Those colors are not related to Porsche but to GULF : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulf_Canada

For example here is a ford GT40:


Also you might want to add more compatibility to your keyset

Nice. I really like the concept. I think the caps should change to like "downshift, upshift, drink, bb+" instead of honk, etc. Like use real racing terms.

I really like the colorway, but the color of the nav keys legends are kinda hard to read

Is there a reason all of the blue keys above the arrows have orange legends and not black?

GMK LE MANS

Original model by Dakota Felder

This keycap set, inspired by auto racing, features contrasting colors of powder blue and intense orange.  The name comes from the 24 Hours of Le Mans, in which the colors, associated with Gulf Oil, became popular.

As a GMK set, these keycaps would be doubleshot ABS, cherry profile.
Colors are CR and WS1 for black and white, and custom colors for blue and orange.

Assorted alternate keys, in progress

Images are in progress for alternate colors, novelties, and support for other layouts.
As this is not a licensed product, certain references are omitted in order to avoid copyright issues.
Feedback and suggestions are appreciated.

Edited for clarity.

GMK Gulf would be a way more accurate name for this. Since it is the gulf livery and all...

- I like the colour scheme, this has great potential for awesome novelties and icon modifiers for car lovers.

- Look at the other sets and add the extra keys for compatibility (stepped caps and differing sizes)

- Matching deskmat would be awesome too.

Very much here for this, although the kit needs more work. I'd love to see more blue on alphas, and orange alphas in the middle.  Lots of space to be creative with this colorway, might actually be a good KAT candidate.

It certainly would, as long as it doesn't violate copyright.  A licensed set would have to sell at a significantly higher price, much like the Star Wars set.

Wow.

I really really dig those colors.
I think there are endless possibilities for nice Novelties.
For a first render to get the scheme across, this is nice.
I think we don't have to talk about compatibility for now, since it is just not present.
I am looking forward to see what you have in store...

The inspiration for this set is a really good one, but this IC really needs a lot more work.
