GB thread is now live!
Hey there!
As this is my first set, I should introduce myself. I’m eskimojo, and have been in the community for a year or so.
This set is inspired by the character Wiz from Konosuba. In the anime, she is a well-meaning shopkeeper who happens to be undead.

Profile
I have chosen to design this set for KAT, as its silky smooth PBT surface combined with a comfortable and subtle sculpt makes it my favourite profile by far.
Additionally, they have the capability to do reverse dye sub, as seen in samples for KAT Eternal and KAT Oasis.
The MOQ system for KAT is also unique, and is done in such a way that allows for child kits that may not usually get enough support to be made. I’ve taken advantage of this by offering multiple international kits and colevrak support.
Colours
This set uses four Pantones as these are preferred for dye sublimation. However, I have backup RALs if those are required.
I have samples of these pantones in-hand, and am happy with them.

Google Form to register interest
Currently I have been updating my progress in Emir’s Discord server, as he kindly let me have a channel there. However, I may create other methods of communication (and this thread will be kept updated, of course).
Kits

Base alphas for ANSI, ISO US and UK.

Modifiers for boards sized 60% to TKL. Includes ISO, tsangan, HHKB, and most others.
This also includes an R3 up arrow, as this was a feature from MT3 I particularly enjoyed and wanted for KAT.

Coverage for those inclined for smaller boards.

For those who like their board a little more gridlike.

Covers ergo boards and Boardwalk. (there are questions regarding 2u sculpt in the interest check form)

Special Thanks

  • Minterly/Nat and the neccsock crew- General advice (especially with kitting) along with the incredible support from the whole crew (love you guys). Special mention goes to bhk, who was a lifesaver for getting hold of Pantones. (Grinsepo also suggested lowercase legends, which turned out great)

  • Rensuya - Support since the beginning (this set was originally conceived in the Discord channel for Ren’s set PBT Aqua Goddess) along with advice and feedback.

  • Manzel - Assisted with colour conversion very early in the process, along with providing the excellent renders for M65, M60 and Tofu.

  • DepletedVespene/Miguel - Tireless feedback, and his awesome resources for international kits.

  • OneCreativeMind - Feedback on the vector art in the set. Also created the arrow icons, which fit perfectly with the font.

  • MKUltra - Assistance and feedback on the Ergo kit.

  • MetallicCharles - Awesome renders for Iron165, M0llY, and SP-111.

  • Yuliia of mykeyboard.eu - Support and enthusiasm!
