DCS Windbreaker - GB Launches May 20th

DCS Windbreaker
GB Will Run May 20th to June 24th!
GB is LIVE


So here we are, one year after the IC for GMK Windbreaker. After seeing the way people were interested in the set, I really wanted to figure out a way to make it happen. Unfortunately between things like Covid, massive queues, etc. etc., going through GMK just didn't seem to be the best path forward for this keyset. So GMK's out, I have no faith in being able to dyesub this properly, many other manus make me nervous about matching so many custom colors when they're so new, and some manus' process is simply incompatible with "handarbeit" style color blocking (e.g. JTK shoots all their alphas at once, so you'd need full sets of alphas for every color").

So that brings us to this: DCS Windbreaker. I'm opting for cherry-style legends, because while I appreciate the historic value of the Gorton ones, I think they're simply too thin for the already pitiful contrast on some of the caps.

Colors

Expect pictures soon, but for all but the lime green, I've purchased plastic Pantone chips and really love how these colors look IRL.
