[IC] GMK Ishtar -- Goes Live July 28th!
« on: Wed, 08 April 2020, 20:39:44 »
Introducing GMK Ishtar

GROUP BUY POST ----> https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=107776.0

Hey everyone! Because of a sudden influx of time due to self-isolation, this concept thats been in my head for a while can finally come into fruition.
I present GMK Ishtar, a concept based on everyone's favorite goddess Ishtar from Fate/GO.

Ishtar is the goddess of beauty, good harvests, war, lust, discord, fertility and Venus in Mesopotamian Mythology/Sumerian Mythology/Babylonian Mythology, and one among the many mother goddesses whose power is derived from the Earth Mother. Said to be the most pampered, or rather, the most beloved goddess by the other deities.

I am conflicted, my inner weeb is celebrating all these anime kits but at the same time aren't we getting too many? Let's save some of these for later, I mean at the current rate we will run out of nice characters.  :eek:

I got you:
Love the effort behind this set, but come on... another weeb set? This isn't more-so directed to you OP, as the effort behind this is obviously there, and there is thought behind it, but I am sick of the constant IC posts themed after Animes. Its just too much at this point. People gotta tone it down a little with these constant Anime themed keyset posts. Its like every other week another one pops up.

Don't get me wrong I love the colors of the set, it's just there are so many anime ones and I feel like it makes us who have shorter budgets have to make too many difficult choices and its hard.  :(

The solution is, obviously, a Hiragana-only Kit. Let the weebs play with themselves.

That does seem to be the solution, but then I have to make 2 kits for the white and dark alphas with hiragana, its not an issue for me, but would people want 4 kits in total?

No, 4 alpha kits will not likely make MOQ.


I suggest not doing a dark alpha kit, but if you do, turn into Hiragana sub alpha kit as well.

I personally really like the dark alphas, so the options are hiragana or dark alphas right now. I am a man of the people so whatever people want more I'll give to them.

This is pretty amazing to see one of my favorite characters on a keyset, considering the number of characters available in the Fate series.

Observations/Suggestions:

- Kuro set is missing F-Row keys for full black/red set
- Accent key color is on the yellow side, not sure if a gold more closely resembling her look is achievable

I think the PrtSc, Scroll, Pause keys should be mod colored (black). Not only will it look better on ≥TKLs imo, but it will also enable you to use those keys (most notably PrtSc) on smaller layouts (65%, 75%, even 1800), whereas you can't really do that if they're alpha colored.

Also, consider using Print, Scroll legends instead of PrtSc, Scroll↲Lock, they look better.

I'll take a look at modifying the legends themselves, the kuro addon makes the PrtSc, Scroll, Pause keys black!

Personally I didn't care whether you included hiragana, however after seeing the hiragana render I'm going to jump in and say +1 for hiragana on the base alphas and dark set for non-hiragana (assuming it's either this or no hiragana).
Also, I don't know how others necessarily feel about this or whether anyone else even cares about this, but personally I dislike having a centred shift and a non-centred caps lock. I think you should either run the caps lock centred as well to fit uniformity of the rest of the board or to run all of them in the same fashion as the caps lock.
A secondary suggestion to this would be to offer a text kit for backspace, enter, Rshift and Lshift, tab and caps lock.
Anyway, aside from these changes I think the set is looking very promising. Nicely done OP!

Thanks so much for the kind words! (on both your posts), I've done many tiny changes to each set based on feedback from fellow designers as well as people from the google form, I have indeed fixed the shift key issue, and overall made the kit better, I'll re-upload everything once I finish up the new novelties! Also about the text kit, definetly considered, but I dont know about it hitting moq, especisially since im running gmk -- im a big fan of minimalism so I dont like to see too too much text in places/keycaps.

Considering minimalism, funny thing is that GMK Minimal uses full text on the mods.

However, I think the icon (arrows) fit the theme better.

Both would look good.

I'm constantly updating the kits's legends based on feedback, i changed "ctrl" to "control", and i'm in the process right now of properly color matching everything to see what it'd look like irl.

It was not actually, I was more sampling from the character herself and not really mana, might make some novelty out of it though.

Just stumbled across this IC. Do you have color codes for the colors in this set? I might be interested in the novelties if they match stuff I already own.

On the topic of novelties, I saw on the form a render of a key with the FGO icon. Is that initial icon a vector image? If so who can I contact to see about getting a copy of it? I've been looking for a vector of the FGO icon.

Also wondering how the kuro add-on would look like accented by gold.

What if the Kuro add-on was the color of the robe Ereshkigal wears. Since she and Ishtar are different side of the same coin. How would that look like?

I mean it basically is that color scheme, black + red. But not a bad idea for future ideas 👀.

Wow I wanna get it. As for people complaining about hiragana keycaps ignore them. There is a function for having hiragana key caps for people who can actually type in Japanese.
For those who have so much problems with it being a “weeb” product I suggest you keep your words to yourself and not judge others.
Nice design btw! Where can I order this should it be made available if I’m from Singapore
