Title: [IC] GMK Tamago

A face keycap set that doesn't cause civil discourse!


Interest Check form here! (https://forms.gle/UUwGadcDLGZcCs5v8)


The Inspiration

GMK Tamago is inspired by Gudetama, aka the lazy egg.
Its yolky yellows mesh really nicely with GMK's WS1 to create this set.

Kitting
Kitting is a bit wonky (mod !1 and mod 1u pipe).
I really wanted the base kit to at the very least support an egg yolk-like alpha cluster.
Other face keycap sets force the face in the base kit, but since im using CR+WS1, and given the popularity of GMK WoB, I think its best to leave the face kit as an accent kit.

Hi, you may be interested in WASD custom keycaps! They let you choose whichever color keys you want so you can get some pretty unique designs, and the caps are very affordable.

My favorite comment in quite some time. Well done misswaffle!

This one time I dropped an egg on my keyboard but I never considered having egg colored keycaps. Hmmmmmmmmmm....

It's not just about egg though.

OP should remove any reference to Gudetama if they want to run this set. Sanrio is the Disney of Japan when it comes to defending their IP.

The face kit renders look kinda terrifying but what if the mouth was white and the spacebar was yellow? (My imagination is terrible so there's a chance that would be just as scary, if not worse.)
