[IC] DSA Bounty Hunter II (aka Bounty Hunter Sr. aka Jango Fett) (Need Feedback)

[holtenc]

Hello. I've been working on another Star Wars themed set. This one is based off Jango Fett.

The goal this time is to have maximum compatibility but still be very slim. So I would like compatibility for all the standard 60/65%, TKL and 104 ANSI in addition to 40/45%.

Please leave feedback on what keys may need to be added or taken away. Do you love the colorway? Hate it?

All feedback is welcome; critical and positive alike.




It might be hard to see in the render, but the legends are brown

This time I might try to get some novelties going (These are from the original Bounty Hunter set... so just try to imagine them in dark blue with light blue legends.... I didn't have time to recreate the mockups... don't judge me)

Love it & want it. BTW, I need to pm you about honeywell & bounty hunter. Is that fine w/ you? If so, do you prefer Geekhack or RMK?

I feel like Jango's colors are less iconic. Right now it feels like every blue & white keyset to me.

Also, Jango's sleeves are Maroon, so maybe weave that in.


On an unrelated note, what about doing an Imperial Guard set (Red & Silver)?

Thanks. Sure you can PM me anytime.
Probably better to PM me on Reddit /u/holtenc. I don't frequent GH too much and I don't get PM notifications. Could also email me holtenc@primekb.com

You're right about blue/white. Except for the brown legends. The brown is for his belt and I guess the sleeves. Never noticed the maroon. I'll have another look. Thanks for the comments.

Not a fan of the brown legends. White alphas are also sort of meh... sets with white alphas are a dime a dozen.

Jango Fett's sleeves are not maroon. They are a grey-blue like the rest of his jumpsuit.

Why not try some grey for the alphas instead? I agree that there are too many white/blue sets out there. Plus, Jango doesn't really have white on his armour per se. What are your thoughts on that?

I guess it's just bad lighting, but this is where my "maroon" observation came from:

I like the subject but base set is very basic. Why not just run this as a novelty set alone. There is no reason every set has to include an entire keyboard. I think you will gather more interest and consensus if you focus on the novelties. They will work for many sets.

Technically the alphas are gray. Perhaps a bit too light, but definitely gray.

Eh, y'all are right, this does t really offer anything new or exciting. I'm finding it very hard to come up with a colorway that hasn't already been done. Yesterday I reported this thread to mods for deletion but I guess they don't check this email things.

Would be pretty slick instead of solid gray, mold them in light gray w/fine metallic/pearl!

You'd get some swirling in the plastic, but could look really cool.

Right & I'm still interested in this set becoming a reality, please don't cancel your IC for it.

Yes! I still think this has potential! Don’t get discouraged!
