Thank you. Maybe there aren't many beautiful colors can choose. ;D

It's not MaxKey's fault, is it? I think MaxKey can make uniform R3 sets, no problem, it's just that nobody wants to run them ;)

I like this a lot, cool colorway.

Any chance for an ortho kit, pretty please? ;)

Wish this set to happen in SP.
The grey bottom would definitely be more charming.

That's probably true, but I've yet to see an R3 set from MaxKey.  The driving factor is $, there aren't enough uniform-kit converts yet! (though there are DOZENS of us, DOZENS!) 

Sorry to diverge the thread, I'll still keep an eye on this good-looking set! Maybe just as a showpiece and the occasional reminder that sculpted sets aren't for me.

I'll be watching this IC closely... though I am very broke  :))
With so many color and novelty options on each section of the keyboard, would you consider splitting the alphas and the mods and the nav cluster?

Thank you for your love. I believe MAXKEY's SA is very cost-effective, so don't worry about it. I think KITS is very meticulous now,so,,all in please~ :-*

Thank you for your attention. The inspiration for colorway can be found in the aircraft armor in [district 9],Some patterns from [phantom pain],The whole concept comes from the form of virtual games, such as virtual glasses and pixelized skeletons, which represent false death and life.
I hope you can understand me, because English is not my mother tongue.

Maxkey can do ISO now, i'd probably get that set if ISO UK was available.

I have to admit that it's similar, and I found it after finished. But when I tried to change the color, I found that there was no more suitable color matching for the theme. In fact, only yellow was the same color card. Fortunately, this design would be more distinct.

Would you consider doing a yellow base with the number row instead of the white/grey/beige base in reverse? I think it'd look much nicer.

Thank you for your advice. I tried, but it's not good-looking, because yellow is more reasonable as a minority embellishment.

Super nice set that would have been great on my gaming keyboard, however I can't game with that profile. Alas, might still get it because of the great novelties.

I get that we can't have uniform R3, so absent that, any chance for a Colevrak kit? Lack of them is what keeps me away from MaxKey sets currently, which is a shame because they have some good colorways.

Post by: donutcat on Wed, 25 September 2019, 01:52:20
One thing I'm not getting about some of the recent Maxkeys sets to pop up, why are they split up like an SP set? Personally I thought one of the benefits of Maxkeys sets was the "all in one" GMK-style base kits that were being done with no concerns of what may or may not hit an MOQ and ruin your loadout. This was especially nice at Maxkeys' pricing range.

maybe it's because Colevrak is less popular.

Thank you.  your advice is very scientific, but it may be more suitable for a simpler design.  look at my other design,https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=102424.0 (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=102424.0)

To support HHKB layout with black mods, the upgrade or opposite kit would needs some 1.5 ctrl and alt mods. The white upgrade kit has them, would be cool to mirror this in black too.

In fact, black is an extra design, originally only light color.

Sure, just wanted to point it out, as HHKB is a common layout. I like the all black look and the missing keys are then the reason for me not to buy.

Due to the requests of many 1800MINI users, in particular, 1.25U SHIFT has been added to the upgrade package. All details will be disclosed at GB time. The specific time is yet to be determined, just recently.
