[IC] Dolch Green ESC

[avtar]

I know... maybe sometime later we can do a little alphas kit to make mono set to interchange with Dolch.

You're saying all the right things!

[ideus]

Just waiting on pricing and updated mock ups from GMK. As soon as I have them I will start up the groupbuy.
For this kit, it will have 2x variation of Esc white/cyan and cyan/dark grey, white on cyan ▲ style arrows WASD replacement, cyan on grey F J, white on cyan ANSI ISO and NP enters, 1.25 and 1x cyan on dark grey win8 keys.
There will be a Dolch base set that will be around $110, a F'n'A rows pack, and an 'odd' mods+nav pack for minila, fc660, choc mini, keycool 84, Pure Pro/Tex, Race, 5000, 1800, and etc.

Have not read all the thread, but are you considering to keep the mods as a separated subset?

[IvanIvanovich]

No the normal modifier selection will be part of the base set.

I like this 

[Kakkun]

Would love to get my hands on a Dolch set (though it does seem pretty pricey)

Any info on what sort of profiles they'll come in?

This is the cheapest GMK groupbuy I have ever seen.

[avtar]

EEK! I'm down for base and all the options

I know you mentioned it earlier but I don't see it in the mock-ups, could a spacebar-only addon be added?

[CPTBadAss]

I'm very interested. Would look great with my Dolch PAC case .

[sth]

i don't have the money for this!!!!

[CK Briefs]

GG buying colour pack 100%

[pichu23]

So down for it.

[bueller]

I'm in for a color pack, that looks sexy and would probably go with a lot of different sets.

[lightsout714]

Looking good Ivan.

[tjweir]

Ivan, you are awesome.

[lightsout714]

Why blank windows keys in the base set? Just curious.

[IvanIvanovich]

Blank Windows keys... because I am tired of endless debate about which style logo and better for Apple/NIX user.
Yes there will be extra spacebar... no need for a mock up of spacebar. There may also be EDOX add on... maybe a blank 37 set or something like this if the price isn't stupid.

Ivan you are a GMK keycap set hero lol
How much would these cost exactly?

[pichu23]

Now to wait for the price.
For the base set I assume 104 keys + the ANSI & tsangan add ons right.

Do you think colour pack windows key will look alright with the base set tho.. 

[IvanIvanovich]

Base should be something like $110. I don't have final price for the other yet. Should not be too high though... well maybe the ODD pack will be more pricy as there is lot of keys there.

That's sick!
That's with some pad printing too!
You've outdone yourself, ivan

I understand. Impatiently waiting for pricing. Are you still waiting on gmk or just need to make the GB thread?

oops you answered above.

110 seems alright. I'm going for base + colour pack xD first GMK set. Excited

[quochung1989]

The first thing which i want talk. This is big group buy with too much options. It is almost fit all layout which i know . But i hope you 'll add Ergodox pack later. But i already don't like color pack. It seems not fit dolch, sorry but i just say thing i think . And in 3 pack: Base, Fn, Odd; i have seen more key is same same. That can effect MOQ? I see why you make mock up like this. It is good for odd order but it make confuse for people wanna order more than or equal 2 in 3 that pack. That is all thing i feel when i see your mock up. Anyway thanks your effort

In additonal, 110 is great price for base set. I think i 'll go to base,fn,odd

I thought the shift keys would actually say "shift" on them.

The originative dolch gb had the shift text on them.

They do when the other modifiers have text, but notice tab, caps lock, enter, backspace are symbol only.

[Razor Lotus]

Am I missing something?

The pictures and the mockups look slightly different from this



The mods in the picture look alot darker, maybe even blackish already

Or am I seeing wrongly?

[nuclearsandwich]

Will the color pack F and J actually have raised nubs like they do in the mockup or will they be scooped like the base kit is?

[IvanIvanovich]

For ISO user, 'shift' is a problem because it doesn't fit well on 1.25 key... and also the arrow alignment is different on text and no text for whatever reason so even then it would mismatch. Other mods also then don't have text so it is more uniform.

What keys are same in each packs? Only duplicate key is extra 2.25 shift in ODD pack for FC660. F'n'A have same legend... appear to be redundant but it have different row profiles F and A like original 1000 set.

Modern sets use double E and double B instead which is what BASE configuration.

Mock ups are not 100% color accurate... also that picture is Dolch alpha with SP black Cherryesque font modifiers so it's not even the same thing.
Color pack F J will have homing bar, it's something different to have.

Dolch colourway is what you see in Ivan's preview pictures. Go google some dolch keyboards or check 'dolch' on ebay for the right colourways

Gmk mock-up are usually lighter than they might appear


But, why blank windows key, why :(

[tjweir]

I was hoping for white-on-green WASD and/or F5-F8, but buying the colour pack nevertheless.

Great work as always Ivan.

[IvanIvanovich]

Blank Windows keys... because I am tired of endless debate about which style logo and better for Apple/NIX user.

If you want Win8 key, you can get color pack. I thought to do just WASD, but I thought the arrow would be more interesting for something different.

[quochung1989]

Oh that mean R0 same profile F???

[cphead]

Sweeeet. The dark gray group buy lives on  ... as dolch

Long shot but any chance of getting blanks as well as the Dolch set windows key? :| I know people will argue and all. Maybe add it in the colour packs? Cause most of the people wants a full Dolch set I assume.

[HoffmanMyster]

Mockup looks amazing.  I'm totally in when this goes live.

Alright thanks alot for your replies :) I'll still be in on this

[lightsout714]

Does the majority prefer no text mods. Or are you just doing it how you like it Ivan? Seems like a big change just cause of the iso shift. Maybe just give them a blank right shift in the iso kit

I'm running my GMK dolch set with symbol only mods.

That's cool then. I'm in regardless.

[pichu23]

Either way, I'm still down for a set. 

[adamseto]

Dear Ivan

I hope open GB ASAP . I will forllow GB of you .

[GeeNDL82]

Do you mind to add another color pack with red color???

Base should be something like $110. I don't have final price for the other yet. Should not be too high though... well maybe the ODD pack will be more pricy as there is lot of keys there.

[MrClaus]

will this dolch be in abs (made by gmk?) or pbt?

pbt would be terrific for my long-lasting collection

Gmk doubleshot, you can't have PBT Dolch with dyesub, and no one wants pad printed
