Re: legends. Consider changing your 'Win' legend to 'Code' or 'Super' instead.Second this. It would be in line with other ePBT sets and make the set usable for users on Mac or Linux, not only Windows.
Where is the Korean sublegend ?Just added one! :]

This looks beautiful. To be honest, I much prefer ePBT (PBT, not ABS) to GMK - for me, the quality is better, I love the smooth LASTING texture and sharp legends (that can be custom for cheap!). Typing this on ePBT Extended 2048 that I absolutely love.I am currently in the works on a 40's/ortho kit at the moment just have to wait a little longer, sorry! :]
I haven't seen a reverse dye-sublimated set from ePBT in person yet though.
I would be all over this as I really like gradient sets and the colours of this one are so smooth. But it looks like there won't be an Ortho/40s kit which is sadly most probably a deal-breaker for me...
I really like the pastel rainbow gradient, and will be interested to see this as an ePBT set. Fitting name too.
If there is one thing I would suggest. Some of your novelties are too large/close to the edge of the border of the keycaps. You should make them smaller so there is more room to breathe around the edges. Also some of the novelties, I'm not feeling, especially the generic looking space ones, since they're more space theme, then actually cute/dream-like. Personally I'd cull/change some, but that's your choice in the end.
Really cute simple desk mats too. Tell your friend that they did a great job executing that.
I did also wonder about legend contrast/legibility, but ultimately I can touch-type, so it's not a big deal for me.
Re: legends. Consider changing your 'Win' legend to 'Code' or 'Super' instead. Also think about the other legends you've chosen:
prt scr to print, scroll lock to scroll, and num lock to num, also your Pg Up and Pg Dn legends are inconsistent with some having space between the two words.
All the best, and glad to see you've made it from reddit concept post to IC :)
You may want to check the base kit — both "ISO" alphas are missing (pink R4 <> and white R3 \| ).
Also, there seems to be no need for two R4 1U Ctrl and R4 1U Alt keys, given that there are colored versions of them as well.
Add NORDE and count me in :)
That set is going to look great on my E-white TKL
[mention]tsoiab10 [/mention] I like this set! I only use 40% to 50% MKBs, any plans to offer a mod kit specific to 40%-60% MKBs?I apologize for the slow updates, but yes it is currently in the works :]

EPBT not good and also. . . . . gradient? :DNot a set for you, apparently ;-)
really nice colors and deskmat, but i would need a french kit to be able to gift it to the person i want to (as answered in the form) and i do not really understand the inclusion of a numpad kit with the numpad in the base kit
edit: just looked at the 1st post renders and there is no numpad in the base kit there while there is in the IC, so which is correct? because if there is not my IC form answer is wrong...
serve me well, the one time i make an exception to reading the whole thread before posting i miss important information... thanks for the inforeally nice colors and deskmat, but i would need a french kit to be able to gift it to the person i want to (as answered in the form) and i do not really understand the inclusion of a numpad kit with the numpad in the base kit

Have a look at the second post, which is the update. From the feedback received in the googleform, they re-rendered and made changes to the kits. Numpad was taken out, and made seperate.
Super cute colors! Totally in! Would really really love seeing a render of this with a rose gold case if that's possible too ^^I will definitly work towords more renders of different boards in different colors, might take me a little bit though. Apologies!

updates are looking good! one thing I see missing is the light ~ key for split backspace. I see it in one of the renders but not in the base kit laid out.I forgot to put it sorry about that!
There's still no news on a GMK set I was supposed to get back in maybe July, so I'm pretty happy this isn't GMK, because who knows when they'll get back to normal lead times.
Also, I'm sure my wallet will be happier about the price!
These are so cute! I'm especially happy with the R4 novelties that will fit a lot of different boards and all be cute and the stepped control. I'm a guaranteed buyer for this!
EXTREMELY stoked for this set <3Just put one in! ;)
+1 for 40's kit!
I would love to see ISO-FR for this keyset.Working on the NORDEUK kits so we'll see, next along side the space bar kits ;)
If it happen, I'm 100% in.
Very nice keyset. :thumb:
On the Rama M60-A render there seems to be a white tilde-key. But for the life of me I can't see it in the kits.No you're not blind, If anything I was the blind one.... sorry it should be in there now with the updated render. :(
Have I gone blind or is it missing?
I usually have more preference for GMK, but this in ePBT is actually beautifulMany thanks! :D

If some of you are curious to why I reply to the comments in such large chunks, its because I don't really want to bump my own post unless there has been an update (Feels wrong for some reason).

