This is ****. Not soviet colors, bad icons, there is nothing from real USSR aerospace exploration spirit.

It’s hard for me to find anything about the cosmonaut program from around 1960 in color. What colors would you suggest for the set that would better represent this theme?

Also "soviet colors" can mean a lot of things. See GMK Fishbed for a good example.

You should elaborate your comment. Whatever you meant with the asterisks, a proposal would be much better, instead of it.

This is growing on me as well. Any chance you can add some of the red and yellow key color alternatives (esc key, arrows) to the base kit?

At present, we will distinguish them according to the layout already given.

I agree, no point in complaining if you don't have any constructive criticism. Also to me these colors are very reminiscent of Soviet military uniforms or just military uniforms in general.

Back in a days , in 2007 i was  graduated as a aerospace enigneer, worked in severel aerospace facilities, visited some places, and keeping an aerospace spirit in my heart even today (now im in telecom).
I will not blame creator on letters,  strange font (even М in  "дорога в косПос"), and even on color matching.
I blame him, that he takes strong historical topic, representing big part of USSR ppl destiny, and not doing deep research.

In my opinion there should be Bright Red Orange color, like Jet Stream and Early space suits color.
There should be White, did u saw launch vehicle pics?
Why don't you get novieltis from real soviet graphic? Where's Sergey Korolev and others, why only Gagarin here?

Overall it looks really weird and nothing (colors, fonts, graphic) reminds you about real history.
Great topic - weak attempt.

Yep, here's another leisure layman opinion =)
Actually that story is not about military ...it's about scientists, many thousands factory workers, about childhood dreams and  collaboration. And usually there's no such colors as "Miltary Green" in aerospace technics then and now.

With regard to the question about the spirit of Soviet space exploration, you may want to consult the various colour stamps that were issues in commemoration of Vostok-1:









Globus panel on Vostok:



Then there's the most esoteric stuff:



(That could be a popular colourway.)

Although the Soviet civilian space program may have been tied to its military component, that's not how it was portrayed publicly. It wasn't about the colour of the rocket or capsule, or generals turning ignition keys. It was about space, and Soviet red, and metal shining in the sun.

The colorway itself can be debated, and you are certainly welcome to produce what you envision yourself... There are many sides to this history and quite a few colors pop in mind, not just the propaganda leaflets that were issued at the time.

First of all, I would like to thank you for your attention to this issue. In fact, the space program is a product of the Cold War. Yuri Gagarin became a major when he returned to Earth. These are all history. And the space race between the Soviet Union and the United States inspired the creation of Star Wars. Why is it not the interstellar exploration, but the war? I am not a person who advocates war. I just create on the basis of history. I don't want to avoid and beautify it deliberately. History always brings regrets and achievements, does it? For more detailed instructions.Also, please continue to discuss the shortcomings of the design. Thank you.

Thank you! But, as you said, this is a propaganda product issued by the Soviet Union, so I think more about the background of the times, the price paid by all participants, is it just about the space dream? Why should we rush into space after the two world war? You know.

Not a bad idea, but it might look too much like GMK Yuri with orange and white.

This is more muted, the colors are slightly odd but do suggest faded pamphlets and rusting machinery.

Well the colors match the early Vostok launchers and spaceships. The Lego set has similar colors too.
