Title: [IC] GMK Vintage
Post by: Nonnegaard on Tue, 10 December 2019, 02:26:04
Added IC form!
https://forms.gle/Qx8kSU4gLDXfyTXk6

This is an idea that i have had for a bit of time now, so therefore i present to you: GMK Vintage!
Maybe change the name to Yellowed instead of Vintage, i don't know yet.

Anyway, this kit will combine the yellowed keycaps of the past with the precision German engineering of today. The inspiration is Proji Keeb Look's Apple M0110-A
He put a Vortex ViBe in it, and i thought; Man, SA Vilebloom is cool and all, but its just not there. So i looked up some pictures of the Apple M0110-A to reference, found the closest matching Pantone and GMK colors and made this. Here we go:

One kit includes pantone colors:
-Legends: GMK CR
-Alphas: Pantone 403 C
-Spacebar: Pantone 4256 C

If the set doesnt get so popular, this kit only uses GMK/Uniqey colors:
-Legends: GMK CR
-Alphas: GMK 2B
-Spacebar: GMK BJ

Of course this set is not near finished, and its just a rough idea so far, so let me know what you think!

I like this and all but if we’re basing it on vintage themes wouldn’t it also be better to use one instead

Oops, sorry. Auto-correct got the best of me this morning apparently. I meant to say PBT as most vintage sets are done in PBT anyhow.

Also thanks!  ;D

How long does it take for sets to pick up? Im willing to put a lot of effort into this, but it doesnt seem that many people like the idea. Might close it down.

Stuff like this requires more effort to be seen as something worthwhile.

Renders and stuff are usually added in to supplement.
