Hello everyone!
I’d like to introduce you to GMK Modern Dolch Light, a brighter variation of the popular GMK Modern Dolch!

Inspiration/Naming
As the name might suggest, Modern Dolch Light was born out of Modern Dolch. Me and Dixiemech realised that a lightened up version of MoDo looked great and after some tweaking this is what we came up with. Modern Dolch light features cool greys on both the alphas and modifiers. It uses the grey from Modern Dolch modifiers, for the legends, to give it that unique low contrast and calming look. To add some vibrancy we added a variation of the familiar cyan and red/pink accents found in the original Modern Dolch.
Now I now the naming might not make sense, this isn’t a Dolch set after all. GMK Modern Dolch Light is a derivative of GMK Modern Dolch which is a derivative of OG Dolch. While this set is not necessarily a Dolch colorway, the name is there to show the origin of the design. One thing is for sure, this set will settle perfectly in every collection as an easy-on-the-eyes colorway that will go with any keyboard!

Kits
With the success of GMK 9009 R3 kit structure and GMK MoDoL also having two accents, we decided to use the same kit structure with some minor changes. As you can probably tell there are a lot of them, so we’ll possibly revaluate some of them after form feedback (especially Alternate, Command and Norde). So if you’re interested in these please do fill in the form linked at the bottom of this post!
Standard

The standard kits has compatibility for the most popular layouts in the community. It features the reworked icon mods introduced with GMK 8008/9009 and has accent option for both escape and enter keys.
Addition

Addition adds support for 660c style layouts, ISO UK, 60%s with arrows and boards with an F13 key like the TGR Jane V2 CE. It also adds alternate legend options for 65% layouts and more.
Numbers

Numbers adds compatibility for layouts with a numbed. It also includes the keys needed to outfit a 1800 style layout.
Obscure

Obscure adds support for 40% layouts, both staggered and ortholinear, and split spacebar boards.
Aesthetic

Aesthetic is for those of you who like to add a little bit of colour to your boards, either through extra accents or through LEDs under lock keys. It also adds both centred and offset 6u spacebar support.
Alternate

Alternate “alternates” the existing colours on some keys. This kit is great if you enjoy monochrome accents or a more uniform looking f row.
Command

Command is specifically aimed at Mac users by adding correct legends for Command and Option keys.
Modern

Modern adds the option for a full icon bottom row. It also includes a more modern take on the arrows, caps lock and tab keys.
Norde

This kit adds compatibility for ISO NO, SE, FL, DK, DE layouts.
