Or Are they custom colors?

While I think the name isn't great for a keyset (and the compatibility should be improved, I'll just assume this is a WIP). I quite like the colors, I'm interested.

I feel like buying this and getting a plane ticket with them just for the sake of showing it off to them lol :)). I could just lie about it to them that I got it from their HQ heh

On another note, pretty sure GMK can, but pink Thai sub-legends would be overly freaking sweet on this set! It'll be the first GMK Thai sub-legends too - instant buy. Do it!

HHKB layout support - 1.5u backspace

It feels a bit too feminine for me, but I would buy if it had a sweet diagonal in the style of 1976 but with these colors.  True to the aircraft as well.

Do the Thai sub-legends! gmk had previously done the Royal Alpha set with sub-Cyrillic legends. Pretty sure gmk can sort out Thai sub-legends.

This is exactly the set that I've been looking for to match with my purple aluminum case! I really hope this set comes to fruition! We seriously need more good purple GMK sets.

Is there anyway for you to add a R3 Control key to replace the Caps Lock key with? That's a must have for me.

The refinements are looking great!

Please add two R4 1u 'Code' keys (ideal) or one 1u 'Menu' key.

Would be fantastic to see Split-Space support!
Looking for two R4 2u keys for Clueboard. Included in the set might be more appropriate, though a separate kit is also good but could be hard to reach MOQ.

You should see the 1u-Menu key and two 1u-Code keys in the final solution. About any other keys maybe I will try , but no promises. Thanks a lot.

I've just seen the updated novelties they look good. There's 12 of them, so I guess they go on R1 for the F keys? If they're not, I think numbering them down to 8/9 seems about right.
[attach=1]

I really like the durian :) Are these correct? I can't quite picture what the snake and crab is. Is the snake, the Serpent and the crab, the Horseshoe Crab?
I think swapping the crab to Thai's national dish - Phad Thai makes more sense for food IMO.

Those fonts are 'modern' as it is and original Thai alphabets. It's not just some simple process to replicate fancy 'modern' English font styles with Thai letters. It's possible, but it's not some quick font change you make it out to be.
If cleaning and 'modernising' Thai letters it should be for the main legends, of focus, and English as sub-legends
Title: Re: [IC]GMK THAI (sublegends confirmed)
Post by: EWBears on Fri, 14 April 2017, 08:25:40
What are you talking about, Owl?  I lived in Thailand for years and I write and speak Thai, so I think that I'm qualified to weigh in on this.  Most modern fonts are drastically different from the set that OP is using.  Look at any advertisement or movie trailer and you'll almost certainly see a font where the loops are omitted for a cleaner look.

Yes, of course, the letters are the same. The alphabet hasn't changed, it's still the same language, but young Thais much prefer a cleaner font that more closely resembles Roman letters.  The font in OP is used in books and online but it's outdated and not very hip, and frankly it's not as aesthetically pleasing as contemporary options.
Title: Re: [IC]GMK THAI (sublegends confirmed)
Post by: Owl- on Fri, 14 April 2017, 09:17:46
Your post sounds like you want fancier fonts like Bradley Hand or a custom font remake. I’m talking about that the fonts are still classed as modern for keyboards, so it's recognisable because it's widely used in texts, books, etc. I’m aware that adverts or movies fonts are modern and different because it is done to be graphical.

I’m saying if modernised Thai fonts are preferred, so it has cleaner lines and loops, IMO I think it looks better as the main legends for a better focus to better show that, so they ‘pop’ more to reflect.
Title: Re: [IC]GMK THAI (sublegends confirmed)
Post by: EWBears on Fri, 14 April 2017, 09:28:40
OK I understand now, and I think that I miscommunicated my request for considering a more contemporary font. I wasn't asking OP for a more elaborate font but actually a simpler, cleaner font which could be the primary legends or the sublegend. I actually like the idea of Thai being the main legends and English being the sublegend.

Did you see my HHKB that I posted on the first page of this thread? That's the kind of font that I recommend at least considering for a board like this.  I find the font used in OP renders to be overly complex with all of the loops and thin lines, but that's just my personal opinion.
Title: Re: [IC]GMK THAI (sublegends confirmed)
Post by: Owl- on Fri, 14 April 2017, 11:13:27
I certainly have, especially if I'm reading this far :)) Your Thai keycaps are what I've noticed that its got cleaner fonts, and it is also what I had to mind for reference to be the main legends and English as sub-legends.

Personally, for me, I still admire the traditional regular font like the one I have here
[attach=1]
but always open to the cleaner font as you've suggested :)
Title: Re: [IC]GMK THAI (sublegends confirmed)
Post by: EWBears on Fri, 14 April 2017, 11:32:23
Your keycap set is nice! Is that DSA? Were they custom printed?

