GMK Merlin GB 08/08/19 - 09/08/19 ENDED Featuring stock GMK Colors TU1, N6, and CP, I present to you my first keyset design. For those who don't know me, I've been part of the community since around 2013/2014 (lurking primarily). Since then, I have created a YouTube channel where I review keyboards and feature meetups
https://www.youtube.com/mechmerlin and I'm also the QMK Community Ambassador. If you're ever at a meetup and see someone with a wizard hat, that is most likely me.
This set is inspired by two of my favorite sets, GMK Triumph Adler and GMK Nautilus. I've included novelty kits for all your magical needs featuring my wizard hat, a crystal ball, and for the first time ever a QMK logo officially endorsed by QMK. (If other keyset designers wish to use this, simply ask QMK). My favorite novelty though is the "SUMMON" key.
Disclaimer: Pressing the "SUMMON" key will not actually summon me. ![Wink ;)](https://cdn.geekhack.org/Smileys/solosmileys/wink.gif)
But Merlin wait, didn't this set come out on August 8th, 2019? Well yes, we've had some difficulties in terms of renders but through the help of the community I've managed to remedy most of those issues. =). Anyway without further ado.......... *cue magical music
