Koinobori - Boys Festival Decorative Paper Model - by Ayako Fujioka



This beautiful Koinobori decorative paper model was created by Japanese designer Ayako Fujioka, commissioned by Canon website. Koinobori, meaning "carp streamer" in Japanese, are carp-shaped windsocks traditionally flown in Japan to celebrate Tango No Sekku, a traditional calendrical event which is now designated a national holiday; Children's Day. These wind socks are made by drawing carp patterns on paper, cloth or other nonwoven fabric. They are then allowed to flutter in the wind. They are also known as Satsuki-Nobori. Children's Day takes place on May 5, the last day of Golden Week, the largest break for workers and also a week in which businesses usually close for up to 9–10 days. Landscapes across Japan are decorated with koinobori from April to early May, in honor of children for a good future and in the hope that they will grow up healthy and strong.


Este belo modelo de papel decorativo de um Koinoburi foi criado pelo designer japonês Ayako Fujioka, comissionado pelo site da Canon. Koinobori, (literalmente, Bandeira de Carpas) é um costume japonês de comemorar o Dia dos Meninos em cinco de maio hasteando birutas em forma de carpa. Era comemorada por militares e civis, com os militares hasteando birutas que lembram vagamente uma lula e a plebe hasteando carpas simbolizando aguerrimento, tenacidade e obstinação, características essas que os pais apreciariam ver incorporadas em seus filhos varões. O Dia das Crianças é o desfecho da Golden Week (Semana de Ouro) no Japão, que junta três feriados nacionais: o Dia de Showa (29 de abril), o Dia da Constituição (3 de maio) e o Dia das Crianças (5 de maio).

Rock`n`Roll Circus - The Beatles - Yellow Submarine Paper Model
by Domatine


PhotobucketYellow Submarine is a 1968 animated musical fantasy film based on the music of The Beatles. It is also the title for the film's soundtrack album, released as part of The Beatles' music catalogue. The film was directed by animation producer George Dunning, and produced by United Artists (UA) and King Features Syndicate. The real Beatles participated only in the closing scene of the film, with the fictional counterparts of The Beatles voiced by other actors.
The film received a widely positive reception from critics and audiences alike. It is also credited with bringing more interest in animation as a serious art form.
Time commented that it "turned into a smash hit, delighting adolescents and esthetes alike". - Offered by Domatine, Italian website, you will find the model in two formats: PDF and PDO (Pepakura), so you can print the model with the PDF format and use the PDO format as guide, because it can be visualized in 3D. If you don`t have Pepakura Viewer Free Version yet, the link to download is at the end of this post.


PhotobucketYellow Submarine é o álbum trilha-sonora lançado pelos Beatles, que corresponde ao filme de mesmo título. Em contraste com a recepção do filme pela crítica, este é considerado o disco mais fraco dos Beatles e o único disco a não alcançar o 1° lugar nas paradas nos EUA e no Reino Unido (a melhor posição foi o 2° lugar, curiosamente com o "Álbum Branco", lançado 2 meses antes, em 1° lugar).
É um álbum que destoa do resto da discografia da banda, já que somente as seis músicas do lado A são do grupo e apenas quatro delas são inéditas e ainda assim foram gravadas entre 1967 e 1968. - Oferecido pela Domatine, da Itália, você encontrará o modelo em dois formatos: PDF e PDO (Pepakura), então você pode usar o PDF para imprimir as peças e o PDO como guia de montagem, já que com ele você pode visualizar o modelo em 3D. Se você ainda não tem o programa Pepakura Viewer Versão Gratuíta, o link para baixá-lo se encontra no final deste post.

Little England Street Diorama Paper Model - by Kingsway Models


This diorama called Little England Street is just one of the great free paper models in Ho Scale (1/87 scale) that you will find at Kingsway Models website. The two shops represent businesses that began as competing tea traders and grew into general grocery stores still familiar in the mid twentieth century. Sandwiched between the two shops is the small pub; the design of which is inspired by The Albion pub in Lauriston Road, Hackney, East London. This has now closed but the building still stands. Albion is the ancient name of the island of Great Britain.

Este diorama entitulado Little England Street é apenas um dos grandes modelos de papel gratuitos em escala HO (escala 1/87) que você encontrará no site da Kingsway Models, da Inglaterra. As duas lojas representam companhias que começaram como comerciantes de chá concorrentes e tornaram-se armazéns gerais ainda familiares em meados do século XX. Entre as duas lojas está o pequeno pub; o design é inspirado no pub The Albion em Lauriston Road, Hackney, East London. O pub já não existe, mas o prédio ainda está de pé. Albion é o antigo nome da ilha da Grã-Bretanha.
