After a long hiatus, i've finally had time to give running this set another crack! Due to the backlog of sets running through ePBT, the set will now be run through PBTFans. There are numerous updates to the page and set in response to this, I hope you enjoy it

Inspiration
Inspired by the salt lakes found at Lake MacDonnell in South Australia, this is PBTFans Salt Lakes!
This sets intention is to translate the wonderful colours of these lakes onto your keyboard, how good is that!
To achieve this, the custom keycap set will be made in a Cherry-profiled PBT plastic through doubleshot molding.

Colours
The green and pink Pantones represent the lakes within the inspiration picture at their most vibrant, while the orange/brown is the earth causeway that separates the two.
The white pantone then represents both the salt of the lakes and landscape which is concentrated within the area, and how the lakes become salt pans when there is particularly harsh drought in South Australia.
The green and white have been updated since the previous iteration of the IC page. This has been to add a subtle bit more creaminess to the alphas, and to match the blue-green of the renders better.
Note that the picture below only shows digital representations of the selected Pantones, and thus shouldn't be taken as the final expectation for the set.

Disclaimer
While the renders are colour matched to the best of my ability, monitors display digital RGB representations of the real world pantones.
As such, the final product may differ slightly from what is displayed in the above renders.
