[IC] GMK Maroon | GB March 28th!
« on: Sat, 17 April 2021, 17:10:57 »
GB Thread Here!

I was inspired by deep red and purple, and I wanted to make a clean, simple mono set that had a splash of color, and that's why I chose to make this set!



Colors


Color Comparison


Kits

Base Kit


Alt Alphas


Spacebars


Renders
Colors may not be fully accurate, and are merely to provide an idea of what it may look like. The kitting renders are the most color accurate, while the board renders use different lighting to imitate real life lighting setups

Beak 6.5 by Stilou Studio



TMO v2 by Funderburker



TGR Alice by Yuktsi



Dalco 959 Mini by DalexSnail



Deskmats

Bird (Huge thanks to mooN for designing this one! Inspired by the maroon colored Pompadour Cotinga)



Topo



Wave



Deskmat samples should arrive soon!

Topo and Wave deskmats are a collaboration with BobaSweatandTears

I originally had that, but switched to a darker accent. If enough people want it I'll change it!

I may end up changing to white accents as it seems like many people want it.

i would add full alpha + mod gmk VOC as that’s what looks very familiar to me.

also phantom, although the colors of the set in real life resemble this more than the original renders did.

 Looking awesome, try to see if you can add arrow accents  :D, white accents would look awesome but I think that it might resemble to bingsu a bit but quite frankly would look pretty lit ngl, GLWIC BROTHA  :thumb:

I have too many monochrome sets, but I am so tempted by this. Btw I think White/Light accents might suit this set better. GLWIC!

Ooo, very nice! I like it :D

*small edit; I do notice a lot of differences between the various renders. Which one would you say is the closest to the color? The ones from Vulcan especially are completely different.

As said above, the base kit renders are the closest to accurate. I did mess around with different lighting scenes to imitate different light sources irl

whew! not only do the white accents look DOPE, removing the third color should drop the cost of the base kit. stroke of brilliance IMO.

Am very curious how the pricing on this turns out. You already know I'm down...
