Blending in. This set isn’t about the keyboard grabbing all the attention on your desk, it’s a set you’d see in a remote cabin in the snowy mountains, the type a famous writer would flee to to finish the successor to their breakthrough debut, far away from all distractions. They should really call their spouse, it’s been a while since they’ve been in contact.

why would you post an empty IC

futurecrime · « **Reply #2 on:** Thu, 28 January 2021, 08:19:29 »

I can see this selling a lot.

2021 year of the abandonment of the mod/alpha segregation. Keycaps now mix freely regardless of the colour of their plastic. Stick that in your mod coloured pipe and smoke it.

haha funny joke

eskimojo · « **Reply #5 on:** Thu, 28 January 2021, 08:45:12 »

I like the idea more than I thought I would

The alignment for some of the legends is a bit weird - the num row keys etc look odd being centred while the rest of the set is left aligned.

Any plans to get some board renders made?

asherw · « **Reply #6 on:** Thu, 28 January 2021, 09:07:11 »

Not something I really thought I'd like at first but this is great!

The only thing I'd say is make sure the contrast between each key's legend and base color is around the same. It'll look very odd otherwise.

treeleaf64 · « **Reply #9 on:** Thu, 28 January 2021, 11:44:24 »

This is a very treeleaf moment. Sometimes there are so many leaves that you cannot see them individually.
And sometimes people blend into the leaves as well

this is Camo!

Are you planning to use reverse dye-sub for this kit?

I cant really tell which keys are which in the kitting, it would be quite nice to see some renders......

What is missing from the extension sets for 40s to work? Legit question, I’m seeing cross-eyed from staring at kits...

NorDeUk or more would mean 2 more sets. Wonder if they’d reach MOQ.

It would be great if there was an ISO Spanish kit. I love the colors.

iinko_mk · « **Reply #28 on:** Fri, 29 January 2021, 16:51:05 »

same problem, can't fuking see anything, what type of IC is this

pararch · « **Reply #29 on:** Fri, 29 January 2021, 20:51:06 »

I really like the urban camo theme on this, but regarding overall arrangement, have you considered referencing digi-camo shapes more? its camo, but sort of too broken up for my taste? Kind of an oxymoron though.

Xeryn · « **Reply #30 on:** Fri, 29 January 2021, 21:29:59 »

Great job on the set! The pattern of the base kit render is well balanced, not too much of one color anywhere. Filled the IC form!

Lenux · « **Reply #31 on:** Sat, 30 January 2021, 16:00:45 »

Filled in the IC. GLWIC

paczki · « **Reply #32 on:** Sat, 30 January 2021, 19:09:51 »

Omg I filled the IC! These look so beautiful especially imagining it on a white case.

Ustinj · « **Reply #33 on:** Sat, 30 January 2021, 22:37:20 »

those are some dope icon mods. not a fan of the camo base kit, but radio silence i would be inclined to pick up

York Chan · « **Reply #34 on:** Sun, 31 January 2021, 02:40:30 »

The combination of different gray levels looks very harmonious

I played with a bunch of pattern options. Tried making it as random as possible, but it didn't feel right. Ended up manually creating this pattern, making sure to balance colors (tricky with the space bar).

mvkb · « **Reply #36 on:** Mon, 01 February 2021, 20:17:23 »

Just updated the Auxiliary set to include more keys for 40's, ortho's, and languages. It was a small change but hopefully has a large impact on the layouts and languages supported.

Sullivan · « **Reply #37 on:** Sat, 20 February 2021, 18:49:04 »

Filled out IC, would look great on a future build I'm working on. Good luck!

The camouflage works so well i can't even tell what i'm looking at.

Renders! We've got renders! Also revamped the post, added tons of new details. More news soon.

Wait... isn't Protozoa a UK vendor? They're listed as both a UK and US vendor...

Honestly, the set isn't for me... but I can see it selling really well! GLWGB!

HelloThisIsDog · « **Reply #47 on:** Thu, 25 February 2021, 23:33:35 »

Looks really cool! Can't wait! Are you actually teasing the "novelties" or is the joke that they're camouflaged and are just blanks

jmgfx · « **Reply #48 on:** Sun, 28 February 2021, 04:55:24 »

Love this, very sleek. Gonna look good in a lot of different cases

HelloThisIsDog · « **Reply #49 on:** Sun, 28 February 2021, 14:55:32 »

Sorry to voice a nitpicky observation, but is anyone else concerned about the stacking of the lightest color at F6, F7, 7, and 8?
