DCS Guardian

I suck at writing descriptions, have a neat beige set in DCS profile with Cherry legends lol
Changes to the kitting of course are very likely to happen as there's definitely bound to be things I was not aware of with DCS with Cherry legends

Why not Gorton/Wyse legends? idk i didn't think they looked good on this set

I'd appreciate if you could fill out the IC Form as well, click here to fill it out!

If you need to contact me you can do it either through here or on Discord, you can find me there as Sax#2295

Nice set weeb

I like it, definitely buying it, hiragana subs would be nice but not a necessity

Fraaaan · « **Reply #8 on:** Sun, 13 March 2022, 05:07:59 »

ne ISO novelty?

nvh2092 · « **Reply #9 on:** Sun, 13 March 2022, 05:12:28 »

Please consider novelties for iso enter

Sax_______ · « **Reply #10 on:** Sun, 13 March 2022, 12:46:07 »

Seeing as I have been getting some questions regarding 40s support.

I will absolutely add it, I hadn't done so yet since there was some stuff regarding it I was checking, but do not worry, even if it's the bare minimum I will add support for it.

Please consider an Indian vendor.

Belled · « **Reply #12 on:** Sun, 13 March 2022, 15:02:13 »

you should add a ñ to your base set

CraftonosKeyboards · « **Reply #13 on:** Sun, 13 March 2022, 15:52:59 »

I don’t normally like sets with lots of colors, but I have to say that is pretty awesome.

pixelpusher · « **Reply #14 on:** Sun, 13 March 2022, 16:16:10 »

Colors are pleasant. I'm not familiar with the reference if the novelties allude to something, but I do like them. At first glance I was thinking it was Clash of the Titans set

Pensa73 · « **Reply #15 on:** Sun, 13 March 2022, 16:59:45 »

Beige I see, beige I buy

NoUbell · « **Reply #16 on:** Sun, 13 March 2022, 18:18:01 »

Beige hurts my wallet.

Sax_______ · « **Reply #17 on:** Sun, 13 March 2022, 19:15:50 »

Quick update:

4 Key 40s added to base with row 2 esc and 1.75u backspace as well as row 3 1.25u tab and 1.5u enter

Update:

Added 10u space bar for two reasons:

1- why the hell not

2- people (surprisingly) asked for it

bigmaxnonions · « **Reply #21 on:** Tue, 15 March 2022, 00:21:39 »

Is this based on the movie 'Legend of the Guardians: Owls of Ga'Hoole' by chance? It was the first thing I thought of when I saw the owls lol. Really like the colors too!

Are all the colors stock? And if or if not what are they

Currently only the alphas are a stock color, using SP's WV
The rest are all RAL colors but I am currently trying to find an alternative for three of the colors used in SPs stock colors, the other two will have to stay RAL as i already confirmed there's nothing that matches them closely.

Well as the title now says, the set will go on group buy on August the 8th

Pricing will be available a couple of weeks before the GB date.

pixelpusher · « **Reply #27 on:** Sat, 18 June 2022, 20:13:48 »

Again, really like the colors. I believe I’ll join the group buy.

Did you ever talk about the set theme somewhere? Searching around it seems like it’s inspired by Nanashi Mumei, but I don’t know anything about her 😐

Neely_12 · « **Reply #28 on:** Sat, 18 June 2022, 22:20:00 »

I feel like an accent caps lock would be a perfect addition. Would be symmetrical with the accent enter and different colored mods.

Sax_______ · « **Reply #29 on:** Mon, 27 June 2022, 22:39:17 »

Pictures of the HIBI keycap have been added

Sax_______ · « **Reply #30 on:** Wed, 27 July 2022, 22:21:10 »

Small update for the literal 2 people who will care:

Updated ISO enter to conform with SP DCS limitations:

Old Enter key

New Enter key

Gerevala · « **Reply #31 on:** Thu, 28 July 2022, 05:54:36 »

please add some iso enter in novelties.

Now SP's future is unsure, is there any plan for switching manufacturer to others like KKB, MW, ... atm?

The group buy has run. The keycaps are already produced. There are extras on Prototypist and DeskHero. ThockKeys just started shipping these out last week. There will be some extras there most likely as well.