I usually do see all of your comments pretty fast and I am constantly reading them and the feedback from the google forms I just don't reply because again I don't feel right bumping my own post, however I have personally contacted some of you reguarding some concerns and questions. Additionally I have been in the talks with some vendors and some collabs but probably won't reveal anything until its more solid as well as having all of my kits finalized. Lastly with school ending next week this term I can hopefully finish and finalize all kits by the end of December and finally, I hope you liked the update! :)
Agreed, I’ve never been disappointed in anything I’ve gotten from ePBT! I’m also looking forward to the keyset!EPBT not good and also. . . . . gradient? :DNot a set for you, apparently ;-)
Working on the NORDEUK kits so we'll see, next along side the space bar kits ;)please include support for ISO-French in that NORDEUK if you dont make a dedicated ISO-French kit
"Cap profile will be 1-1-2-3-4-4"
I'm sorry, I'm still really new to keebs and building in general, what exactly does this mean? Is this SA, or Cherry or a different kind of profile? I tried looking it up and ended up making myself more confused.
I think I understand the numbers are referring to the heights of the keys, maybe, but what does that mean? Is there a profile I could look at as a reference point for these?
Please help me learn. :confused:
I really love that this is epbt and isn't GMK. I don't want them to shine in a week of use.No specific timeline yet, but I would say most likely before summer of 2021
Any estimates on timeline for gb and release?
Can we get a second B-key for Alice support? Maybe add it to the 40s/Ortho kit?It has been granted :0
Is the NORDEUK kit still planned? This would be a perfect set for my SO, seeing as she loves BTS.This has also been granted :0. I just want to mention this again here, but I may or may not have miscolored a key in the NORDEUK kit, I double/tripled check to make sure but things get through; if you find that anything is off please let me know
Looking pretty good. Is there any chance of getting a UK vendor?Unfortunatly no, all the announced vendors will be everyone that I will be working with. :[

Would it also be possible to get a second hangul B as well?Just added one to the spacebars kit. :]
I love this set and can't wait to get it! It would be amazing if it had a 2.0 unit backspace key or novelty key to fit my keeb!A 2.0U backspace is standard, and is already included in the basekit. :]
Will there be any custom cable go with it?Currently in the talks with someone. :)
Will be grabbing this one for sure <3Looking forword to Superstar. ;)
Good sir, I am hoping to get this set to match it with the upcoming Whimsy (in pink). I was wondering whether your novelties kit has any 2.25U caps for R4, for I was thinking on getting the base kit, novelties, and 40's/ortho, but want to make sure I have my need of 2 2.25U spacebars covered.I'm getting this for the Whismy too (in white). Seems like you either use the R3 2.25U novelty, or get the spacebar kit. Single space whimsy probably wouldn't look great with this set since there's no blue 1.25U R4 key.
I really like the clean look of the new deskmat. Not a huge fan of light deskmats in general, but might have to get this one :)Good sir, I am hoping to get this set to match it with the upcoming Whimsy (in pink).

even though i do not know bts so i did not know there was a reference to them, the new mat is by far my favorite (the ? Deskmat :)) nice and not in your face.I'm glad you like it :]
Any thoughts about turning the Hangul sub legends kit into a full alphas replacement kit? This way base + Hangul subs alphas could be theoretically be used to cover two boards!Definitely an interesting thought and something that should be very possible. I was looking into it, not sure if I should do anything to the numbers or just add duplicate keys.
For example, look at GMK Iceberg’s Inuktitut alphas kit.
i cant say the gradient is my favorite. It reminds me of looking at a unicorn under the sunsetI can't disagree with you. :))
Any thoughts about turning the Hangul sub legends kit into a full alphas replacement kit? This way base + Hangul subs alphas could be theoretically be used to cover two boards!I've added some modifier keys as well as the numbers to the sublegends kit, since most people build 75/65% boards there should be enough keys to fit them both. Hopefully even though Base and Sublegends kit will cost slightly more what will happen is that people will buy in pairs so that the overall cost is less. If you do end up buying it alone you could sell it to someone else below sticker price and theoretically pay significantly less for the kit.
For example, look at GMK Iceberg’s Inuktitut alphas kit.

