I finished the build on my workbench:
This thing has a vibe somewhere between Future Funk (the genre, but also the keyset), Synthwave, and Magic Girls (the trope, but also the keyset).
I love it.
The lighting in here skews warm;
Here’s a vague attempt at compensating for that with my phone:
Still looks kinda warm, but you get the idea. It’s pretty.
The parts:
- KBD67 MKII V3 soldered PCB
- KBD67 Lite Lavender case
- Smaller bumpons in lieu of included ones
- Polycarb plate from R1, standoffs omitted
- TX stabs in white with a 205/206 mix
- Gazzew Boba LT long-pole linears
- GMK Serenity
The Lavender case is a bit lighter than I expected, but I think it looks fantastic with this set. I’d originally decided to go for this case to pair with Serenity, and I don’t think I could be happier with how it looks. More thoughts on the build once I’ve had some time with it.
Edit; the lighting at work is a lot more color-neutral:
This photo is actually a touch on the cool side; the faint lavender color is a little more noticeable IRL. Purples are notoriously difficult to photograph accurately, especially if there are other colors in the frame.
Here’s a quick recording:
