Vendors:
US: projectkeyboard
EU: mykeyboard
Notes:
Set is using custom color
Pretty sure I missed some keys for compatibility, let me know - some keys were omitted like convex 2u since numpad 2u can be used.
Need to re-render nebula as polycarb is a bit tricky.
More renders coming soon.
Thanks for looking

how about in PBT?
If legends aren't of relevance here, why not PBT or a different ABS manufacturer?
If there is a manufacturer that can offer the same color matching expertise, no warping, and correct stem then sure. I'm open to explore other options.
What will the custom color be like? Any sort of comparisons?
I'll take some photos of some swatches I picked out in the morning against stock color gmk caps.

as a person of colour, why are these all off white?
The name is a double entendre of the lack of legends, accents, etc. The term "nude" is also commonly used in the fashion industry for pale shades mixed of white, brown, and pink. I am also a PoC and don't see the name of this keyset racially/ethnically offensive.

Might also need 1800/CP support for this. I'm not sure the keys cover for that.
Looks like it does for R1 and R2, and you can use the R3 ISO 1u for the 1u numpad+, but if you use ISO you can't use it there. Might be worth considering a spare R3 1u in with the numpad to cover that like, 1% use case.
Also came here to say numpad in base plx :P For something like this those keys in the split off kit are gonna cost probs over twice as much with the per-kit costs, vs the like ≤$15 for having it in base and the potential utility.

I would be in favor of one big base kit. Makes it so much easier.

them homing keys better be nipples
lol the original render had nipples.
I'm usually a fan of splitting off numpad, but for a set like this total keys should be down so I think it makes sense to make everything one big base kit.
i prefer having numpad in base will add updated questions to the ic form to see what the community thinks

Will there be a novelties pack? A few pink dots and a pink asterisk maybe?
Get permission to use the GMK Dots molds and make a couple dark pink dot keys for R3 for F and J. Big brain novelties right there.
Edit: only issue would that you're adding another color to the set which would increase the cost to that of the average two color set, probably not worth it.

Oh my. I really hope the question was meant as a stab at the extreme political correctness disease and not seriously. The correct response would have been "as a person of colour, why are these all off white?

True, with GMK, and I hate that. I don't think we need this to be GMK...

But numpad 2u is concave, so it's not a proper replacement...

No. See bullet points belowIf legends aren't of relevance here, why not PBT or a different ABS manufacturer?
Because keebs are lemmings and if it doesn’t start with GMK it won’t bring home the bacon.
Some people might just want GMK blanks. They still feel and sound better than JTK (who, by the way, won't make blanks after Red Riot), and I don't know of anyone else who even makes ABS Cherry-profile at all.This
That said, I won't be opposed to this coming out in PBT. I like PBT. But I might be up for some handsome-looking GMK blanks as well, depending on the price.
Thanks for all the feedback! Appreciate the interest in this set :)
Reasons for why I choose GMK:
- Proven RAL color matching.
- Don't like JTK texture.
- Don't like how JTK sounds.
- JTK won't do blanks (see Red Riot).
- ePBT warping in longer keys.
- ePBT stem is longer, which makes them sit higher (see side shots of keyboards with ePBT caps).
- ePBT homing keys have BOTH bar and scoop on a single cap.
The decision is not based on the manufacturer name or material (might even prefer PBT). It's just that GMK currently checks all these boxes.

I would love to buy a complete genuine GMK set of blanks regardless of the colour, but this particular tone is a great choice. It is both distinctive and original while remaining pleasingly neutral, and it has a really strong theme. I really hope this runs.
