I'm really loving the light blue tone of the keycaps. Super clean. Also, totally would go for hangeul kit if there was one. I want to see the novelties!!!!
Also sorry, but I'm just going to have to say something about the Haneul desk mat. I'm reading it and it feels like the designer maybe got a really cool Korean quote and put it through Google translate, or something like that? I put the text through google translate, and it comes up as "The clouds are no longer accompanied by rain and wind, and are colored in the sky." I know you mentioned it was based off a short poem, but I read it while trying really hard to understand what it means, at least in the Korean text.
Other than that, I look forward to seeing in GB soon.
The grammar and spacing has been corrected and I added in the rough translation (as directly translating from korean to english doesn't really work).

Looks really nice!  What does the text say on the haneul deskmat?
It's a short poem that roughly translates to "Clouds no longer carry rain or storms, it carries color to the sky"

I did a quick search but couldn't find any reference. Is this an existing poem? It's grammatically incorrect and where are the spacings?

And second for hangul sublegend.
Has been fixed now! Thanks for pointing that out

I've decided not to do a hangul kit for this set. Hopefully a set in the future will be themed after something korean so a hangul kit would actually make sense.

I like this set! Hope you can get an SEA vendor like ilumkb or monokei. Kibou is based in Hong Kong and that's not in SEA, not sure if the shipping charges will be actually affordable for SEA customers!

I have confirmed with the vendor, shipping will not be any different, in fact the rates from HK to SEA regions are actually very cheap.

Sorry don’t quite like the novelties. They are quite hard to use too, for the 1u R1-4. That’s usually for the last column of a 65% keyboard, and every icon looks almost the same.

Reiterating the idea of a hangul sub legends alpha kit.

I'm aware of the roles of the 1us, I just thought that it looked good to have them lined up like that in a row even if it's not the most traditional common thing. I'm still experimenting with some other novelty concepts at the moment though, so may I ask what exact novelty designs you would like to see there? I have also decided not to do a hangul kit. Thanks for the feedback.

I'm not the person to whom you addressed but I think it'd be better to have a sun peeking outside of a cloud or or a lightning within a cloud, sorry for my bad english tho.

I agree with the post previously… a couple of weather patterns could work here, sun, rain, lightning, etc. I'll be using these as 1.5u Super + extra 1u alts as the base nor the icon kitting fits my usage here for HHKB bottom row.

Novelties have been revised! Some other people also recommended me this type of stuff in the server, so it has been changed to the best of my ability (and GMK tolerances).

I still dont think the novelties are "up there" yet (pun intended). Clouds are a pretty hard theme to do tho so its fine I suppose. Looking forward to a cool metal enter artisan with that wind pattern.  :thumb:

Edit: a bunch of those basic cloud novelties for XT column would be cool tho imo

1. super nice colorway
2. super nice novelties (only just seeing them now so no idea of the previous version)
3. avoid hangul subs since they have no actual connection with the concept - deskmat is fine
4. mizu color comparison please

Good start on the novelties, I think.
Suggestions I'd have is that the rainbow just seems like it leads to no where?
Also, on the 1.5Us inside points of the foreground cloud sort of merge with the line from the background cloud.

Is there any chance of 1.5U OS/diamond keys in the icon kit or 1.5u Supers?

Thanks for coming back for more advice. As for the rainbow on the 1.25, the left one has a rainbow leading to the right and the right one has a rainbow leading to the left so it kind of leads to each other/connects in a way. Thanks for pointing that out on the 1.5s. I will probably be removing a small space between them to make them stand out seperately more. Same for the moon and thunder ones. Also, I will not be adding a 1.5u OS key in the icons kit or a 1.5u super, apologies. Thank you for the feedback.

I just realize that the design between the moon and sun novelty is not consistent. I think if the sun gets covered partially by the cloud then the moon should be as well, it's weird to see the cloud stay behind the moon like that.

Good looking set with good looking kits! I dig it.

The spacebars kit is probably going to end up a bit on the expensive side, though. I think you could've forgone the small spacekeys in black (1.25c, 2c, 2.25c, 2.75c) without too much detriment to the buyer or the overall usefulness of the kit.

I also would've taken the opportunity to add either two 1.5u keys or a second 1.5u key to the icons kit, for Mac / OG HHKB bottom row users. Another approach would be to make the two 1.5u keys instead, for greater flexibility with legends.

But these are minor things. Overall, the set looks really good.
