Blank is only good when you get used to the layout, for an example, my ducky. At first I always forget the led mode and has to refer back the manual loll I can't use non-stock keycaps for my poker 2 else I am not using the programmed mode lol! You shall consider classic beige or those blue on white by imsto, looks nice on your filco  add some rgb top and maybe a Clack / bro bot

But when I look more into it, I feel it lack of soul. Can you imagine if these keycaps are blank?

So, gmk considered top tiers or reached god tiers in keycaps? From my point of view, Gmks worth the price, it looks artistic and premium. imsto more on practical side, less on eye candy.

Why limit your self with that spacebar. You should get a full set, including the spacebar. So sell off your current mech kb and get a standard layout... You won't regret getting standard layout. Sooner or later, that gaming design will look dull, and ugly. Even if you owned RM 40 like black frame, by changing the keycaps with funky or matching contrast color, they're still better looking than gaming keyboard.

Well, even more reason to not get those Hahahahahha. Maybe next time when I'm fully committed to true custom MKBs. Yeah that's why I like the Taihos. Good place to start.

Even if you owned RM 40 like black frame, by changing the keycaps with funky or matching contrast color, they're still better looking than gaming keyboard. None taken. No worries. But I am not ready for fully custom MKBs yet. I barely even know the brands making this stuff. Let me play around with my K95 first, and next time when I'm ready I'll flog my current one and get a proper set. And I personal like a mostly black keyboard with a splash of color. So adding some nice red or orange keycaps is enough for me atm. =) Thanks for your insights.
