GB is live!!!

https://thekey.company/collections/night-runner

Welcome to the night:

Many of you know me from my Nexus Slider GB and more recently my keyboard designs from TheKey.Company, and for a while now I have been wanting to make a set but could never find the right one, until now.

Inspired by those elite few who navigate the rooftops of a dystopian cyberpunk city, GMK Night Runner aims to bring a little of the not-so-distant future to your set up.
The inky dark alpha base color represents the night sky, while the soft, dark blue used for the modifiers represents moon lit features, and the bright yellow legends represents the landscape of fluorescent signs and people running about the city and its skyline.
So without further ado, GMK Night Runner.

Keyset test render(not accurate to base kit):

Proposed kits:

Board render:

Renders by voodoo6k, the mastermind behind DSA Scientific.

Grid 600 with LED module.

Novelties:

Deskpad:

Drawn by OneCreativeMind.

Drawn by OneCreativeMind.

Colors:

Alpha base is the same as GMK Red samurai mods(by coincidence).

IC Form:

https://forms.gle/UVGZq19VCEFEheCK8

Additional info:

Cables will be available from Zap.

I am debating about adding artisans as well, but that is TBD.

Support:

Show you support for the set by using the following code in your signature. Artwork done by OneCreativeMind.

Timeline:

Looking to launch the GB in July Waiting on GMK to review colors to see how well they can match and to prevent issues prior to the GB.

Vendor/Proxy:

Main vendor: TheKey.Company
Proxies: TBD

I like it, especially the alphas and the accent keys. If you were to add novelties, what do you have in mind?

Currently undecided, but that needs to be discussed. Not sure what I want the novelties theme to be so I don't have any ideas drafted up atm.

Surely this goes against your vision of the set but I feel like the mod colour steals the show here, I'd like to see what it'd look like if it were a uniform set (à la terminal/skidata/etc) with just the acid yellow accents.

I get where you are coming from but I wasn't in love with that as much hence the mod change. Maybe I could do a N9 mod kit but base will be the blue.

Hmm, colors do match very well, unintentional but a good match.

BlindAssassin111 · « **Reply #20 on:** Mon, 22 April 2019, 17:31:26 »

Updated the IC form to include a question about the alpha color, So please fill it out to vote on possibly changing the color.

Current alphas are N9(renders are darker than intended) but I am thinking about switching to Pantone 426 C which is a mid point between N9 and CR. The reason to keep N9 is to be able to match other N9 sets, but switching would make it closer to the original renders and what I was thinking of color wise. Hard decision as both have pros/cons but I am on the fence and can't decide myself.

BlindAssassin111 · « **Reply #21 on:** Tue, 23 April 2019, 17:07:48 »

Update:

Updated kits to fix compatibility and requests from the IC form. As well I have updated the colors to include Pantone 426 C, which is at this time the planned alpha base and accent legends color.

That is the plan, working on it in the background right now. Have to get novelties figured out and then real renders will be made and figuring out time frame from there.

Thank you! OneCreativeMind and me have been going back and forth the past few days to try and get great novelties, still may do more if we get some really good suggestions anytime soon.

Also the Deskpad is in the works and I think it will be one of the best out there imo.

sux about 3u, but what can you do i guess

i really dig the "night city" vibe. i would love to see more modifiers w/ the skyline motif. an entire bottom (or top) row of buildings would be awesome and very unique. im also a fan of icon only modifiers, like these. not sure why more designs dont use the classic unix option/alt and meta symbols. this kit is looking super awesome. and i'm definitely down for "when" this becomes a reality. keep up the good work!

Well you are in luck, we added more! I am not sure if we will have that many novelties, just because cost only gets worse the more we add.

I've heard RAL colors are easier for GMK to match than Pantone. Might be worth considering/asking them to avoid issues with color accuracy.

Reason for it being 夜走 "Night Run" is to match the novelties(being that runner is two characters 走者).

Hey!

I made that render. In it, the keys reflect a lot of neon blue light. It's more of an artistic render to show off the theme.

