Anyone ever do a set of WS2 base and WS1 text?
That would very near to blank..., at least given the color chips.

I cannot find WS2 on GMK/Uniqey's website.
Have they added colors since the middle of 2017?

Yeah, I've got WS2 and BV on my color ring even though the chart isn't updated with them.

You wouldn't happen to know the RGB for those two colors would you?  Decimal or HEX, doesn't matter to me.  I looked on Keyboard Layout Editor, but their colors are exactly what is on that picture.

Please correct me on this, but I'd imagine MaNiFeX chose CP for the Stormtrooper white because at that time it was the only white tone available.

As for color spaces, I would frankly advise using Pantones instead of RGB/Hex.

Not sure at all, the best I could do is try scanning then color picking the scan, but I'm not sure how accurate that would end up being.

Update: Monochrome and Empire fusing


As mentionned in the original thread, Snappo and I have been talking about the sets and we have agreed it is better to work together to reach a common goal, rather than have our sets compete against each other.
We are keeping the theme of this keyset, the novelties (if Disney miraculously accepts) as well as the artisans but we are changing the white from WS1 to WS2 (see this and this), we are changing to Monochrome's icon mods. Kits will be revised and might be subject to change. We are also thinking about a new name, hang tied :)

Excited to see what we can do from here.  :p

Excellent choice in collaborating. This will be a fantastic set. I can't wait, already! Now, onto improving the kit to the very last details!
