As promised, Base and Classic Compute Kits have been updated.

Out and Data have been moved to Classic Compute Kit, providing some flexible 40s support.
R3 Page Up and R4 Page Down have been restored to the Base Kit.

I won't be offering them, but Hiney ran a spacebars GB not too long ago. Extras will be available, and the kits include 3u.

Some exciting news for my fellow artisan collectors: DeagCaps and Phage Caps are confirmed as artisan collaborations for GMK Red Alert!!

I have had zero (0, nil, zip, nada) luck collecting any of their designs, but both produce amazing art. I'm thrilled to see what they offer in these classic colors, and hope you're excited as I am about these collabs.

More news, hope you all forgive the constant bumping:

Jae & Prototypist have agreed to serve as the UK vendor for GMK Red Alert! Really happy to get this set to my friends in the UK without insane shipping fees.

Too late to think about adding an Esc key to the OG Numbers Kit? I was thinking how that set could mix-n-match with quite a few others.

Edit: nm, just saw red alert faqs on your discord... all kits locked

Oh that's interesting! You're interested in the OG Numbers kit solo, without purchasing the Base kit? That hadn't even occurred to me.

Yes unfortunately kitting is now locked. At the risk of being thrown out of all keyset design discussions, may I suggest using Delete instead?

No? Hello? Anyone here?

Kits have been resubmitted to GMK for quoting, now that Tom's Cyrillic Beige kit is in their pipeline. We hope this means GMK will quote the Crimson Cyrillic kit without pricing in new molds.

Otherwise finally getting around to more renders, which I hope you all will love.

Awesome news on GMK Red Alert!! GMK did a thing really quickly!

GMK replied within a few hours of my quote request. They are working with Tom (runner of GMK Cyrillic Beige & WoB) and me on a plan where GMK covers the cost of Cyrillic doubleshot molds. No concrete details yet (and I definitely do not have updated quotes), but this should keep the cost of the Crimson Cyrillic kit down.

I have this red NK65 and been waiting for a red set to show up. Thank you for that. Not a request but just a selfish comment -> It would be really cool to have a red SB. I'm gonna pick this up 4sure.

Glad you like this set!

I personally love the set’s clean, beige look and will be limiting accents to what you see in the kitting. Kitting is basically locked right now unless you see an egregious error of some kind.

No news on quotes yet, but I’ve added a few renders to the OP of a Titan Grey Kei HHKB. You can also see them below.

Your edit is unfortunately correct, sorry. But I’m hoping you’ll be happy with the set regardless!!

Very interesting set. I’m not sure if I would do base + Cyrillic or just Cyrillic

Hope the pricing is good.

One question on colours - is it OG in that it’s U9/L9 (like 9009 or KA1953 etc) or is it U9/CP like the first post alludes to (but did not quite confirm)? Thanks!

U9/L9. Basically normal OG beige colors with red legends and accents.

I should clarify this, because it's buried in the initial post: the set has actually run as CP alphas and U9 modifiers in past times. That's what I plan to use here.

From the OP:

Quote

The CP/U9 version of this set has not run since 2015, and I’d like to help make this set available to a new wave of keeb fans (including myself).

All renders have all been created with CP and U9 is mind, so what you see there is what you'll get.

actress · « **Reply #236 on:** Thu, 18 February 2021, 19:12:36 »

Would love if the alphas in the crimson kit were black, so we would get the classic black + red instead of mono red.

The Crimson Cyrillic kit is doubleshot, so you can’t achieve three colors on a single key with GMK’s tooling. The classic look (black & red on CP or L9) is achieved by pad-printing the red Cyrillic sublegends.

We are 10 days out from group buy. GMK has responded with quotes, and I'm working with vendors now to settle on pricing.

In the meantime, enjoy some art from pikku-allu. This is the Hubble65 with GMK Red Alert, the OG Number kit, and a Joker novelty.

Thanks everyone! We're only two days out now. I come bearing renders and some nice news: ZFrontier will help carry the GMK Red Alert pre-order overseas. Alex is a fantastic person, happy to work with him.

For those who know me, you know that u/crykn is my guy. So I needed to ask sGhost to render GMK Red Alert on his lovely Dawn FE in white.
