Title: [IC] EPBT Flaming Ice - Because it's there
Post by: ALOHAKB on Tue, 09 May 2023, 02:21:22
Have a nice day, everyone
This is ALOHAKB factory&vendor
I'd like to introduce the keycaps of Flaming Ice
(https://i.imgur.com/KqP64KY.jpg)

Background
The Flaming Ice keycap designed by SJC and manufactured by EPBT. The design inspiration comes from Meili Snow Mountain.
 Some people say that seeing the golden mountain in sunshine will bring you luck for a whole year.
I hope it can bring luck to everyone. The main body of Flaming Ice keycap uses rock black, the mod kit uses snow mountain blue,
 and the accent kit is to highlight the golden mountain of sunlight. Then adopted the standard Tibetan script.

The Flaming Ice keycaps are already in production. The purpose of releasing the IC is to hear your ideas.
 Welcome to leave your valuable suggestions in the comment area.

I love the concept, the alphas look flame like with the ice. But it needs tweeking. I don't like anything else, the bluish or the orange doesn't fit with the theme and looks more like a highschool tacky sports uniform.

I would have thought flaming ice was more like a bar tender flaming up a cocktail with ice.

Anyways just my quick thoughts.

In your 40s kit: r3 1.75 should be backspace, not enter. Instead of r3 1.25u tab and control just have one r3 1.25 backspace.
Maybe an ortho user can chime in as to the 1u keys and their row profiles.

Oh, thank you, my friend, you have saved me from a fatal mistake, and I will correct these wrong keys and modify them to the correct ones. Thank you very much!

Hey,

I think your discord hyperlink is broken, takes me to imgur instead.

Please add my discord, Luke!#8865

I'd love to discuss a metal artisan keycap collaboration for your set. Trust me you'll want to hear about my offerings :)

If you wish to support full ISO-UK, please replace R1 <> with \| as is correct for that position. <> is only used on terminal ISO, not ISO-UK.

Good luck with this.

Would look best IMO if orange was used as a subtle accent color only with the blue and black theme dominating.  Looks like that might be possible with the modifiers options but it'd be nice to see that in one or two renders as well.

Even in dyesub your sub-legends are too thin.

Your novelties are all different line weights and do not feel consistent style wise. This is probably due to the fact that you pulled them from random creators on the Noun Project instead of working with a designer to create a unified style.
