Travel back to the 1950s–60s golden age of retro-futurism. The Space Race, satellites and moon landings sparked universal hopeful fantasies of space.

AWWW! I have exactly the same ideas about retro-futurism as you! But you did a fantastic job, and I wish you GLWIC!
I wanted to share an idea in mind, since retro-futuristic furniture has a lot of chrome and glossy finishes, perhaps you could try to incorporate some related elements? Maybe use some of the glossy keycaps from KBS Heyball?
-
Minor nitpick, but the 1.75u R4 Caps Lock should just read Lock instead.
glwic!

This is indeed an error. But it was specified by KBS's two‑color mold, so it probably cannot be modified.

I have this idea, but as far as I know, KBS's high‑light keycaps can only be fully silk‑printed, and their sales volume is not good. I am worried about the moq.

It's up to you, man. If it suits your theme better, then give it a try. Interesting to have different surface finishes in my opinion. ;D

I have never seen a KBS set in my life, do we know how they fare against the other main ABS manus in terms of texture/sound? GLWIC!

Their sounds tend to be clear and crisp.https://www.instagram.com/p/DccsHSxyFDU/

THis is a cool colourway re-imagined. Classic, Grey / cream / orange combo works well. Fun novelties. Good luck with the IC :)

The layout has been adjusted based on the KBS mold rules and the comprehensive results of the interest research form. :thumb:

Would be nice if the cream base had cream colored alternatives for the accent keys. Like the other base has, cause now you need to buy both if you want the single color

Since the mold is manufactured as a complete set, this requirement cannot be met.It is recommended to purchase the novelty kit as a matching accessory. :thumb:
