Kaptain Mike:
Changelog
August 19, 2024 - The following changes have been made based on community feedback and my own decision after seeing samples. Please fill out the new IC Form in main post.
NOTABLE CHANGES
Colors:
- Base is Cosmos and Legends are CR = Black
- Accents keys are: CR base with Cosmos legends
- The samples of CR legends on Cosmos base are really good. I originally proposed the opposite because I did not want a super sparkly set and I prefer a less-is-more approach to design. Well, GMK did an amazing job with these samples and they are still very subtle, dark, and low contrast.
- Look at the real sample images and zoom in.
- Please fill out the new form with updated kitting options etc
Kitting
Cosmic Base - Base Kit:
- Moved alice spacebars and extra B in base.
- Moved 4-key 40’s keys in base: R2 1u Esc, R2 1.75u Backspace, R3 1.25u Tab, and R3 1.5u Enter.
- Added accent keys: 2u Numpad Enter, R4 1u Fn
- Added a second 2.25u Shift
Cosmic Dust - Extension:
- Added shine-thru caps: R1 1u Num Lock, R3 non-step Caps Lock with smoky windows to further align with the dark aesthetic
- Added 2x 1u Spacebars, 1.25u spacebar, 6u centered spacebar
- Added BAE
- Added novelty R1 1u Cosmic Cherry icon
Meteorites - Blanks:
- 15 blanks of Cosmos R1-R4
- Do with them whatever you’d like.
- So many people wanted blanks and many wanted macros compatibility, this should satisfy both!
Cosmic Lexicon - Standard European Kit:
- Taking advantage of GMK's new offering with a low 50 MOQ
- I hope the European community takes advantage of this. Share and ask for support so vendors and designers continue offering compatibility for you.
Extras
- The GB date has been locked! September 15 to October 20
- The IC form is updated and will help us gauge current interest!
- It is very important to understand what everyone is interested in.
- please fill and share with everyone!
What's next?
- Cosmic Collaborations!
- Lots of really good collabs are in the works. Stay tuned.
- Interested in a collab? Please reach out to me :)
