Title: [IC] GMK Azure tit
Post by: WHeisenberg on Mon, 02 April 2018, 15:36:07

Hi everyone!!

I would like to announce the interest check for a set me and my better half have been working for a while. The idea for the set came from a slow breakfast, a lazy Sunday morning while watching the chaotic mix of colours and noise that make up our bird feeder. The exact configuration of the kits are yet to be determined, but I have something similar to GMK Taro in mind.
 

Without further ado, GMK Azure tit.

And I didn't even name it one of the umpteen other even more eye catching potential names for the set.

How about using the blue from the alphas as the legend color on the mods?
Also, set title needs "Perky" added between "GMK" and "Azure".  ;)

The legends look really light. I am a huge fan of the nicotine stain color though.

That's a great idea! I will upload an updated version later today.

Hah! That would indeed have been a much better title.

It's a pretty bird but the lack of contrast doesn't make for a usable set - a blue legend version sounds better.
