Update 11/03/2021

Slight kitting updates, added an enter to the alpha kit, while relocating the latin B to the spacebar kit.
Lowered the brightness on the kit renders, which should represent the colors more accurately.
Pics of the physical RAL colors will be posted with a reference once the sun comes out in the Netherlands.
Last change for now is some additions to the form, including a text+icon vs icon poll.

Update 04/08/2021

Added fixed Onyx renders, the bloom was turned up too high in the previous ones, and confirmed a collab with Keebstuff

Green sets pog, looks nice, renders are hot.

guypigeotto · « **Reply #5 on:** Wed, 10 March 2021, 20:53:45 »

I appreciate the inclusion of the tab key in the Latin alpha kit, but usually that requires the base kit to have two enter keys (Dolch R5 for example has an accented enter). While having an ISO enter does technically count, including the tab but not enter does make putting the kit on two boards more difficult, which in my mind feels like the whole point of an alt-alpha kit that includes tab.

Other than that, set looks fantastic. Always welcome to see more green sets, this one looks like a winner.

Not a fan of green sets usually, but this is really nice.

Yes, good point, I will include a second enter in either the alpha or the basekit

Lyle88 · « **Reply #13 on:** Wed, 10 March 2021, 21:06:44 »

Getting strong nautilus nightmares vibes from this set. Still, I like it, and I like the fact there is more contrast on the legends than there is in NN.

Extra И on Spacebars kit perhaps? Since you already put extra B there.

This is so good I can even overlook the fact that I usually don't like monolegends!

The monolegend molds are available for use, right? (vs the gmk masterpiece molds where one might need payment?)

Tree novs kit? Firs, spruce, cedar, pine? Or just a metal artisan Rama/Salvun/Asero whoever w a tree?

Moabee · « **Reply #23 on:** Wed, 10 March 2021, 22:23:05 »

Any chance for a Latin base as opposed to Latin alphas?

Excited for this project,GLWIC!

Helpingly · « **Reply #24 on:** Wed, 10 March 2021, 22:25:30 »

Really like the colors, but gonna echo what someone else said about strong naut nightmare vibes. If this set can come out looking like the renders, it's an easy cop from me though.

I will take pictures of the colors from my RAL book as soon as the sun comes out here

Very nice green-- interested in this. Thoughts on numpad sublegends (for arrows, home, etc)?

Been waiting for this. 100% in

dededecline · « **Reply #30 on:** Wed, 10 March 2021, 23:15:05 »

Nice set! Would you consider all-icon mods? Would work a lot better with the Cyrillic alphas than having Cyrillic monolegends alphas and English mods imo. Also please consider adding 3 key 40s support in base!

kumori · « **Reply #31 on:** Wed, 10 March 2021, 23:33:25 »

easily one of the best green sets ive seen, great work oggi

paperassgasket · « **Reply #32 on:** Thu, 11 March 2021, 00:08:49 »

I like green.

bigern302 · « **Reply #33 on:** Thu, 11 March 2021, 00:11:13 »

I will echo the hope for language agnostic icon only mods. 3 key (R2 1.75u Backspace, R3 1.25u Tab and R3 1.5 Enter) covers the vast majority of 40s layouts physically. And maybe an outside shot at Cyrillic F row? ф1, ф2, etc just has that look to it. (If those molds are public, I guess) Спасибо!

We never got nautilus nightmares reference colors-it was just the renders at IC (and early renders in late 2018 were different than those at GB and to me neither looked very close to the actual set). Something similar for Peaches n Cream-designer had some in mind but we didn’t know them at the time of GB. The biggest worry for me isn’t that right now, it’s someone picks a reference color and then discards it because "it didn’t look like the renders" (Firefly, Future Funk, maybe another). If on your most color accurate monitor or RAL deck you like the color you’re probably set.

Anyways...I’d like the icon mods but I’m in either way.

These are both the correct opinion.
At the VERY least, please no Dixie (centered) mods, but also, icon only feels like the right choice here.

Came here to echo the opinion that icon mods would look better with the Cyrillic alphas in the base kit.

But I agree about the icon mods.

I started my key cap journey looking for green sets, and I love this set. Where's the "Buy" button?

koenoe · « **Reply #42 on:** Thu, 11 March 2021, 02:45:17 »

Love the Cyrillics

atlanticise · « **Reply #43 on:** Thu, 11 March 2021, 03:06:49 »

GREEN IS AUTO BUY but I hope you will consider minimal 40s support in the extension kit!

To be honest my huge gripe is that the cyrillic alphas don't match the english text mods. Missed opportunity to go full cyrillic. But I like green too much that it shouldn't affect my decision, unless I have too many sets to buy in the month that this runs.

ANY WAY you would consider cyrillic mods? Or possibly just icon mods?

lewisflude · « **Reply #48 on:** Thu, 11 March 2021, 04:21:09 »

Love the shades of green! Will be fun to mix this with Perestroika for that Christmas vibe!

xii-12 · « **Reply #49 on:** Thu, 11 March 2021, 04:25:07 »

Love the colours! Please make the final colours look more like the in-situ renders than the kitting images! (darker, deeper greens)
Also, I know not having latin alphas in the base is part of the theme/inspiration but I personally would prefer latin alphas to be part of the base, whether with sublegends or not!
