That's a very pleasing colour combo. Was that failed shot your inspiration?

Where's the brown chocolate by the way?

I chose this key intentionally!
I did not like that Milka kit. It was the wrong color:

Idk if i already asked, when does the ordering period of Round 5a end?
Posted: 25 Sep 2014, 00:29
by 7bit
When everything is sold out!
I will order from SP when the Round 5 shipping arrived.

Phew. I was beginning to think you were adding all this to the main order, which would add another fine delay. Anyone else remember when we were going to be finished in spring?

I remember someone joking that it would be August by the time we got our keycaps. Oh how we laughed at his pessimism.

I said Christmas in May, do I win some free caps for being accurate?

The only way to pay is Google Wallet -- I had to clear my order. My newfound obsession with awesome keycaps doesn't outweigh my longstanding disdain for Google's business practices.

Send a PM to the bot with just one word in it: PAYPAL. I think that's the right instruction. Well, if you're any better withe Paypal's business practices! (I don't like either of them, either. But Google is the bigger brother…)

Sorry, but you can also pay by PAYPAL (worldwide) or PAYEUR (if you are in Europe).
Just send this line to 7bot:
PAYPAL

Should put up a link to Round5a wiki on OP.
Easier to find.

Just type "r5a" in the search field.
But I will add a link ...
BTW: I'm working on extra kits ...

How bad it would be to use white alpha from Round 5 with blue mods from Round5a as it is not the same white ?

Just pot the white alphas into the sun for a while and you will not see a difference!
I've got to find white key caps. Maybe Muirium can help out.

Dear 7bit, are you going to create some ErgoDoxian HoneyB kits? (BTW, it would be perfect to see legended ErgoDox keycaps)

Here goes: Top row is authentic 1983 Honeywells and bottom row is Round 4 SPH.

Note the yellowing on the Honeywells. Also authentic! Round 5 will be nice and fresh white, like the underside of the originals:

Until, of course, you put them out in the sun for that true classic look. Bugger, I forgot to dig out my Violet spacebar, assuming we're still talking about the same shade.
I do have my doubts about that "cream" though, as side-by-side it kinda looks grey to me:

Could just be the light today…

Me too! These caps aren't round fives either. Just a taste of what the colours will be.
