Simple reason, Many R-7 Satellite launches WERE green at least according to Bill Gunston's books on space, satellites and whatnot (Salamander book so pretty thin on techie detail and more to get kids/adults interested in his subjects without all the engineering/history. Unfortunately that was a library book and one the library no longer has on it's shelves (dK if it was worn out or some one kept it....) Not sure whatever this book is, but I haven't seen any sources on "truly" green R7 derivatives. Molniya and everything else IRL seems to be the same off-grey colour. Early crafts maybe had a different appearance: But by Luna 1, this familiar dark grey was there: The original ICBM may have been painted green, but worth investigating further. 18 hours ago, DiscoSlelge said: I second @Well for the crème dessert color, it's far tastiest The more edible a part looks, the more I like it. 4 hours ago, dxeh said: Love this part mod, but please, for the sake of my OCD...

Well Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 (edited) yeah i think same, Many book and other graphic view generally always show the R7 green, but irl yeah i've see them mostly white/cream I think all Sputnik early sat was launched on white cream R7 Voskhod are green and some soyuz also look like green, but in fact my problem is also because they never really green during launch due to the temp of the fuel tank, like all modern soyuz launcher: (green on the factory, but 90 % White during launch) So that why i prefer the cream variant, make what you want @Beale Green is also awesome, that fine for me what ever you decide. ( maybe you could also link an alternate texture not included in the mod, maybe a little complex to manage, but that also a solution to make everyone happy ) Here a model/mockup i think of the cream variant beale show on the shematic view : Edited June 13, 2019 by Well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if it even compounds, and photos are colourised on the assumption that certain things are green.

Indeed, according to this article while I was researching this, the myth of the green N1 had spread to point that colour photos that looked grey would be tinted/colour balanced to what was assumed to be the "correct" green https://nick-stevens.com/tag/n1-3l/ "Note that there was no green on any of the N-1 variants! This is a widely held misconception, as many museums show it as green, (including the London science museum, and many Russian museums too). Olive green was only used to camouflage missiles, (and green would make lousy camouflage in Baikonur at the best of times). This error has spread to the point where photographs have been tinted to make them look green). And sometimes it was just poor quality film stock."

DiscoSlelge Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Testing the new comrads Korobeale stuff. Damn the envrionnement section is not going to appreciate that glorious junkyard on Mün... For what I saw now the new LK is awesome! The dual color of white and green is neato I just ping some things : the LK engine is very powerful maybe a bit too much, and I thought, is it possible to add cargo section in the LK ? Maybe only one or two places but I think it could be cool for new DLC parts, I don't know if it would be time consuming or not ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like @DiscoSlelge said, that could be great to have a new DLC cargo section on this, or eventually a separate part ? idk The Fact KIS don't allow DLC part is a little problem with tantares, but of course we could use the stock little box/inventory. I need to admit that could make me really happy to see a beale revamp of this one with srf attach. But an integrate inventory on the lander is also an easy solution. Nice work anyway, i'm going to use these new LK part a lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For new DLC, I think you can put the science in a container, and then put the container inside the storage? I'm not sure will investigate. 4 hours ago, doudou said: Ah okay, those are the old "deprecated / removed" parts, sadly there is no way to hide them from this category of the VAB.
