[GB] DCS Nights Alps and MX | GB Nov 18

[Kaptain Mike]

GB November 18 - Dec 18




It’s time to join the group buy for: DCS Nights

DCS Nights is a dark set that pairs black keycaps with soft luminous legends and a spectrum of colors, like walking through town at night and seeing flashes of color and light as you make your way.

DCS Nights will be offered in both Alps and MX compatibility. I’m very excited to run an Alps set alongside an MX set and I hope you’ll take advantage of this opportunity. If you haven’t tried Alps, give it a shot and pick this kit up. It will be one of your most unique builds. And yes, the legends can glow but you need to charge em with a UV light if you want a strong effect. This is a keyset that’s easy on the eyes and works with many boards in your collection.
Remember, DCS good.

TBD


ALPS KITS



Refined kitting for the most common Alps layouts.



For the numpad enjoyers! Lots of Alps boards have a numpad so make sure you pick this up.



Extension kit adds physical compatibility for more layouts and so other layouts like WKL can match the color sequence seen in the base kit.
Would’ve added BAE but there is no alps mold…



Proper XT kit to work with boards like IBM Model F XT/AT, Ion Zenith, 6.xx and more.



Alps 10u sb for the enjoyers of long

MX KITS



Refined kitting with coverage for the most common layouts.



Get a numpad in your life.



Extension kit adds physical compatibility for more layouts and so other layouts like WKL can match the color sequence seen in the base kit.
More caps here vs alps ext kit because there are a ton more mx users and layouts.



More than 4-key support without getting too risky and expensive. QAZ support in here. Black mini bars are available at Sneakbox and some of you might even have some.



These will glow if you charge em with a UV light. Great for macro/XT columns, blank alphas, or anywhere else you want!

RENDERS
Disclaimer: These renders attempt to convey the real life lighting, colors and textures.


SEAL100 by Sensy



Cloudnine by Machina



The render below emphasises the luminescence.
In typical use, ambient light and monitor brightness will wash out much if not all of the glow effect.
If you really want the legends to glow, charge them with a UV light!



Special thanks to @pensa for the great renders.

Thanks for the extended 40s kit, Kaptain, count me in!

And also thanks to Sneakbox, I have DCS mini-bar kits on hand, will probably pick up another.

Hmm, might have to pick up 5 or 6 of the XT columns to kit out one of my small boards...

Thanks for the support! Please share with your 40s friends. I know it's not a ton of 40s layout support but it's more than basic 4-key and I hope it can get more people on board.
