GENERAL REMARKS (Updated 2023/04/27)
- The idea of the inclusion of a mono kit seemed to be popular amongst those that participated in the IC form, will consider and work with some ideas! (2023/03/13)
- The split between which novelties to use are EXACTLY 50/50 at the moment, considering there is no overwhelming response for either or, I believe I will incorporate both
OG Cherry Logo and the custom Cherry Logo
- Did color matching, mainly for RAL 4004 and MG1 to produce more accurrate renders
- Still awaiting rights from Cherry MX
