● Intro ●

Hi everyone! Here is KKB Cobalt, my first keycap project. I have set out to release a set of keycaps because of the frustration I had seeing so many beautiful sets releasing (more specifically made of quality ABS) - but none in my local layout which I love, so I ended up asking myself "why not giving it a try?" and here we are. Of course, it doesn't mean that I'm not gonna support other layouts!
For the design I wanted to do something sober but with a slight flair, being inspired by GMK Blanc sur Noir I really wanted to see how the tulips would look on a deep blue set of keycaps, and boy I wasn't disappointed. Of course I got the ok from BsN's designer so no worries.

That blue *chef's kiss*

Love that it doesn't just use the basic accent layout too.

The Novelties bottom row 2.25U and 2.75U are for shift keys or spacebars?
Could you swap their places, as normally the 2.25U is on the left and 2.75u is on the right.
Or if you could do a render with them, it would be even better (Alice if they are spacebars)

Love the colors, how about adding shine through CapsLock, NumLock? KKB sets usually offer them

[Eragon_Brisingr]

They are for the shifts, and sure I can do that!

I'm a bit afraid that it would push the price over 100€ for us in EU, an alternative might be to replace the R3 controls with the shine-through caps lock if that's something you guys would prefer?
I'll look into it and see what I can do, maybe I'm worried for nothing and I can just add them.
