Hey guys, quick little update.
Got colour samples today!!!
search
These aren't great quality pictures because they're just taken with my phone on my coffee table, but I can't go out and get natural lighting because California is actually getting some rain today!
I'm not really pleased with the purple, it's much too dark for what I envisioned this set to be. Basically, I want a less purple purple. As for the alpha colours, I'm quite satisfied with them but I am gonna ask GMK to try a yellow-er one and then I'll decide between the two, to really see which fits better to me :)
No examples of the red accent keys because they're not custom. You can see it here (left side bottom row) http://i.imgur.com/4HansnG.jpg
Thanks again for all the crazy support. 1K was never something I imagined, but you all did it, so for that, thank you.
With love,
Jessica
JessicapsAre you able to work with GMK on a lighter purple color, or is the purple you have above set in stone? I'm indifferent either way as I do like the color above, but figured I'd ask.
JessicapsI actually really like the deep purple. A slightly mellower purple like in the renders is great too, and of course more representative of the set as sold, but I'd be OK with this color as well.
JessicapsHey - My 2 cents, these colours look great, but compared to the render I think I preferred the more "pastel" tones. from the renders it came across much more mellow, and might just be my eyes/the photo, but the alphas seem more yellow here than I imagined. I'm not saying it's bad, but, different. And as someone said before lighter tones are a bit more true to what's been sold.
DanfoldsfourYup, gonna go for a more mellow look. The purple is definitely changing, but I also wanna see what it's like having a more yellow alpha colour. Most likely gonna stick with the light yellow of this run of samples, though
Jessicaps I also think the purple is too much off compared to the picture from item description (I don't even know which color it's supposed to be).
I really hope you can get the correct color as close as possible to the description which I've paid for.
DennyKThey could, but it wouldn't matter.
Lighting does weird things with keycaps, let alone the color settings of someone's monitor. If they sent pictures to Jessica, they might look fine but in reality look wrong.
Look up GMK Triumph Adler and you'll see how varying it looks depending on the lighting.
JessicapsPlease don't go too light on the purple, the GMK render is really under-saturated. (I'm assuming that's how it normally is with GMK renders looking at sets like 9009, in that the render looks much lighter in color compared to the actual keyset)
JessicapsFor Planck I can use the two windows keys or Code and End for Ctrl and Alt. This is a long shot :), is there any chance the two plum 1u Windows Logo can be switched with Ctrl and Alt? I joined the GMK plum base kit and the Planck drop and having a 1u Ctrl and Alt would make it that much easier. As an example, GMK Oblivion and GMK Laser have 1u Ctrl and Alt in their base kits.
JessicapsPlease consider R2. I am kicking myself every day for not jumping on. Finances just didn't allow it at the time. I have a plum colored keyboard but no keys.
