I know this is a classic set, but I would love to see some trad. chinese mods too - maybe as an alt mod kit?

I have one on my board and it doesn't even light up.

No. To expand on this point, when I was in Taiwan I did find some boards with Zhuyin, but it differed amongst brands and was not really standardized. I do not want to create something out of thin air and have grammatical errors or something much more grave. Rather my goal was to #1 utilize the Zhuyin molds Novelkeys and I had made with the success of the Zhuyin Alphas and #2 to create something that was in line with other OG Cherry sets. I'm not overly well versed in the OG Cherry space but most (if not all) of what I've seen have had English mods.

Ask away in the IC form.

No. Classic Retro, to me, isn't just about using L9 and U9, it's the whole "what if Cherry made these sublegends available back then". (You can read more on that in the reply to whirlwind)

Great stuff, if you could get the original cherry font on the windowed caps rather than GMK's stock one that would be absolutely incredible.

Sup · « **Reply #40 on:** Fri, 29 January 2021, 23:39:29 »

Can’t go wrong with beige.

also the base kit looks nice. Since it stock colors I hope the price is gonna be good.

sup3r170va · « **Reply #41 on:** Sat, 30 January 2021, 00:11:19 »

I’m in.

But pls consider icon-only mods, or an icon-only mods kit.
And an accent kit for ESC, enter, space, arrow keys.
Thanks.

HungHingDaiLo · « **Reply #42 on:** Sat, 30 January 2021, 00:19:08 »

Beige + Zhuyin is befittingly must buyin'!

Any chance having R2, R3 2x 1u mod color Cherry novelties for macro keys?

HoodrowThrillson strikes again! Awesome set!

tanghus · « **Reply #48 on:** Sat, 30 January 2021, 08:34:54 »

I'm drowning in beige sets, I must own them all.

Any chance of an alpha only kit?

actress · « **Reply #49 on:** Sat, 30 January 2021, 09:43:13 »

+1 to alpha only kit. I think by the time the gb starts most of the people who like the classic sets will own the mod colors already.
