modifiers. Very distinct contrast colors are getting only icon mods. Less contrast colors are getting icon + word modifiers. You can see that rule of mine applied in GMK Carbon R2 drop. Very conrasty Bone has only icon  mods where less contrasty Carbon (orange on gray) has icon + word mods.

In case of Eclipse of course the mods need to be icon + word. For only Icon the mods need to have color Yuri light blue on N9. But thats GMK Skydata.

Thanks. Obviously I missed the IC thread, but that's an unusual decision. Did you just like the look better!

Yes i like this color but its not the reason why i choosed to include it in the 40s kit. I included this color into the 40s kit for variety, because i could not offer both colors for the splitbars in spacebars kit, which would make the spacebar kit huge and more expensive. This way you have already needed split spacebars in 40s kit. But if you (as 40% user) want also gray split spacebars then you can get the spacebar kit additionally.

Also the spacebar kit got the gray split spacebars, because that gray color (N9) is used also in other sets like Dolch or Skidata. Maybe owners of those sets might be interested to get some split spacebars for theirs sets.

There are more strategic thoughts than preferences.

Yeah the base kit and the pale blue accents will probably hit their MOQ. And yes MD does help keysets to happen but it does not happen for every kit.

What are the chances of the base + all three accents getting made at this point?

Base will be made anyway (it will reach its MOQ and if not it will be very close). Tho i am not sure if all accents will be made. We'll get to know that after the drop ends.

The drop will end next day. So if you are interested or on the fence then this is probably the safest way to get GMK Eclipse by joining the drop now. As you can see the set will be produced in small numbers so there will be only few left others for the recap sale which minimizes the chance to get it afterwards.

New update for the MOQ/Pricing sheet.

Yeah i think numpad has also good chance. It might not reach the MOQ but its already so close that it has high chance to be made. Probably Orange accents too.

Tom, please make all accents kit live, really like the colors


It all depends how the kits can be sold afterwards in the recap sale. The reselling potential should be considered in this regard. And this is quite tricky with custom colors because you cant combine it with existing sets so well. Btw, the pale blue accents are good to combine with SKIDATA imo.

So 13 hours left and it looks very good imo. Looks like all the accent keys are probably getting made. Numpad made to MOQ and spacebars are looking good too. Pretty happy about the progress and i want to thank everyone who took and probably will take part in the drop in these last hours.

I ordered base + purple accents.  The purple accents did not reach MOQ but Massdrop charged me for them anyway, so either they're being made or Massdrop is ripping me off...

Since you are charged right as a buy ends and we go over numbers afterwards - to decide what makes sense to produce and in what quantities - you will always end up being charged for what you ordered. If we decide to cancel any kit(s), we will reach out to everyone affected (i.e. everyone who has said kit(s) in their order) and give the option to be partially refunded for the cancelled kit(s) or to have their order cancelled entirely.

Just got new samples from GMK for the base modifiers color.
Here is comparison of the first sample (left) and the new one (right). (pardon for the dust....)
(https://i.imgur.com/Msh3kjD.jpg)
The new sample is 10% lighter. The old one appears too dark IMO and it has also slight green touch. Anyway RAL 5000 is a violet blue color with slight milky touch. The new sample hits it on the nail for me.

Here are all the eclipse samples together.

By the way Ryan (/u/quaddepo) designed Eclipse tray.

It has some color banding but it will be fixed for production.

It is this light blue (see the base color of alphas).
