Gday and Welcome to GMK Port!
*Almost any person whos
grown up in Australia over the last 90 years has probably
seen an advert or heard the notorious jingle of Aeroplane
jelly. A true Australian brand, Aeroplane was started in
1927 by Bert Appleroth, turning what was then a backyard
business into one of Australias largest family-operated food
manufacturers. Inspiration for this set was taken from one
flavour in particular: port wine. The trifecta of colours
corresponds directly with jelly slice, a common dessert to
serve in Australias hot summer heat, with a combination of
jelly topping, sweetened condensed milk, and crushed Arnotts
Biscuits (another Australian brand).

You may
notice this bears a striking resemblance to Ramas PORT
U80-A; the colours have the same origin! /DISCLAIMER/
GMK Port as a set is not affiliated with RAMA WORKS.
This
will be the first set I have both created and vendored, and
has been a new challenge to get everything compiled on top
of a full-time job as well as Ashkeebs starting up in the
last few months. Thank you to everyone who has been patient
who knew this project was being worked on, I can’t tell you
how much I appreciate the support!
All colours chosen for the set are RAL Classic, and
thus should be easier for GMK to replicate. I will be
ensuring that the colours are as close to the renders as
possible, and am hoping to order samples once the ball
starts rolling.
Kits
Base
NumISO
Spacebars
Extras
The decision to move the numpad to a separate kit
was, primarily, to keep the costs of the base kit down to as
low as reasonably possible, while also promoting the sales
of ISO enter keys for our European friends.
Thanks to
inspiration from Dixie, I have decided to also use centered
legends for the kit, as I personally prefer the aesthetic,
and believe it may be a growing trend that he has started. I
will still be going with the scooped/barred homing keys,
though, as that is also personal preference.
