I am a huge fan of blue-based coloring schemes but you are very close to GMK Nautilus

I wouldn't recommend running too close to each other ...
Interesting, are the Alpha legends light grey?
I would really dig it if all of the legends were the Cyan.
Keep it lowkey without the magenta purple and other accent pls.

Forgot to say this: text legends instead of icons, and uppercase CODE keys in place of the win keys please. That would be source code-ish.Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/ShXg0fN.png)
Oh, if you want to call this "Solarized", don't forget to ask Ethan for permission. Maybe we can even donate him a set if a GB for this can be realized. IIRC he also bought a set of Penumbra a few years ago.
We would like to thank everyone for their feedback and thoughts!
Things me, gatix and thesiscamper have agreed on so far:
-Changing the of name of set
-Use text mods instead of icon mods
-Colored legends add on pack
We'll play around more regarding colored legends and also going to try grey(Base1) as legend color for mods instead of cyan.Oh, if you want to call this "Solarized", don't forget to ask Ethan for permission.

We did email him a month ago with attached renders :thumb:
The oldest initial renders, and the slightly newer renders which flipped the shade of the mods/alphas (the current renders on the keyrenders interest check page) made the keys look like a very dark aqua color. These newer renders show it as more of a gray and with seemingly a little less contrast between the two colors. I still like it a lot, but I was totally in love with the initial renders and I think it lacks the same punch now.
Are the r4 mod keys with different colored legends an add-on/optional keys, or the standard?
added new renders from thesiscamper, what do you guys think?
:thumb:
I like the higher contrast between the mods/alphas, is there a render with the colored modifiers as well?

The contrast between Modifiers and Alphas looks right to me. I am definitively in.
Are you planning low-key options for Esc, Space, Cursors, etc? I would like to go for a complete low-key theme.
I like the new colors. The kit layout appears to be missing the cyan numpad enter tho. And the regular ISO-Enter looks a bit wide
hmmm, I know people mentioned they wanted more contrast in the alpha legends... but IMO they are a little too bright now and clash with the set :[ I thought the darker grey looked better. More like the basic renders posted now.
Any movement on this?
Just some feedback on the kit:
The |\ should be row 4 ISO
It's missing the @' on row 3 ISO

New render coming shortly, we went back to the base1 grey for alpha legends.
Just some feedback on the kit:
The |\ should be row 4 ISO
It's missing the @' on row 3 ISO
Still the same issue / missing key
Also added new renders :D

What are the chances of a Dvorak/Colemak kit being available in this GB?If you want a DC kit in any GMK set, you should get one in the Yuri drop. If the DC doesn't tip in Yuri, it isn't likely to be offered in any future sets.
Mmmh, those are some tasty new renders :thumb:
The rest is here (from reddit): http://imgur.com/a/K4f9g
just noticed your R4 |/ should be a |\.Fixed, thanks!
Any chance for another set of 1U Ctrl-Alt?For what keyboard is this? We'll be adding 1u blanks
I feel alot of people who like this will also like the nautilus. Im probably getting both. How do you guys resonate? Getting both?Both!
Any chance for ErgoDox support?Yes ;)
Does ergodox support mean there will be Planck support? :'(

The colored mods are only missing the ISO Enter, the stepped caps lock / ctrl, R1 1u delete and R4 Fn. I suggest you to replace the icon with a backspace legend in the 1.5 R2 key, it matches your legends theme better than the icon.

This set came up in conversation and I'm glad I checked the IC thread and saw that the colored mods will be a separate kit! Do you think you could add a 1u ctrl, fn, alt for the recent rising popularity of 65% boards and even some 75% boards?

Those two sets are clearly the best released this year, so id say get both. Youll regret missing out on either!
Is it just me, or the back space icon and the #! legend seem a bit out of place in what it is predominantly a legend based Icon Set?
I think that Backspace and Code legends for those keys would match better with the rest of the mods.

The base set will come with monochromatic modifiers. There is no need for you to get the colored ones. No worries.

Did anyone mention the menu or "fn"(3 line icon) key on the right of the spaccbar is an icon rather than word? Someone pointed out the backspace icon didn't fit in and I wanted to bring up that the "3 line" icon might have the same issue. Thoughts?
Space bars in accent colors are nice; but, have them in base color is needed. I'd say base color space bars are required, accent color space bar are good to have, but not indispensable. Offering them in the mod colors would be also an option.
I absolutely love this, it looks amazing. Would it be possible to get a NORDE kit? :)
Would definitely make it a guaranteed buy for me!
This is a really beautiful keycap set.
I've been a big fan of solarized for a long time so very happy to see this. Looks classy and very professional - maybe solarized for my work keyboard and Laser for home? ;) Count me in!
I do have a question:
Are those various brightly coloured keys labelled R02, V2, etc keys that will be offered with the set or are they just listing colour codes or something? I would like to see a brightly coloured key or two to add some pop.
Just chiming in to say that I would love to have this with the Ergodox kit. Love the Solarized color scheme, and I would love to have this on my Ergodox. Thanks for coming up with this! And I guess we'll probably see this pop up at some point in the next year or something, with the rate ICs are being made a reality these days.Oh god I hope we don't have to wait until next year for this set :(

Solarized Dark will launch on keyclack.com soon™.
Will this set include GMK's new convex 1u and 2u keycaps?
The render has a stepped purple Caps Lock, but the kit pictures don't seem to include it, is that intentional?
This might probably have been reported, but the GMK render has a duplicate R1 Home key in the 1800 area.Thanks, will check it out.
Is there any chance of adding an R3 PgUp and R4 PgDn for the default layouts of White Fox, Tada68, and Saber68?Can't promise that since the set and price has been locked and we've already adding a couple of keys after the fact.
Group buy will go live in 10 hours from the time of this post!

I kinda regret joining GMK Oblivion, was planning on getting the SA version anyway and I like this more. But I've already joined a few GBs in the past couple months, and Laser is still on deck. :/