This one has more natural lighting:

Also looking to launch in a few weeks, so keep a look out for more posts!

Those were part of the group that was cut out to try and reduce the number of caps. I can't remember what boards needed those, if you could let me know I may add them back in if it would be worth it.

They get used in the right column of some 65% boards. The Tada68, the Massdrop Alt, and the WhiteFox, for example.

Update:

Changed up kits a bit to give better support. And wanted to announce that the GB will be running very soon, Date is June 14th as I need to get the final set of renders in and ready for the GB launch and get all accessories ready as well.

Base kit: Now has the R3 PgUp and R4 PgDn caps added back in.

40's kit: Changed support quite a bit to try and get split space in there so 40's users weren't forced to buy 3 kits. Added full split space support to the kit but the compromise was keeping the accent colored 2U and 1U spacebars in the spacebar kit to keep the size of the 40s kit down as it is already fairly massive.

Spacebar kit: Moved the alpha colored 2u and 1u spacebars to the 40s kit and have duplicate alpha colored 2.25u and 2.75u spacebars for those that need split space support on non-40% boards.

Novelties kit: Added a new Skyline cap to allow for a full set of 4 for either function row or bottom row modifiers.

It seems like some group buys have had better luck getting GMK to match RAL than Pantone. You might want to consider using RAL.

Main issue with RAL is the reduced color set, there is no equivalent for the blue ribbon or safety yellow, and the closest colors aren't close enough to use. Hence ordering samples and sending them to GMK to go from there.

It seems like some group buys have had better luck getting GMK to match RAL than Pantone. You might want to consider using RAL.

I can sympathize. I also tried using RAL but the color selection is quite poor in comparison to Pantone. I think that is why GMK can match RAL a bit more easily.

Anyway, this isn't BlindAssassin's first rodeo and he has a good community behind him at TKC so I wouldn't worry about the color matching.

June has been a crazy GMK month, so no harm to run it in July. Getting the colors right is always a good call

I don’t like the colour purple. I’m considering getting this set. That must mean you did a good job.

Missed Nautilus so will not miss this set!

In for the base and spacebars. Not a fan for the current novelty designs honestly, so will pass. Personally, I love simple/conceptual symbols as the novelties like shoes, skyscrapers, etc.

The novelties are just placeholders in those kit images.

The real novelties are in the OP.

Update:

Quick update now that the GB is delayed a bit, Got the artwork for the simple deskpad as well in case the full artwork deskpad isn't your thing.

Both drawn by OneCreativeMind.

nasp · « **Reply #85 on:** Thu, 13 June 2019, 15:52:56 »

Another brilliant piece by OneCreativeMind! Looking forward to this set.

Vox_PT · « **Reply #86 on:** Fri, 14 June 2019, 12:15:59 »

I'm in on this. The keyset looks really nice, I really dig this colorway.

This will go nicely with a custom build I have in mind.

(also, I'm glad this is being post-phoned to next month since I can't afford this right now

) )

Update:

Pantone chips are in and look really, really nice. Getting ready to ship them out to GMK right away to get matching feedback and go from there.

Hope everyone is as hyped as I am to get this set going!

Have you considered running a NorDeUk kit or adding UK-ISO caps to the base kit?

At the moment it is mostly just a "Can we get something" as we are trying but have nothing confirmed at the moment, if it doesn't work out then it is what it is.

ISO support will stay as it is in the base kit(only the num row keys missing from support).

Added the novelties to the keysets(found out you can actually do this in KLE, never knew). Pretty pleased with how they look in just the KLE render.

I like this, but i think it would look better with grey legends. I like the yellow accent mods, I just think there is too much yellow at the moment.

Sorry for not updating in a bit, GMK took so long on the color sample approval that is pushed back the GB.

Working on getting everything ready for launch right now, So no updates most likely until launch.

And artisans have been talked about, I have selected what I want and we will go from there. The official announcement/reveal will be later but so far I love them.
