Hey everyone!

May I present you KDS Airborne, the set I've been working on!
As you can see, it is inspired by everything that has something to do with flying.
Still, you might be asking what is KDS, so let me introduce you to Kono Designer Series!
I hope you like it!

The GB date was set for May 10th, so there are only a few days to wait!

Regarding the price, yeah it's right, the PRICE, there is something more different than other sets,
because the whole set was quoted as a single kit! That means each buyer,
for only $79.99 USD (North America price) will receive all the kits mentioned below!

Creative idea although I'm not much one for the military industrial complex or a war set
That said I think the novelties leave a little bit to be desired. Keep up the great work and GLWIC

Looks like Pacific mashed with Striker, and a touch of BoW. Have I done it right master?

kitting looks good, but I'm going to have to echo the sentiment that the novelties aren't particularly inspired. not particularly sure thematically how they could be better though. glwic all the same.

I was actually messing around, don't really see it either, but the comment I quoted was trolling, so I followed suit

Improving the novelties was one of my tasks since the beginning, but I wanted to know what should I exactly change. Thank you for your comment! This will help me a lot

I suppose the 1.25 and 1.5u in R3 are for R4 mods? Also, those 2 R4 2.25u are same keys so I also suppose you want it to be ansi enter key and not left shift.

Yes, that's right. The 1.25 and 1.5u are for R4 mods and the 2.25 caps are enter keys. Should I place the mods in R4 and the enter caps in R3?

In my opinion bars suit the best, regarding either design or feel
