Let's get the bad stuff out of the way. Notice that they messed up the ISO shift. I was very clear in my email that the 1.25x shift was to have the arrow but no text. More fodder for ripster's hate thread, I'm afraid. I'm sure this won't be a problem to get fixed, but it'll cause delays for the ISO orderers.

I'm just gonna say it. I chose the wrong yellow. I love the brightness in terms of how it plays with the other colors, but the white diamond doesn't read well. There's just not enough contrast. That, and the diamond looks a bit off-center to me ... anyone else? Here's the original from R3:

That said, the blue is delicious. So glad I held out for the right blue.

Okay, now the good stuff. The legends turned out fantastic. Still a tiny bit too small and too narrow, I think, but they read Cherry next to vintage keys. I'm very, very pleased with how they turned out. Thanks again cycloverid!
The 1.25x Ctrl/Alt are Cherry pad printed, and the 1x and 1.5x are Cherry doubleshot.

They are a big improvement over the last round of moogle keys. IMO we don't need to adjust them for moogle R3.

For kicks, here they are against aggiejy's RGB set, which used SP's standard font, and all together in one image.

How do they look on keyboards, you ask? Frickin' fantastic.

I'll be working on packaging these up this weekend. I do need to know how the ISO people feel about the arrowless left shift, and whether the off-center diamond is worth hassling over. Personally, I would like to see it fixed and maybe go with a different yellow.
Thanks for your patience, everyone. This has been a long group buy, but I think the end product looks amazing!
