Halloween Special: Jack-o'-Lantern Family Paper Diorama - by Canon


Made by cutting holes to create any number of faces in a hollowed-out pumpkin, then lighting the pumpkin by placing a candle in the interior, the jack-o'-lantern has come to symbolize Halloween. The name jack-o'-lantern comes from a mythological figure named Jack, who was said to wander about at night carrying a lantern, unable to enter either Heaven or Hell. This family of jack-o'-lanterns is designed so that the small lanterns nested inside can be seen through the holes in the pumpkins. - Canon


O  Jack-o'-Lantern, ou  Cabeça de Abóbora, é feito ao talhar-se uma abóbora, fazendo caretas na mesma e então iluminando-a com uma vela em seu interior. Essa simpática figura acabou tornando-se o símbolo maior do Halloween. O nome Jack-o'-Lantern vem de uma figura mitológica chamada Jack, que diz a lenda, vagava pela noite, segurando uma lanterna, impossibilitado de entrar tanto para o céu ou para o inferno. Esta família de pequenos Jacks pode ser iluminada com luzes de pisca-pisca, para que a luz passe através do papel, em um belo efeito translúcido.

WWI Mendelejev Tank - by Gerald Marschall - Tanque da Primeira Guerra

Gerald Marschall is the modeler of this cool WWI Era tank, a very nice one page model, or two if you count the base.

Photobucket

According to John Milsom in Russian Tanks 1900-1970, Mendeleev's first Tank project (the 170-ton machine with 120mm gun) was designed between 1911 and 1915. It had a pneumatic suspension system and caterpillar tracks of some kind.
PhotobucketWas one of the 1st projects of super-heavy tanks in the world. Was planned in 1911!!! Weight - 173,2 tons, crew - 8 members, length - 10000mm, length with a main cannon - 13000mm, height - 4450mm. Weaponry: 120mm naval main cannon {51 shells} (I repeat 120mm naval main cannon ), 1 machine gun at the top(rotated at 360 degrees), speed - 24 km/h. Project was not accepted because it's armor was too heavy and cannon was too powerfull(unnecessary) fot those times. It was more a moving bunker than a tank. - moddb.com


O engenheiro russo Vasiliy Mendeleev trabalhou em um projeto de um novo tanque de guerra entre os anos de 1911 e 1915, sem ajuda nenhuma.
Como se pode ver nas imagens deste post, o tanque mais parecia uma caixa de sapatos sobre rodas. Era armado com um canhão de 120 mm e uma metralhadora em uma torre. Sua blindagem frontal de 150 mm e lateral de 100 mmm faziam com que este monstro de ferro e aço chegasse ao peso aproximado de 170 toneladas e comportava oito homens em seu interior. Seu tamanho e peso exagerados acabaram fazendo com que fosse um projeto impossível para a época.

The village is located near Takayama, in Gifu. Together with Gokayama in Nanto, Toyama, it is one of UNESCO's World Heritage Sites.




The Real Thing - By Night

Shirakawa-Go é uma aldeia japonesa que se localiza na fronteira dos Alpes do Japão, a uma hora de Takayama.
As casas de Shirakawa-go se chamam gasso-zukuri, são feitas de madeira e tem telhados enormes feitos de um tipo de folha larga e bem comprida. Essas casas foram utilizadas para a produção de seda, as famílias viviam no andar térreo e os dois ou três pisos do sótão eram usados para criação do bicho da seda e produção de fios. As casas são patrimônio histórico e cultural mundial, apenas 50 delas ainda estão de pé. Para trocar um telhado destes, 200 pessoas trabalham por dois dias, prendendo as folhas na estrutura de madeira com cordas.
