Nice. I like the alpha base and legend colours in particular, and the inclusion of a 40s base kit. GLWIC!

Novelties pls  :)

working on them, just refining some things. It was a bit hard to come up with novelties that are pluto specific. Currently, I think I have all the signs and symbols that represent something about pluto or pluto itself (god and planet). Any other suggestions are welcome.

Hmm. ePBT Hellas somehow also got compared to godspeed, I get this is a bit closer with the theme, but it is still a different blue and different alpha's. Almost all blue mod sets get compared to godspeed at this point.

Is the Pantone 7461 U on accents confirmed? Cos the renders seem to be darker (it's nice) than what Pantone shows.

7461u are the mods. The pantone color on the pantone site is not very accurate, the hue is pretty similar, but it is definitely brighter than on my pantone book.
To be fair, the kitting renders are, even after brightening them, still a bit dark. But the color in the renders is still closer to real life than the one listed on the pantone site.
But even then, everyone's monitor displays color differently, especially non-calibrated. The new board renders that I will be doing are going to be in different lighting situations that will slightly change the color and hopefully give people a good medium of what the color is going to look like.

Consider trimming the 2x1.5u spacebars in 40s kit, they are basically never used. Same thing for the second 2.25 spacebar, there are no boards currently that use two (I know you rendered on one, but it's currently on indefinite hiatus). Otherwise, super comprehensive kitting.

I like that you rendered on a couple of 40s, though I would have liked to see a full size / 1800 to see how the numpad looks. The candybar is nice but looks weird without the R1 mods on top.

Nice set / good IC otherwise imo.

I second everything he said.

In addition, I would like to point out that the R4 ;: key in the NorDe kit is incorrect and should be changed to ,;. This is a common mistake in kits based on older versions of KRK.

I also think that a R1 1u = key would be a nice addition to the numpad kit.

One final, minor thing: consider changing the R3 1.75u Control key's legend to an icon (). The text legend can look out of place next to the surrounding icon-only mods. The icon ensures a cleaner, more consistent look in my opinion. (comparison (https://i.imgur.com/ngbaQa9.png), example in kit (https://i.imgur.com/8JNOvU5.jpg))

thanks so much for the feedback. Will change the norde kit mistake and i agree with the control key legend.

I will check the 40's kitting spacebars, but i mostly got advised by other people and i don't have much knowledge on 40's.

Just quoting this to highlight the issue, lots of sets suffer on European boards from this mistake making it to GB frequently! Please fix! :)