Also, part of my reason for asking OP to consider something different is because there are already sets out there with alphas quite similar to the ones that they designed (just different legend colors) and if you're going to do a cool foreign language set it's nice to have something unique IMO. Ducky makes pbt Thai language sets with the font that OP used and corsair makes double shot and white on black and black on white. There are probably a few other sets floating around out there too that are similar to this one.

They're nice indeed :) Yes, DSA, produced by Endsvile.

Understood :) This set is still in the IC phase, so 458 still has plenty of time to work on this set.
As far as I'm aware, the ones in PBT by Ducky hasn't been stocked for a while now, they've moved to ABS instead, but that too hasn't been stocked much. Since when did Corsair start doing doubleshot? Pretty sure they've only done their usual laser etched thin ABS, even till now.

I'm pretty sure most of the corsair out there now are double shot since they are compatible with backlighting like the ones seen here: http://www.rtbplus.com/market/uploaded_files/images/Corsair/S__6635538.jpg (http://www.rtbplus.com/market/uploaded_files/images/Corsair/S__6635538.jpg)

But you're right that the ducky pbt is getting harder to find and they have some abs options that is more common but still requires some searching.

Either way custom seems like the best of the current options, but it would be nice to have a GMK set too!

That's their regular ABS coated in black then laser etched for shine-through, not doubleshot  :))

Just hoping this set is price friendly in the end :)

Thank you for so many interesting and very good proposals to help improve the GMK THAI. I'll do my best.

They're nice indeed :) Yes, DSA, produced by Endsvile.

Understood :) This set is still in the IC phase, so 458 still has plenty of time to work on this set.
As far as I'm aware, the ones in PBT by Ducky hasn't been stocked for a while now, they've moved to ABS instead, but that too hasn't been stocked much. Since when did Corsair start doing doubleshot? Pretty sure they've only done their usual laser etched thin ABS, even till now.

Your are highly talented and the original intention: (Attachment Link)

Thanks for the advice. I hope we can work together more.

I LOVE the Serpent, Elephant, Crown, Crab, Grand Palace, and Coconut tree! Please keep those Novelties no matter what! I need these!

The Scuba Diving is great too. It would be so neat if the other Novelties could be neat animals too, but I know that would probably be a bit too much for other people.

I'm glad you like those novelties. I'll design more novelties about the Thailand cultural elements, but not necessaril about the animals. You like animals? The peacock? The crocodile? Thailand is a country of many regional animals.

I love them too, but I don't feel the crab, serpent and coconut tree reflects Thailand well enough as the rest does. I don't see why you'd need them apart from using them for a different set.

Having more animals will detour the set to something else. It's best to get a good variation from a whole, not animals alone. One of each element is better.

It should be unless this ends up being triple shot, which would be legit a banger if it is.


Thank you for so many interesting and very good proposals to help improve the GMK THAI. I'll do my best.

Have you thought about doing the Thai sub-legends on the front and not top? I think it's an interesting style too.
Or have the Thai legends as the main top legends and English sub-legends on the front; I think that would be a killer combo too.

option 1 (Current) - top English legends and Thai sub-legends
option 2 - top English legends, front Thai sub-legends
option 3 - top Thai legends and English sub-legends
option 4 - top Thai legends, front English sub-legends

You could do a poll for this if there's enough interest or find out what most prefer.

@Owl-,

I think you're taking what I'm saying too literally. People can say they "need" something just for the sake of saying it. In my case I just said I need it because I think it's really cool and I would like them/purchase them. I get having more animals would change the theme too much, hence why I said while they would be neat, "it would probably be too much for other people."

Having both legends, Latin and Thai, on top make the set look too cramped. Besides, pad printed legends will fade making the set looking  pretty bad.
Title: Re: [IC]GMK THAI (Updated)
Post by: Owl- on Mon, 17 April 2017, 10:29:46
I don't think it looks cramped IMO compared to something bolder like Cyrillic.
Having the sub-legends on the front will surely prevent fading from happening. Hence front sub-legends suggestion is one of my reasons.

Nice colors combo and sub legends but really no love for pad printing on top.

I did suggest to have the English Latin as side pad printed sub-legends and Thai as the main legends on top, to significantly prolong the life of the pad print. Not sure what anyone else thinks tho. Would personally love to see an interesting render of it.
If there are demands, I could see it as an extra kit, just for those alphas. I'd definitely grab both.

Sounds great. Adding that one key would allow the set to be fully compatible with minorca/sebright/jd40/jd45 boards, as well as allow the set to mix-and-match with Lazer, which should be in Cherry profile.
