Key set will be made with new Army font for almost every key, currently there are about 140 new legends and might be a little bit more if we have enough fund to do so since I still have a lot of ideas with it.
I've succesfully raised ~$3,000 thanks to generous donors from my Valentine GB. Around $4000 more to go, so don't be shy and DONATE, soldiers! Your act will be remembered forever in the glorious history of the Key cap evolution!!
If you think any key should be available in the Group Buy just give me a note.
Thanks for all the support, guys. Love you muchhh!
Here are all the options for this Keyset GB... for now:
GB thread is awaiting approval now.
And about the Red Alert kit, it got removed due to high cost and I was really sad. But I'm now talking with a certain artisan about my ideas to see whether or not he can help me to make it happen... So let's wait and see. I will keep you guys updated.
1 - TKL kit - $95Top to Bottom: R1 - R1 - R1 - R2 - R3 - R4 - R4 - Spacebar
This kit will most likely be required as minimum order in the GB
2 - Upgrade kit 01 - $50Top to Bottom: R1 - R3 - R4 - R4 - R4 - R4
3 - Upgrade kit 02 - $45Top to Bottom: R1 - R2 - R3 - R4 - R4
4 - Numpad kit - $30Top to Bottom: R1- R1 - R2 - R3 - R4 - R4 - R4
5 - Gamer kit - $15Top to Bottom: R1 - R2 - R3 - R4
6 - S:76 kit - $10Top to Bottom: R1 - R2
7 - Combo Gamer kit + S:76 kit - $208 - CS kit - $45Top to Bottom: R1 - R1 - R2 - R3 - R4
8.5 - CS kit - Pad printed SHIFT, CTRL and Spacebar - $15I could provide pack of 3 pad-printed legends on the existing keycaps in your order at the price of $15 ($5 each legend). Legends will be printed in the front of the key cap.
If you want the pad-printed legends on extra keys, the price should be $5 per legend + $4 for each extra blank or $6 / $8 for each extra mod / spacebar. So basically you can have it printed on any key you want, just give me a note for specification.
Please pick one option for the best color & the best position of the legend.

10 - ErgoDox kit - $3011 - Extra 2u & 2.25u keys - $TBDROW1 2u key TERMINATE (Backspace replacement)

13 - Vietnamese Lotus kit - $TBD14 - Red Alert kit - $TBDKit contains LED shine-through key caps in Red colors with Alarm legends. Still under preparation.
Hello there folks.
It's been a while. I just finished this recently and hope you like it:
The keyset will be made in SA family, row profile (1-1-2-3-4-4?), double-shot molding.
There are few kits still under process and I will finish it and post it up later.
As you can see in the mockups above, I want to use new Army legends for almost everything. That was what I wanted to do to the 23 Commando keyset but it was impossible back then. Just successfully complete the run was hard enough. It (the $50 each new legend fee) is still an issue now (>110 new legends) but I think we can manage to resolve the problem with enough support from everyone.
I will start by collecting your thoughts via this Google form here:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1D40e4FlZ8HIFdnojHlAbO-SjIuExq4tLwghwzCCPByA/viewformThe prices of the kits will be added some $ to cover % of the legend fee and I'm sill calculating it to get the appropriate solution. It's not set yet. Based on the responses I will come up with the final prices.
It's not a blind run since you can have a look at my previous run for the actual colors :
