We are making this GB right now ….. I hope it can finish this year. We add more than three artists for casting jobs. Easy to have more labours but so hard to find more artists; that's why we don’t open new GB regularly like before.

I'm just sad that this was such an expensive set and apparently no one stepped up to make sure everything was properly matched. Hello the customers aren't tossing money at designers for fun, they're paying for a product. They can make excuses all they want about internal woes, but it's their responsibility to deal with all of that when they run these GBs.

[edit after reading full chat] People defending Ren in the discord are hard coping. When I opened this set irl, it was very clear on first glance something was wrong. 3 of the 4 colors were pretty good but the "lavender" one was no where near accurate so much that it ruined the set for me. This isn't my first GB, I know what's realistic in renders vs irl colours, and this isn't it bro.

something similar also happened with gmk moonlight. the designer even included the colour codes (RAL?) in the geekhack post, but the actual product looks nothing like the renders or the colour code. there isn’t even any way to contact the designer it seems, guy just went silent

End of the day, some one need to look at the renders and the real photos and try to atleast match them. It seems most designers just pay for a render, then get some prototypes and never bother to get new renders made.

Or they have such terrible monitors that they can't see the difference between pink vs purple. Maybe they should pay to get a colour accurate monitor