Has there been any thought around possibly using only single Korean sublegends? The double consonant sublegends are redundant for folks who actually type in Korean...There has not been any thought in using only single korean sublegends, in fact this is probably the first time I've heard about them being redudent. I apologize as I am not Korean Im not to sure how much they are actually used/utilized on the day to day basis.
I like the Hangul sub legends! Nice deskmat designs as well! Good luck with this! :thumb:Thanks! :D
I love this set! Looking forward to the group buy!
Also, will there be a possibility to add BTS-related icons on the Novelties? Hehe. Thank you so much!

Just curious, but what do you consider "too expensive"? I really hope this set isn't $150+ or I'll really have a hard time justifying buying it. Hoping it'll be closer to the $100-$130 range.

Colevrak kit please??Unfortunatly no additional kits will be added. This will be it as kits are already being quoted at this very moment. I'm sorry! :[
No worries! I was just wondering. Glad to see it'll be an affordable set. I'll definitely be on the early side of the GB :)Just curious, but what do you consider "too expensive"? I really hope this set isn't $150+ or I'll really have a hard time justifying buying it. Hoping it'll be closer to the $100-$130 range.
I apologize, I can understand the confusion here. When I mention expensive im assuming anything above 130+ maybe even 120+; to be more specific I am aiming for a price of 100-110$ hopefully, as anything above that really is encroaching upon GMK price range.

But obviously anything below $100 is even better, because the cheaper it is the better it will be for all of us. :D

No update yet but we should have one coming up soon. :]Will there be any custom cable go with it?Currently in the talks with someone. :)
Is there an update regarding this? :)
I made an account just for this, you made my keycap dreams come true and just in time for my first custom keyboard! <3
Hello!While I did say that the vendors listed are going to be the only ones, I have been reevaluating. There is a possibility that a PH vendor and a UK vendor will be added, but we will see. :[
Possible to add Zion Studios PH as Philippines vendor? Pretty sure there will be a lot of purchases from PH for this (BTS fans!!!)
Thanks and can't wait for the group buy!!!
I'm very interested in this set and I appreciate going with pbt for the material. But, as someone who owns an EPBT set (epbt purple on white) the purple alphas look more brown. I'm worried that the colors of the irl keycaps aren't going to be remotely accurate to the renders shown.
I love the renders! I would like to know a little more about the color because of the recent comment on the purples looking more brown.

In regards to the purple possibly looking brown; I can't say anything specifically about that yet because they are still currently being prototyped, I've been told a physical sample should be here around March (was not Promised just an estimate so please don't expect it by the end march) and I can make a judgment from there so that can be avoided.

Just commenting to show my support for a UK vendor! That'd be amazing if one gets added :thumb:
+ support for uk vendor
that gradient looks beautiful, im in.
I hope this will really become available locally via PH vendor.
I'm just so in love with the colorway
Prototypist would be great as a UK vendor :)
Lovely set
For the 40s set, is it possible to offer blanks? I know alot of us are mapping our keys differenly and blanks would be a great solution to this problem. Especially when you got this wonderful gradient going across diagonally on the keyboard.During the initial process I was considering blanks however at this point in time the closest things I will offering to blanks will be the novelties. :[
In the NorDeUK set, is the pipe/backspace key not supposed to be pink? It'll sit on R4 on the split left shift.You are 100% correct the pipe and backslash key should be pink, I am so sorry! I've already gone ahead and messaged KBDFans to try and sort this out ASAP.
I can't see any note of that being changed yet.
Update 4.6:
Small update, kits got quoted in USD, the specific price per each region will be reavealed later on due to the constant fluctuation in exchange rates. Additionally group buy dates are currently in the talks approx late April or early May, no promises though.
I implore you to consider producing new renders without filters as your current renders are not accurately depicting the true colours of the set.
As it stands, the final product will not resemble the colours shown in your current renders. In the interest of avoiding another TKC/IFK color mismatching debacle, I would recommend attempting to display the colours of your set more accurately

