Nah it's definitely Dolch

But in all seriousness this is pretty. Though perhaps the rune alphas could use some more contrast.

Looks fantastic!

Any plan to add some novelty keys? And possibly a separate mods kit (so that those of us who are only interested in the mono alphas don't need to shell out more $$$ for the base kit)?

GLWIC!

Hell, I love runic legends. I love PBT. This is top tier.

Just don’t know how I feel about the white-on-blue mono runes kit. Have you tried with dark legends? It lacks too much contrast to me, like it’s drawing my eyes to the mod text instead. If it was icon mods only, maybe, but I think dark would be better here.

Out of curiosity, what board has a standard layout where End is in R1, outside of boards that have numpads?

I've seen people use it for the right side of 65% and 75% boards, from what i've seen it usually goes:
DEL
PGUP
PGDN

My apologies; I was getting the row numbering backwards. Yes, an End key in the shift row is absolutely common.

This set is missing R3 PgUp, R4 PgDn keys for 65% support (https://i.imgur.com/tKSXZLN.png). These keys should be added to the base kit based on the popularity of 65% layouts in the community.

Accent-colored R2 Esc is not a strictly necessary key and as such can be removed from the base kit.

Since proper spacekeys are included in the base kit, the usefulness of the second 2.25u Shift is relegated to physical support for 660 layouts, which are quite rare nowadays. Therefore, the second 2.25u Shift should be moved from base to the extensions kit.

As a final note, I don't think that including a full set of macro keys in the extensions kit is a good idea. It bloats the price of the kit while not providing that much extra utility. Consider: a) splitting them out into a separate kit, b) reducing the number of columns down to two (two columns is still useful for covering ortho boards (https://i.imgur.com/YMbhgUX.png)), or c) dropping them altogether.

Moving the shift is a good point. 65% boards can be kitted perfectly with the base kit as is but I'll consider adding the additional keys. As for the macros and r2 esc, those are something I'm not willing to compromise on personally, thank you for the suggestions though

In that case, moving the Shift and adding the two additional keys (essentially swapping out 2.25u for 2u) should be the way to go.
