How do you do per-key RGB lighting on a Shift V2?
I saw the online configurator that lets you do this on the Shift V1, where it spits out a compiled firmware file to flash. The V2 doesn't seem to have this function in the Windows configurator, though. I can't imagine the answer here is "you're going to have to manually write the hex for every key in QMK, compile it, and flash that".

I hope you like the set! I'd definitely like to thank Zambumon right out of the gate for the renders and really helping me out with this one! Everything I tend to make in this community is with others, I surely don't make awesome stuff on my own!
I wanted to do a twist on a classic, and Dolch is surely a classic. Simple sets are definitely something I really enjoy using, and my past few sets have been very simple. For those of you that don't know the Dolch set is actually based on the keyboard for a Dolch PAC. Not only were the keycaps amazing, the 1800 style layout also makes them still quite relevant and sought after today by collectors! I have always loved Dolch just because it seems to go well with any keyboard, and looks good on any layout. The GMK Colors in the base set are all standard (3A, CC, N9, 3C) so mixing and matching with other set should be quite easy! For the mod pack, I wanted something that would not only look well with the base, but also look great on many other sets. Unlike a traditional "mod" pack, that generally was just CTRL, ALT, SHIFT keys, I included the Enter and ESC keys as well, as I generally like just the Enter/ESC combo for flair.
I have tried to keep the kit relatively simple to keep the cost down as much as I can, but provide the best coverage possible as well!
Again, thanks everyone for the positive feedback, if you have any questions, big or small, feel free to ask!
A disclaimer first, monitor is not calibrated, it's just a Dell U2410 set on Adobe RGB. In the rendered pictures here on MD the two gray tones look more like brown, not neutral anyway. Yet when I google "gmk color codes" the CC and N9 colors are neutral in sets like GMK Dolch and sample caps. Here's what I mean: https://www.keychatter.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/keychatter_2015-03-27_11-49-01.jpg
Can you please confirm that the colors are actually neutral?
Best of luck! I think it's going to be a big hit.
Can you please confirm the GMK standard colors in the Base kit?
Confusing, yes. But the spreadsheet was just updated today, and it is still showing the Base kit price is $159.99 at < 250 orders.

I know this is Massdrop's area, not yours. But they have yet to clear this up, so would you please bring it to their attention?
The MOQ is 250 and the drop price at 250 is $139.99.
Hope this clears it up!
