[IC] GMK Kura
« on: Sun, 24 March 2024, 09:01:31 »


Kura is my love letter to the springtime, when the cherry blossoms bloom back home in Korea.


The set utilises stock GMK colours, with the classic beige L9 and not-often-seen 3C.

Mogu by Logan (me!)

Whimsy by PRKNS

OGR by AKB

Haus by Hand Engineering

Phoenix by Cable Car Designs

Vendors:
If you're an interested vendor, please DM me here for my contact info, or find me on Discord.

To-do:
Collect feedback on kitting.
The base kit is pretty large and inclusive, but there may be things worth putting in an add-on kit or adding to the base kit.
I'm considering moving the numpad to an add-on kit in the interest of lowering base kit price.
Feel free to let me know your thoughts on the form or here.

Explore options with manufacturers.
I'm not married to this set being GMK, so if it comes to it I'd be interested in working with a different manufacturer.

Notes:
Thanks to lampmk, chu, shiny, and AVX Works for your feedback, as well as the wider NEKB server.

Please leave feedback in the form or here!

I like the simplicity. I do think it could use just one novelty or even a metal artisan collab of a simplified sakura petal

Just a heads up, you can't kit out Whimsey with your set (needs a 1.25u r3 enter), and your 1.75u backspace should be r2, while your 1.25u tab should be r3.

Thank you for catching that! I'll switch it out for a different board. I just really like seeing mono sets on 40s so I added it without much thought. ;D

I agree! I would really love to make a cherry blossom novelty (that doesn't look like the one that comes with AliExpress sets lol) or a metal artisan, but I left it out for now until I am 100% sure I can make one with whichever manufacturer the set (hopefully) runs with.

Oops, haha meant to swap it out for F13. Nice catch. New, more colour-accurate renders have it fixed!

In. I like this because UK keys in base is that type of thing which I do like.

L9 is SO overdone. would you consider switching to WS4? I feel like cream white would fit the theme better

another induction to the Peaches n Cream-iverse. Not that I'm complaining, 3C is an awesome color. The other suggestion of WS4 might be worth looking into afterall

Very nice pairing with stock colors! Please add a 1u R3 pipe key to both bases and the Hangul kit, and an R2 Esc to the 40's addon for better compatibility :thumb: Could the 40's mods be icon-only instead of icon+text to match the regular modifiers?
