The current Poker situation at casa de boop:

Gorgeous. These are professional level photographs.
The Poker at the top happens to have almost exactly the same keycaps set that I am currently designing in Inkscape, and that I'm going to order from WASD.
I have designed this set to have all legends centered, and this is what caught my eyes when I looked at yours. Centered legends have been out of favor for several years now, and I suspect this comes from the fact that it's hard to have legends correctly centered on cheap mass-produced rubber domes. So we have been inundated with off-center keycaps legends because bad alignment is less noticeable on them.
At least that is my theory. I can't find a better explanation (justification) for non-centered legends. :)
Which board this new keyset would be on? Novatouch, IIRC it was your daily driver atm?
It would be for my favorite Cherry MX boards, and even some Topres with compatible stems (for now only the Novatouch).
My plan is not to order just one set. I want at least 6 sets. I always need sets, as I purchase all my keyboard in ANSI layout, but need to put AZERTY keycaps on them.
I'm pondering the font to use. I have got my hands on the Gotham font, which is the one used for the keycaps of the white Poker above. It's Matt3o Granite keyset and BTW it is currently available on Massdrop. Gotham is considered to be the digital font that is the closest to the one used on vintage doubleshots Signature Plastics keysets. Or maybe I'll try to emulate the TRS-80 font. It was my first computer and it could be kind of fun. The font looks even more vintage than Gotham.
Here is the font on the original TRS-80 keyboard (this one is disassembled). Does anyone know which font it is, or which font could come close?
