[IC] GMK Cream Matcha | GB March 25th!
« on: Sun, 18 July 2021, 00:39:01 »


We went to a coffee shop and asked for a matcha latte and since then we fell in love with the flavor.




Colors


That’s right only 2 colors in all the set, no accent color, we wanted to preserve the essence of the drink at its best.

We hope you like this set and we would be happy to read your opinion in the form below.
Interest Check 2.0





The Base Kit Will cover all your basic needs like the extra B for Alice and basic 40’s key.


(In case you didn't know, Matcha powder is used in the Japanese ceremony of tea influenced by zen Buddhism, that's why the hiragana Sublegends)


Some of you suggest that I swap the colors, but my vision for this set was to do something different in the color combinations, 90% of the sets that go on sales in the alphas are light colors and the modifiers are dark, so I ventured to do the opposite and I think I came up with a combination that works.



Not a fan of hiragana sublegends? I have this kit for you.



The Matcha can be prepared in a lot of different varieties, so here you can have the basic props to make your own tea or latte.

The colors for this set doesn't hurt my eyes, and the novelties look pleasant. By default, it's already the more successful matcha set.

I guess it is a preference thing, but most people don’t use mod colored spacebars, so taking them out of the kit would reduce the price a bunch. Like the colors and the novelties are really nice. Good luck!

+1 top this feedback. I usually prefer Dark mods over light mods but this works.

The novelties are really clean and the colours work surprisingly well together. The green is too strongly saturated to give me a matcha vibe, but that’s just me.

... most people don’t use mod colored spacebars, so taking them out of the kit would reduce the price a bunch.

Definitely this, especially GMK.

I loved seeing this set progress and it looks great!

Some very minor nitpicks to make this the best it can be:
-the lighting on your kitting renders is a little bright - the legends should be a bit easier to read given the colors you've chosen.
-desaturate the background of kitting renders to make it easier to see colors. it can stay green but pls not so much green
-only offering 2 R1 1u novs hurts, 3 or 4 would be nice
-your current nov kitting has no R4 1us, turn a couple R3s into R4
-please add key sizes to all your kitting renders, especially spacebars pls

Always love me some green sets and I love Matcha.

But I feel the shade of green you selected isn't the best representation of it.

I like the colorway so far, but one thing bugging me is the hiragana sublegend.  を on 0 key is supposed to be as big as わ, not the smaller one and missing ー on top of ほ on - key as well. Please fix that before GB.

GLWIC.
