No progress pictures sadly, its made out of acrylic.
I am going to order a decal of some kind soon so I could get some better photos after its applied.

I like the layout too, which is why I opted for it

Yes, that's what i meant, probably used the wrong term..
Sorry to go a bit ot, but now you got me hooked on that quickfire tk. Where'd you buy it? Availability of the mx brown one in germany seems to be zero, but a uk layout could do aswell i guess.

Ah man, sobering up as i learn about the pitfalls of the numpad.
According to comments, the surrounding keys including Enter are inactive in "navcluster mode" .. those extra keys would have been the selling point for me.

I am really at a loss as to why the Enter key is inactive while its in arrow pad mode, it's my only problem with it.

It's still worth the price to be honest, I am happy to use the regular Enter key.
