Hi everyone,
after long time reading here and buying
many kits - i wanted to give keyset design a try.
The
first idea for this keyset came to my mind when I was
searching my little daughters pacifier at night…crawling on
the floor … finally happy that it glows in the dark… yet
still under her bed …
Then I did some inquiries and
came up with an idea. I really hope you like it.
Let me
introduce GMK Glow - a Glow in the Dark doubleshot ABS
keyset.
To gather the interest in this Kit - please fill out

But now about the set: As this is in early stage and
is my first keyset, kit design is quite preliminary and Im
open to all ideas and suggestions.
I’m aware that the
alphas are not alligned the normal place in the upper left,
will fix that in the next revision of the kit.
Kits:
Base
Kit: The base kit is a mix of light Glow Alphas with Black
Legends and Black Modifiers with Bright Glow Legends.
Standard
layouts from 60% - 100% should be covered.
Black Out Alphas: Black Set of alphas with bright
Glow Legends to make a complete Black design with Glow
legends - perfect with Grey or Black cases or people who
just like a dark setting.
Novelty Kit: Depending on IC feedback there will be
Noveltys in the Base Kit or as a seperate kit. As Im working
in the Lab and deal with this every day, the Theme will be
safety and warning signs (you can look up ISO 7010
WIKI). The extent of Noveltys depends on your feedback.
Glow Accent Kit: As the Black and White(Bright Glow)
combination is very versatile with colors. I wanted to offer
some colored modifiers with glow legends -> Colorful by
day - Glow at night.
dit: Question: Some people asked for Full-White
Kit
Woul you prefer this over Black Mods - White Alphas
?
Disclaimer: I had contact with Uniqey about the
possibility of processing Glow in the Dark ABS plastic and
got positive feedback.
But as of now - no Keycap with
this material has been produced.
A novelty of Rensuyas
GMK Mizu Kit will be the first Glow in the Dark keycap made
by Uniqey.
So I have no final color codes for the caps
in daylight and glowing at night.
For the first Mock
Ups I used GMK WS1 (daylight) and GMK AE (glow in darkness)
as the caps should be whitish by day and greenish by
night.
So pictures are likely to change a bit when Mizu
is finished.
FAQ:
Can we split Numpad: No
Can
we have XY Support / Kit: Please let me know in the Google
Form or in the Thread. I will clarify with vendors if there
is a chance to offer certain kits / coverage.
