Subaru Impreza WRC 2006 - by T. Arai - Japan

Photobucket

This Subaru Impreza WRC 2006, by T. Arai is wonderful. Very detailed model, with interior, 1/18 scale.
The Subaru World Rally Team (SWRT) was Subaru's World Rally Championship (WRC) team. It used a distinctive blue with yellow color scheme that is a throwback to the sponsorship deal with State Express 555, a BAT cigarette brand popular in Asia. 555 logos were found on Subaru cars from 1993 to 2003. Subaru's WRC efforts date back to 1980, however, the team, in its current form, has existed since 1989, when the British firm Prodrive took over its operations, and its base moved from Japan to Banbury, England.
Subaru used the team to showcase its all wheel drive technology. It has credited the increased sales of its vehicles, especially the Subaru Impreza, with its success in the World Rally Championship, in addition to popularizing its all-wheel-drive system.

Star Wars - X-Wing Starfighter - by J. Leslie

X-wings are fictional starfighters from the original Star Wars trilogy and the expanded universe. They are depicted as the primary interceptor and dogfighter of the Rebel Alliance and the New Republic. The craft has been merchandised as a variety of toys and models and licensed for use in games, novels and comics.
A model of Luke Skywalker's X-wing was among 250 Star Wars-related items on display at the National Air and Space Museum celebrating the franchise's twentieth anniversary. In 2007, the San Diego Tripoli Rocket Association built and launched a 23-foot-long X-wing model propelled by four rockets, which exploded seconds after launch. A life-size X-wing is suspended from a ceiling at Disneyland in California.

X-Wing é um caça estelar utilizada pelos rebeldes na Trilogia Clássica de Star Wars. Sua designação é T-65. É uma nave rápida tanto dentro como fora da atmosfera e alcança a velocidade de hiperespaço.
A nave contava com 4 asas em formato X (daí deriva-se o seu nome) com um canhão laser em cada uma. Possuía também escudos de energia e comportava um piloto e um robô, do mesmo modelo do R2-D2, que possuía a habilidade de reparar e pilotar a nave durante os voos.

Rock`n`Roll Circus - Kiss - Hako Style - by Homespun Magixx

Hako are those paper figures that are very "squared". I`m not a fan of this kind of model, but I am fan of Kiss, so, there are:

Hako são aqueles bonecos de papel super quadrados. Eu não sou fã desse tipo de paper model, mas gosto muito do som do Kiss, então, aqui estão eles:

Kiss is an American rock band formed in New York City in January 1973. Easily identified by its members' face paint and flamboyant stage outfits, the group rose to prominence in the mid to late 1970s on the basis of their elaborate live performances, which featured fire breathing, blood spitting, smoking guitars, shooting rockets, levitating drum kits and pyrotechnics. Kiss has been awarded 24 gold albums to date, the most of any American rock band. The band has sold more than 40 million albums in the United States, of which 19 million have been certified by the RIAA, and their worldwide sales exceeds 100 million albums.The 1973–'80 lineup of Paul Stanley (vocals and rhythm guitar), Gene Simmons (vocals and bass guitar), Ace Frehley (lead guitar and vocals), and Peter Criss (drums, percussion and vocals) is the most successful and identifiable. With their makeup and costumes, they took on the personas of comic book-style characters: Starchild (Stanley), The Demon (Simmons), Spaceman or Space Ace (Frehley), and Catman (Criss). The band explains that the fans were the ones who ultimately chose their makeup designs. Paul Stanley became the "Starchild" because of his tendency to be referred to as the "starry-eyed lover" and "hopeless romantic." The "Demon" makeup reflected Simmons's cynicism and dark sense of humor, as well as his affection for comic books. Ace Frehley's "Spaceman" makeup was a reflection of his fondness for science fiction and supposedly being from another planet. Peter Criss' "Catman" makeup was in accordance with the belief that Criss had nine lives because of his rough childhood in Brooklyn. Because of creative differences, both Criss and Frehley were out of the group by 1982. The band's commercial fortunes had also waned considerably by that point. Buoyed by a wave of Kiss nostalgia in the 1990s, the band announced a reunion of the original lineup (with makeup) in 1996. The resulting Kiss Alive/Worldwide/Lost Cities/Reunion Tour was the top-grossing act of 1996 and 1997. Criss and Frehley have since left Kiss again, but KISS continues with Eric Singer and Tommy Thayer, respectively. The band continues to perform with makeup, while Stanley and Simmons have remained the only two constant members. - Wikipedia

