Statement
White Wolf will be put on
hold due to actions beyond our control. GMK has decided not
to run it, despite running the design through a copyright
lawyer, who gave me the all clear. We will respect their
decision and evaluate how to move forward.
Or as Geralt would say…
I would also like to personally thank Garret from
Dixie Mech he has been wonderfully supportive of the whole
set, expanding the kits composition, and has tried to move
heaven and earth to make it happen.

Hi again!
I hope you’re all staying safe during the lockdown (if it applies to you). Personally, it finally got me to finish off a set I started many months ago and I’d like to show you what I came up with. -
Inspiration*
I first picked up Mr Andrzej Sapkowski’s book, titled “Sword of Destiny”, some 26 years ago, and quickly devoured all the others. It didn’t take long to have to wait for him to publish his newer titles. It was Mr Sapkowski, with the help of J.R.R. Tolkien, who got me hooked on fantasy fiction. Since then I have gone through many other authors and I’m currently consuming Brandon Sanderson’s works, but Geralt, Yennefer, Jaskier, and especially Ciri, have always held a special place in my heart and mind. Three of the latter characters inspired me to bring GMK White Wolf to life. - Kits*
-
Gwynbleidd*
I tried to keep Gwynbleidd the core kit as light as possible, while still offering coverage for as many boards as possible. I also included three novelties (two are pictured, the third will be an ISO Enter sword novelty) in it for a number of reasons. Firstly, I wanted the people who only get the core kit to get in on the novelty fun, and secondly, I wanted to differentiate it from the similar kits out there.
This kit has been updated in the meantime (render coming later). See changes in the KLE mockup below.
-
Zireael*
Zireael the novelty kit consists of 10 light grey on dark grey novelties, which are inspired by Geralt’s Signs Aard, Axii, Quen, Igni, and Yrden. I have also added the novelties from the core kit in a reversed colourway dark greys on light grey keys and included two coloured sets. The latter consist of two R1 novelty keys each (signifying the ladies’ symbols), arrows, and Enter keys. The colours are inspired by Ciri’s and Yennefer’s eyes. Finally, there are some new text novelties, including R1 1u “Hmm”, R1 2u “////“, and R3 1.5u “Roach”. The regular Enter key should be light grey, not white (render error). -
Version 3 “Dots” Design*
-
Version 4 “Circle” Design*
Witcher Signs are made using the casters fingers, which the dots/circles are meant to represent.
The lines connect the dots/circles, suggesting how a specific Sign is cast.
The dots are also a tribute to mechanical keyboards (PCB holes specifically).
The dots/circles could are also slightly reminiscent of constellations, hence trying to forge a connection with the stars, and magic in turn.
The spaces between the dots/circles and lines are also in line with that Sword novelty.
Since I have proposed 2 slightly different designs (I am partial to one of them!), I would love to hear some feedback from you guys. Please take part in this new poll and vote for your favourite design:

Obsidian
Error during rendering: there will be an additional B for
Alice users in this kit!
Obsidian the Spacebars Kit is designed to
complement both the core kit, as well as the novelty kit. It
contains 6u (off-centre and centered), accented 6.25u and
7u, as well as split Spacebars (1.25u, 2u, 2.25u, 2,75u).
There’s also an additional B key for Alice-like layouts.
This
kit has been updated in the meantime (render coming later).
See changes in the KLE mockup below.
Sihill
Sihill the Alternative
(Silver) Alphas Kit was added as per the request of many
people who asked for it in the IC form. I have skipped the
silver numpad to keep the price of this kit acceptable.
Renders
Naturally I chose Gok’s 7V to show-off this set,
mainly because I want one myself. It looks like I’ll be
going for the grey one!
