The Adélie keyboard, at the time of group buy, offered all configurations with PVD Brass. For the Gentoo, the black and silver color scheme will remain. As for the other options ​I have opted for sand blasted brass as a more neutral element to mesh better with more keysets.

*The blue for the Gentoo is not the same blue as the Adélie.

*Color options are only speculated; colors, materials, and finishes are not final.

Pricing
Likely very similarly priced to the Adélie which retailed for $550 USD.

Status
The model is complete, the PCB is in the works. Assembling the vendors necessary to set a group buy date and begin prototyping.
