How are the numbers looking?

I haven't been able to load some of dvorcol's graph images. Might just be an issue on my end.

But just in case, here are the numbers in plain text as of 3/30/21

Base 225
MOQs: 250 / 500 / 1000 / 1500 / 2000 / 2500

Extension 49
MOQs: 100 / 150 / 250 / 500 / 1000

Novelties 107
MOQs: 100 / 150 / 250 / 500 / 1000 / 1500

Spacebars 91
MOQs: 100 / 150 / 250 / 500 / 1000 / 1500

Deskmat (Light) 39
Deskmat (Dark) 41


Not including extras.

FYI I can see dvorcol's previous post, the numbers for the basekit match what you wrote down, maybe it is just some browser issue,

Using IMGUR might fix this issue, but it's a violation of their official rules to store images there just to post elsewhere.  If caught they might kick you out, breaking links to all your IMGUR images.  I learned this when biip was kicked out last year, so I use postimage.

Show Image


I did some testing and my issue was being caused by the VPN I use at times.

When it's off there's not problem viewing the image.

Thanks for checking things out dv

@NaturalPack can you confirm that all the kits will be made?

Yes sir/maam, updated numbers have been posted in the thread copy as well as a reply.

Provided the numbers are correct, all kits will be made.

Might just be me but the new renders look like slightly different colours to the original renders?

Some of the post GB launch renders were done separately from the original renders. There are some differences in the lighting/environment/post so it looks a little different.

They were just to provide some extra references along the way.

No color difference in the production sets though.

Congratulations

The final numbers are really good especially considering the set was running against Striker.

Would you consider to setup a Discord server for updates?

I’m just voicing my opinion in regard to the discord request - please use geekhack for updates as well at the very least. Personally I would rather avoid having to track discord servers and be able to find updates in the GB threads on GH.

I'll primarily be using geekhack for any updates. Can't make any promises on a discord right now.

For anyone who prefers  a source outside of geekhack for updates, you can also follow along at my website.

naturalpack.org

Geekhack is where the most detailed info will be available, but the website generally follows along.

He hasn’t been on geekhack since January so even PMing may not do too much. If get the colors matched soon we might even get the set this year.

UPDATED ON JANUARY 4TH 2022
Moving Forward
Hi everyone,

I've become a bit too busy to continue designing in the mech community.

Janglad will be taking over my projects. Follow him at his website  qoda.studio or on Geekhack for future updates.

Please don't hound him to work on every single set, he's already got a lot on his plate.

I will be finishing Astral Light and then signing out. Thanks so much.

-NP

I will keep this website up until the end of January.

He did say he'd be finishing Astral Light before dipping, so why the radio silence? This is rough. I didn't personally join the GB on this but I know someone who did, and they've been getting restless about the whole thing.

Yeah, as someone who's got money thrown at this, I just want clean and clear information.
Shipping time as of OG post says Q1 '22, which we're almost out of, so I'm not expecting that, but given the fact that we don't even have updates on what stage the set is in, I'm not really feeling that great about it.

Really don't want to get burned here, hoping he gives us any kind of info soon.

Yeah it’s been just about a year now since there’s been an update on this thread lol.
On Project Keyboards page it says “R1 Samples sent for testing”, not sure exactly what that means. I’m assuming it means samples have been sent to the creator? But it’s been on that update for quite some time now, makes me wonder if they’re still waiting on their approval of samples or not? Was hoping to get this in Q4 when that was the initial timeline, now it’s looking more like Q2-Q3. Man everything is so badly delayed lol.

In project keyboard's discord the last update was back in December but it's slightly more recent than the one about 'R1 samples sent for testing'. The update was:

GMK Astral Light: Modifier color approved; Alpha, Legend, and Accent colors rejected. New round requested.

Still nothing new regarding Astral from Project KB. Will reach out to them again and see if there's been any progress made.

Although I’m not sure how much that will help. Their discord server is a ghost town.

Update on Astral as of Jan 2023

Project is currently expecting Q2-Q3. Apparently colors are done.

Best place to get these updates is the Project Keyboard Discord. Quakemz regularly tries to provide progress briefs on the sets they are currently working on.

Updates do need to be posted here as well, btw (thank you for doing so in the past - please continue to update at least monthly). Can’t expect everyone to join a thousand discord servers just to get updates.

no joke, I’m always at the 100 limit for a free discord account.  Every time I have to join a new server, I start combing through to find out which one has a finished group buy so that I can leave it.  😝

I've looked at this set at least a dozen different times and still can't tell if the mods are a slightly darker shade than the alphas or not. Are they supposed to be the same color?

Routine update here. No new information regarding production but also no bad news or setbacks.

Things still seem to be on pace for the latter half of 2023.
