Ivan's GB is Dolch alpha's with WoB mods.  Not close to graphite.

I thought Ivans's current buy alphas were dolch mod colors?

Ah you are correct.  I read the post in the thread wrong.

Still.  Too much Dolch lately.  GMK Graphite 2013

I think it's settled then. The 3rd color must be Graphite!

So you want many different gray + black sets vs. an opportunity to do something different?  Just putting it in perspective.

IDK why just after we had Dolch a lot of people want Dolch again with Dolch blue legends, yellow legends, orange legends, now graphite set..... In all honesty Dolch looks best and unique cause of the clean white legends..... I love the fact that Sherry is running the Handerbeit, its as unique or even more rare than the Dolch before it entered production. I like anything that comes from GMK, but as of now the only thing I'm excited about is the Habnderbeit and the RGBY, long live GMK!!! and Sherry too lol

Would be keen on either the graphite or white and burgundy, preferably graphite!
It's a good width!  If it's half-width it's too narrow, and full-width is too wide.

Yolch has faded away.

Sky Blue Dolch, SoWare, Burgundy, and Graphite.  Am I missing anything?  I will add a Poll in the OP tonight.

Raindrop and the faded teal Adler set would be good to see numbers on as well.

I was looking for the TA set, but I can only find 1 ... http://i.imgur.com/v5tuld5.jpg

The other I remember was the one that was posted by Dorkvader.  It was somewhat green legends I believe.  Please let me know which one.

I finally voted for Raindrop. Even if you only did the Modifiers I could easily use it with my vintage Cherry ISO DE sets:



Please consider including a 6.25 universal spacebar in Cherry Profile if you do this Mod set and make the "~" and "\" keys blue as well for perfect symmetry.

When you say monotoned what you mean by that? we will have the retro style like the modifiers in brown color right? I think this deep cream color + nice/proper brown color for modifiers would be nice combo.

I would prefer CreamOnBrown Mods with BrownOnCream Alphas as well, but I am afraid monotone means all keycaps are the same. I am not sure though - let's wait for Sherryton to clarify :)

No, I just like the pale salmon-colored mods, hopefully paired with dark blue alphas. The image I posted doesn't capture the color quite right -- I think they would look awesome. Enough with the gray on slightly-more gray color schemes.

You can use the teal from Sherry's plastic sampler + some sort of cream or light gray.  That's perfectly doable for a teal set.

It doesn't need to be accurate.  It's a thread for GMK set color layouts--going to be different regardless.  Even the latest Dolch isn't 100% exact.

We should aim for the best
This thread is for ideas, so yes, a teal set would be kinda cool
If Triumph Adler were to be a serious option, the new color would be expensive (fyi..)
