"LV" novelties?

Izeri · « **Reply #51 on:** Mon, 11 January 2021, 08:19:33 »

I'm going to make a proper update next week, for now I'm letting you know that I've got a channel in Mechs&Co (a8XpG9R) and Thic Thock (5kCVk9q) discord servers, so you can leave a feedback there if you'd like to!

Volterra · « **Reply #52 on:** Fri, 29 January 2021, 05:40:08 »

So when is the update?

Izeri · « **Reply #55 on:** Fri, 29 January 2021, 09:47:59 »

I made few changes in this update:
- Due the popular demand I switched legends to be icons+text, I changed my mind and now I think they fit better with the set, I'm still not a fan of that Caps Lock though
- Reworked novelties
- I matched colors, so now renders are more accurate
- Added F13 in Base for better support to some layouts
- Added Tab in Latin only kit so that a second board can be covered
- Added 1u Back in 40s kit
- Added 6u off-centered in Spacebars kit
- Removed 1.25 Enter in 40s kit
- Changed / and * in numpad with ÷ and ×
- Updated all renders

As you can see, I adjusted some novelties to make them look better, I also added a stylized octopus because I think it's a nice inclusion, however I'm not going any further and make any direct reference to the inspiration.
While I still haven't asked GMK for a quote, I do believe that the pricing on the novelties kit as it is right now may be too high and prohibitive, because of that I'm quite sure I'll have to remove few accents I think will be less popular. I added a question on the IC Form just for that, so I can understand what's the general opinion about this, so please leave a feedback.
Talking about the deskmat, I'm still thinking about making one at all.
And finally, I'm happy to announce that Rocket Cables and I came up with a custom cable collab, I'll give more informations about that in the future.

Sorry if its been stated already, but will these caps be PBT?

EDIT: Also any chance we can get a mod coloured spacebar set?

To my knowledge, GMK only produces keycaps in ABS Cherry, so I believe the caps would be ABS, and not PBT

Since it's GMK, it's going to be Cherry ABS Double Shot as mirubere said

The novelties you see right now are final, except for a couple of tweaks I'm doing.

I'm not planning to add neither of them, I'd like to keep it reasonably priced as it is a child kit and has it's own MOQ to hit. I'm sorry about that.

Frayne · « **Reply #69 on:** Thu, 04 March 2021, 14:00:28 »

The color swatches (blue purple) is actually very different from the magenta purple (pink purple) in the renders, is that intentional?

I compared my renders to the physical color swatch, meanwhile on the "Colors" image I used the hex RAL provides for that color. Hope that helps, I'll check them again though

I am willing to pay more if needed for an official licensed product, the set is really nice!

I know this took a while, but here's the update:
Due new GMK guidelines I decided to change the theme of this set, now it's octopus inspired. This lead to few novelties changes and removals.
There are also a couple of kitting updates. I decided to drop accented arrows in base to allow native support for 40%, without having to rely on a child kit which may not hit MOQ.
I also reduced the spacebars kit to aim for a better price overall. The GB date has also been pushed back from May to June and the set will have zFrontier as CN vendor.
I refined the novelties removing less popular accents (~70% votes agreed to that) and revisiting the 2.25 enter tentacle and the 1u Kanji to make them look more polished.
There will also be a deskmat running with the set and a collaboration with Asero Foundry for a metal artisan, of which there may be a proto pic soon.

EDIT: Novelties have been revisited further and more changes were made.

I still think that if you just remove the aurora on the tako's head it would be fine since it's just a cute silhouette of a tako, nonetheless I am still buying the set, it's still really good

I understand that, but I preferred removing it completely to avoid potential problems

Izeri · « **Reply #81 on:** Sat, 27 March 2021, 16:28:57 »

I decided to opt for a less saturated orange accent, it increases the readability and fits better with the mods. I also updated all the renders accordingly and fixed the sublegend thickness issue.

I'm not sure if I understood that correctly, are you saying that the top right sublegend on 0 should be removed? Because the sublegends I'm using should be the ones proposed by Zambumon