Kiss (ou KISS) é uma banda de hard rock dos Estados Unidos, formada em Nova York em 1973. Conhecida mundialmente por suas maquiagens, e por seus concertos muito elaborados e até exagerados que incluem guitarras esfumaçantes, cuspir fogo e sangue, pirotecnias e muito mais. O Kiss já recebeu 24 discos de ouro.
Constitui um dos maiores impactos culturais da década de 1970, valendo-se de roupas, e sobretudo, maquiagens nunca antes vistos, e que marcariam a história da música. Seus dois fundadores são Gene Simmons (baixo e vocal) e Paul Stanley (guitarra rítmica e vocal), que ficaram frustrados com o fim de uma banda que formaram, chamada Wicked Lester, assim, decidindo procurar novos integrantes para uma nova banda, encontraram tais integrantes através de anúncio de jornal, Ace Frehley (guitarra solo e vocal) e, pela revista Rolling Stone, Peter Criss (bateria e vocal). - Wikipedia

Cadillac Coupe De Ville 1966- by Jimdo

The Coupe de Ville was introduced by Cadillac late in the 1949 model year. Part of the Cadillac Series 62 line, it was a closed, two-door coupé, Cadillac's first pillarless hardtop. Intended as a prestige model, at $3,497 it was one of the most expensive models of the Series 62 line. It was luxuriously trimmed, with leather upholstery and chrome 'bows' in the headliner to simulate the ribs of a convertible top. The first-year Coupe de Ville sold 2,150 units, but 1950 sales were more than double, and 1951 more than doubled those of the previous year. By 1961 it was one of the company's most popular models, with annual sales above 20,000.
Cadillac de Ville nomenclature always followed a tradition: Two doors with steel roofs were always Coupe de Ville, four doors were always Sedan de Ville until the elimination of two door models, and convertibles were Series 62s, as they were neither a coupe, nor a sedan by design. - Wikipedia

A Cadillac lançou em 1949 o Cadillac Coupe de Ville , um sedan de porte grande típico americano com dimensões superiores a cinco metros de comprimento, quase dois metros de largura e com peso médio de quase duas toneladas. O nome DeVille foi usado em vários modelos de luxo da CADILLAC. Em 1996 a montadora parou de produzir o modelo semelhante ao DeVille, o Fleetwood, transformando-o assim no principal modelo da linhagem. O nome DeVille foi substituído por DTS (DeVille Touring Sedan) para o novo modelo do ano 2006.

Daihatsu Naked - Two Versions - Normal And SD

Here two ways to see a same model.

The Daihatsu Naked was a Kei car made by Daihatsu. Presented on the Tokyo Motor Show in 1999,it was built between 2000 and 2004. It was available with a 659cc petrol engine and either two or four wheel drive. The styling included features such as ridges in the doors and exposed hinges and bolts, designed to make the car appear rugged. The Naked was an early example of styling features from off-roaders being used on road cars; this idea has since been used on cars such as the Rover Streetwise, Citroën C3 XTR and Volkswagen CrossPolo. - Wikipedia

Um talentoso artista búlgaro criou este incrível modelo em escala 1/100 do Kon-Tiki, uma espécie de veleiro rudimentar com que o explorador norueguês Thor Heyerdahl atravessou o Oceano Pacífico em 1947 para provar uma possível ligação entre a Cultura Pré-Colombiana e os habitantes das ilhas da Polinésia. - texto de Ken Kanaka

Riverboat Krakus - by Carapace - Barco à Vapor Krakus

Color printers are revolutionizing card modeling. Printing out your own sheets has so many advantages (not the least of which is being able to start over when you screw up).
There is one such advantage that is now gaining wider interest: It is the fact that being in charge of the printing allows you to modify the model before you print it. Maybe you just change the color-scheme, change the scale, or correct a fit problem. Or maybe you completely redesign the model!.
That is what my last project was: A complete redesign of a 30-year-old Maly Modelarz model of a Polish paddlewheel riverboat, the Krakus. - text by Carapace
You can download the redesigned model of Krakus in the link at the end of this post.

Impressoras coloridas estão revolucionando o papelmodelismo. Imprimir seu próprio modelo tem tantas vantagens. Uma das vantagens que gera mais interesse é a possibilidade de modificar o modelo antes de imprimí-lo. Talvez você só mude a cor, ou reescale para mais ou menos, ou apenas corrija algum erro de encaixe que pasou despercebido. Ou tavez você redesenhe o modelo inteiro!
Isto é o que proponho em meu último projeto: Refazer completamente um modelo com mais de 30 anos da polonesa Maly Modelarz, um barco à vapor, o Krakus. - texto de Carapace
Você pode baixar o modelo redesenhado do Krakus no link abaixo, no final do post.