WOW. This price is incredible. An absolute steal.
Not to press too much, but any idea how much deskmats will be?
SUPER excited for this. Thanks for the emails and speedy updates :)

Pretty standard for EPBT (if anything a little more expensive because of the reverse dye subbing involved). Don't let gmk pricing skew your perception.
Am I the only one who couldn't see the prices on the OP?
Do you happen to have a discord or will be making one?
Can you put row labellings on the novelties kit? Not too sure about them, thanks!

i have been trying to learn korean for the past year and cant thank you enough for the double consonants!! it was the reason i didnt pick up GMK Rainy Day because i can never remember which is the double consonant on the O and the P keys.
Will there be an all-white alphas kit?
Will there be an all-white alphas kit?
IMO that seems a bit conterproductive when the appeal of these caps is the gradient?
but, if you wanted white alphas, (that also have a somewhat similar gradient!) why not check out KAT Phantasmagoria? unfortunately the gradient is straight across and not diagonal like this kit.
Any chance you add the 7 Mac Azerty keycaps in the French ISO kit ? :D this current kit only support PC Azerty :Dwtf did apple do to change 7 keys on the azerty layout? it is a pretty big part of the keyboard or is it just the bottom row and so you should ask for a mac kit so that not only french user can get it but everyone.
are the prices shown in USD or other currency?
I'm really excited for this!!!

dunno why they changed those keys. I made a comparison between the PC AZERTY and APPLE AZERTY
I am absolutely IN LOVE with this set, so I REALLY don't want to miss the GB window. Is there any expected GB date or a discord that I can join to stay in the loop?
Do you happen to have a discord or will be making one?Many of you have asked, I've finally decided to create one. It will be a very bare bones server mainly for updates on dreamscape IC and GB once we hit that stage. https://discord.gg/CAaSZfEG7y
Will there be an all-white alphas kit?Not now, but depending on how well this runs ;)
are we close to getting a tentative date for GB?Definitly close as it seems most of us are agreeing on a specific date but again, no promises.
I'm so excited for this set to release, any hint on collaborations for things like cables or anything yet?Sorry not yet, I really want to confirm a group buy date first before revealing any collabs in case anything happens and the set gets postponed indefinitly due to some unforseen circumstance. :[
I was just doing a mockup to check I'd have all the keys I need, and I've just noticed that the number legends in the NORDE/UK kit are lower down on the keys than the rest of the numbers in the base kit. So as I'm going to be doing a UK layout, the numbers 2, 3, and 4 look a bit wonky in line with the rest of it, screenshot here of what I mean: https://i.imgur.com/7tjIFT1.pngSorry I've gone ahead and fixed them in the renders but they should not come out like that in the final product and will line up properly.
Is it too late to have these moved up in line with the rest of the numbers?
ahhhh exciting!! Will we see prototypes before the gb? I'm super excited to take a look at them :DIt'll most likely be during the GB
Would it be possible to get renders of the set on different colored boards like rose gold, lilac, or blue?
Also interested in a rose gold render.
ahhhh exciting!! Will we see prototypes before the gb? I'm super excited to take a look at them :DIt'll most likely be during the GB
I fell in love with these keycaps at first sight and I'm so excited to join the GB. I'm new to custom keyboards so I'm not sure if this is common knowledge or not, but what is the size of the 2nd spacebar in the basekit?
Is there an expected date for arrival of samples? This is easily a first-day, multiple-kit buy for me, but I really want to see those samples.Unfortunately, I don't believe the samples will arrive in time. I asked around 3 days ago and have been given update of "No updates since"
So I like the set, definitely gonna get the base kit. But whats that BO60 board in your renders? Is it in IC? Any Discord for that?I will probably have something up for it in my discord server sometime in the next month or two. I'm not sure if we will actually go forword with that design though.
For the short spacebars in 40's/ortho kit and SpacebarsThey will all be convex spacebars.
are the 1u 1.25u 1.5u spaces , are they all convex (like 6.25u spacebar) or they are concave (like shift keys)?
thank you
