INTEREST FORM (https://forms.gle/ZWbMeCSTXDxk9GiLA) | WEBSITE (https://oceansetups.my.canva.site/barnowl)



Hello and thank you for checking out the IC for Tomocaps - Barn Owl

I always wanted to create a minimalistic purple on white set. One day I made some sketches of polygon animals and found that owls look very cool, inspiring me to create this design of muted colours reflecting the subtlety of this silent predator. Combining modern art with nature.

The deskmats look really clean.

Hey ana this is really cute! For people who like pastel purples or lavender this will be a great option. The deskmats are also cute and can stand on their own (but I'm hoping the final print versions don't have the "oceansetups" branding).

A few thoughts on kitting. Right now your 3 key 40s support forces an accent enter, but has no accent R2 esc. I recommend either adding the accent R2 esc or making the enter mod-colored. Also numpad 00 is unlikely to meaningfully increase the cost of this kit since it's already so large, so I'd consider adding it. The novelties have a solid number of options for being part of the base kit, though you could cut 1 or 2 of the accent 1us if you need to trim.

My only other recommendation is personal-preference based: to vertically center caps-lock and shift icons. Since you're working in dyesub there's nothing forcing the GMK-style placement.

Hey, thanks for your feedback. I understand your point and I wish I had more options but this is what I can do due to the manufacturer's restrictions.
The 40s accent enter is a thing which can be change and I will ask some of my friends who use a lot of 40s boards - since I don't have any experience with 40s yet. But thats a good point! Thank you.

Regarding kitting, split numpad plus and f13 support is also missing.

I didn't realize people actually preferred dixie mods but I definitely don't. :rolleyes: :(

Agreed that the f13 support should be added. Whether numpad should be split comes down to quotes and MOQ system imo.

It's not dixie mods specifically, rather more consistent legend placement. GMK's legends are an inconsistent mess. Some people like that inconsistency, some don't. As I said, it's personal preference.

Definitely interested. Would be lovely if you also offered purple arrow keys to go with the enter key.
