Hi there,
I wanted to say 'Hello' to all of you here. I just got into the mech keyboard scene a little bit.
I am from Germany, which I noticed can be some trouble if you want to have caps with the German ISO layout including the umlauts.
I currently have a G80-1800 with blacks and a G80-3000 with blues and got the XDA Godspeed keycaps with the mentioned ISO layout.
When they arrive I will fit them to one of the boards or will make one myself with a custom layout, that I have in the works for making some things easier for me.
Greetings from Germany

Hello and welcome ;)
Yes finding german iso sets can be a pain (and more expensive) and also the lack of stores in germany (or EU) compared to US is also a bit annoying.
candykeys.com is the only german shop i know. For switch tester stuff and other small things i can recommend mechbox.co.uk.
In case you don't know: 14. October is a keyboard meetup in Frankfurt, perfect to try many boards out and meet fellow enthusiasts.

Yeah thats right. The Godspeed set has set me back a fair amount...
BTW, whats those cool keyboard thumbnails in the signatures here you guys all have. Where to get those? These are not the kind of thumbnails you can create in the KLE, are they?

They are from this thread: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=19113.0
Colors and details can easily be changed with paint ^^
