| | | hi folks, we are seeking a helping hand to define the color scheme of this part: (URL) there has already been a discussion with orion and steve through e-mail, but it led to no end. the most critical point is the white-bluish color 505: (URL) up to (...)

| | | | | I don't have the part, but the photos posted make it look to me like the blue from the part is slightly visible through the paint. So the paint in the areas in question doesn't contain any blue. Having said that, the two red circles highlighted in (...) (20 years ago, 9-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

| | | | | | (...) I have the part, so I've been holding off commenting until I can look at it. But I lack patience, so... In my mind, I remember the part as having shades of white and grey on the questionable bits. Therefore the light blue just plain looks (...) (20 years ago, 9-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

| | | | | | | (...) I haven't found the part yet, but I've found the sister spacewalk brick and examined it. If you flip the brick over you can clearly see that it's not quite smooth. Compare it to a smooth brick and you'll see what I mean. This was probably done (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| | | | | | (...) hm ... this is in tune with steve (initially I used light blue 9): "Yes, I think it would work better to use color 503 (light gray from Mosaic) instead of light blue. If those zones are really a vary light shade of blue, you could try 505 (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

There are no light blue spacemen or spaceships in classic space. The moon is not made of bleu cheese. Look with the eyes of (...) (20 years ago, 12-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

| | | | | | | (...) The surface of this brick is perfectly smooth, so the blue pattern I see is not caused by brick texture, but by the screen printing process. Nevertheless, looking at the two mock-ups, I think the white version is closer to what it "should" (...) (20 years ago, 12-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

Also, looking at the second scanned image (sorry, I snipped it from this reply), the white 'seam' down the side of the astronaut's helmet appears to be strictly a printing defect - the white ink is positioned slightly (...)

Willy, From my own point of view, It looks like the inside lining of the rocket is also 505 the one separating the outside (left) 505 and the gray shadow on the rocket is supposed to be white. I like it the way it is, but consider one thing: I (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

I believe this is deliberate, as I can make out the regular pattern of screening dots. This is most obvious on the larger areas, but I (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

The printing process LEGO uses/used for this is faulty, and the white strips you are referring to on the rocket and helmet appear to me to be simply an (...)
