PhotobucketThe Citroën DS was an executive car produced by the French manufacturer Citroën between 1955 and 1975. Styled by Italian sculptor and industrial designer Flaminio Bertoni and the French aeronautical engineer André Lefèbvre, the DS was known for its aerodynamic futuristic body design and innovative technology, including a hydropneumatic self-levelling suspension.
The DS advanced achievable standards in automobile ride quality, handling, and braking. Citroën sold nearly 1.5 million D-series during the model's 20-year production run. The DS came in third in the 1999 Car of the Century competition, recognizing the world's most influential auto designs, and was named the most beautiful car of all time by Classic & Sports Car Magazine. - Wikipedia

PhotobucketAssim que foi lançado, em 1955, o Citroën DS foi visto como a grande sensação do meio automotivo. Mais de 50 anos depois, a originalidade e beleza de suas linhas continuam marcantes − e foram decisivas para dar ao DS o título de carro mais bonito de todos os tempos, de acordo com uma votação promovida pela revista britânica Classic & Sports Magazine. O design belíssimo do DS vem de uma perfeita união entre o estilista e escultor Flaminio Bertoni e o engenheiro André Lefévre. Com esses dois talentos, surgiu um carro com design e aerodinâmica vivendo em completa sintonia. - citroen.com.br

Nice way to preserve the history and heritage of a place.

Jeito bem bacana de preservar a história e o patrimônio de um lugar. Bem que os governantes das capitais históricas brasileiras poderiam mandar fazer algo parecido. Imagine só as igrejas de Ouro Preto, ou as casinhas coloridas de Recife, o Centro velho de São Paulo ou a Bahia inteira, tudo reproduzido em papel. - Mauther

Paper Model History - A Really Very Old Paper Model

Photobucket


PhotobucketThe oldest paper model  I so far know in Sweden is a model of the 70 canon ship "Nordstjernan" wich was launched at Karlskrona in 1703. The ship was constructed by Charles Sheldon and the model was built by the constructor himself or by someone else at at the shipyard, eventually to show the form of the hull before the approval. The model is built to scale 1:60. It is now in the Maritime museum (Sjöhistoriska museet) in Stockholm. - Gunnar Sillén, by Bildrums Klippark

O modelo de papel mais antigo que tenho conhecimento vem da Suécia e é de um navio de guerra de 70 canhões chamado "Nordstjernan". Ele foi desenhado em 1703 por Charles Sheldon e foi montado por ele mesmo ou por alguém ligado à contrução do navio real, para mostrar as formas do casco antes da aprovação para sua construção. Este modelo foi feito em escala 1:60. Ele agora se encontra no Museu Marítimo (Sjöhistoriska museet), em Estocolmo. - Gunnar Sillén, by Bildrums Klippark

Korean Turtle Ship - by How Paper Cafe - Barco de Guerra Antigo

The Real Thing - Replica
The Turtle ship, also known as Geobukseon or Kobukson, was a type of large warship belonging to the Panokseon class in Korea that was used intermittently by the Royal Korean Navy during the Joseon Dynasty from the early 15th century up until the 19th century.

The first references to older, first generation turtle ships, known as Gwiseon , come from 1413 and 1415 records in the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty, which mention a mock battle between a gwiseon and a Japanese warship. However, these early turtle ships soon fell out of use as Korea’s naval preparedness decreased during a long period of relative peace.
Turtle ships participated in numerous victories against Japanese naval forces that supported Toyotomi Hideyoshi's attempts to conquer Korea from 1592-1598, inflicting heavy losses. However, their historical role may have been exaggerated since "the entire Korean fleet probably did not have more than half a dozen turtle boats in action at any one time". Korean admiral Yi Sun-sin is credited with designing the ship. His turtle ships were equipped with at least five different types of cannon. Their most distinguishable feature was a dragon-shaped head at the bow (front) that could launch cannon fire or flames from the mouth. Each was also equipped with a fully covered deck that was shielded to deflect cannon fire, and with iron spikes to discourage enemy men from attempting to board the ship. - Wikipedia

Artistic Interpretation Of A Turtle Boat Attacking A Japanese Ship 

Navio tartaruga ou barco tartaruga (também conhecidos como Geobukseon ou Kobukson pelo seu nome coreano) eram grandes barcos de guerra pertencentes à classe de barcos Panokseon, existente na Coreia, usados pela dinastia Joseon entre os séculos XV e XVIII.
As primeiras referências aos navios tartaruga são de 1413 e 1415. Esses barcos eram descritos como "barcos-lança" ou "barcos-ariete" e serviam para furar os cascos barcos dos Jurchen e dos piratas japoneses. Esses navios rapidamente cairam em desuso devido a um longo período de paz durante o qual a Coreia floresceu.
O almirante coreano Yi Sun-sin tem o mérito de ter desenhado e construído os navios tal como os conhecemos hoje. Os seus navios foram equipados com pelo menos cinco tipos diferentes de canhões durante a guerra Imjin. Os navios de Yi Sun-sin tinham o convés tapado e revestido de placas de ferro com pequenos picos. Ele teve entre três a cinco barcos deste tipo enquanto que em 1782 havia pelo menos 40.
