(or the numpad keys 1...9).
Mix'n'match the 6 colours as you like!
Or did you ever have a Rubik's Cube in it's pristine order (OK, the day you bought it :) ).

Always in for a mixed Esc pack
I like it! Can't say no to more Esc caps

Thanks for the support and feedback!
Much more apropriate would be the cluster

That is a fairly interesting idea, thank you for the feedback!
Yellow and white don't mix well...
Although it does not look great in the render, I have the colour samples, and the colour combination looks much better and more visible in real life. If there is enough support to change the legend to black, then that can be changed no problem. Thank you for the feedback.

I'd be interested. In the future, could you do other colors as well? It's a shame I missed out on other great ESC packs. :(
For this Esc Key Pack I wont be adding any other colours. Which colours would you like to see in the future?

I'd love to see white on red, like the ones on a honeywell keyboard.

Oh no, apologies, I didn't mean any additionals for this set. It's great the way it is!
I meant other ESC packs in the future, like the Cyan on Magenta, maybe even Black on White, White on Black, Purple on Beige, etc. I would love a whole F row of different ESC keys someday! :D
Edit: White on Red looks fantastic as well! But the cherry red, not the odd standard orange red.

I will definitely make a note of this suggestion, and will consider these colours for future packs. Thanks!

This is an interesting idea. Would you want R1 and R2 to have 6 Keycaps each (1 per colour)? Or would you just want 3 x R1 and 3 x R2, with 3 colours being one 1 Row, and 3 colours being assigned to another?

Personally, I'd enjoy one single cluster with six different colours.
Ok, so only 6 keys?
Post by: CAPS UNLOCKED on Wed, 18 January 2017, 14:22:31
Sigh, just bought the Esc pack with CP on AE yesterday then this popped up. Trying to match with GMK WoB and some AE mods, so this pack using WS1 instead of CP is something I would probably buy.
Thanks for the support and feedback! :)

Just 3 per row - a cluster of 6.
Or the NUM keys 1...9 - the Rubik's cube has 9 slices on each side.

Any preference as to which colours you would want on R1 and R2?
The keycaps would have to be blank, so you can rotate their positions, just like a Rubik's Cube. This is a really interesting idea.

The colours will be the same as the ones in the OP, however I was asking whether you wanted to see any particular colours on R1 and R2. But if you have no preference then that is fine.

Apologies for the late reply. Thank you for the feedback! I think this is an interesting idea, and if there is enough support for it, then I will definitely consider changing this from an ESC pack to 3xR1 and 3xR2 Keycaps.

I will definitely consider changing this from an ESC pack to 3xR1 and 3xR2 Keycaps.Why not both? Esc packs are always warmly welcomed.

Side note, I wouldn't be against GB's for accent packs that match popular colors from Esc pack. i.e. an enter, arrow keys, and numpad enter in Green AE and White WS1 :thumb: or something similar in idea and low cost.

Questions: How do I create a new Group Buy post? I am unable to do so at the moment.
Post by: TalkingTree on Tue, 28 February 2017, 08:28:21
I have changed the colour of the legends on the yellow key, to black.Much better now.
I have decided to change "AE" to "N7".Good as well, a darker green would look better.

I have a production timeline and quote from GMK. The lead time for the set will be about 12 weeks.
