Japanese Boat and House Paper Models From Heian Period
by Yamanashi Museum


These two paper models of an ancient house and a boat are replicas of the real things in the Heian period, in Japan. The Heian period is the last division of classical Japanese history, running from 794 to 1185. The period is named after the capital city of Heian-kyō, or modern Kyōto. It is the period in Japanese history when Buddhism, Taoism and other Chinese influences were at their height. The Heian period is also considered the peak of the Japanese imperial court and noted for its art, especially poetry and literature. Although the Imperial House of Japan had power on the surface, the real power was in the hands of the Fujiwara clan, a powerful aristocratic family who had intermarried with the imperial family. Many emperors actually had mothers from the Fujiwara family. Heian means "peace" in Japanese. - read more at Heian.Period.at.Wikipedia

Estes modelos de papel de uma moradia antiga e um barco são réplicas das coisas reais do Período Heian, no Japão. O período Heian é a última divisão da história clássica japonesa, indo de 794 a 1185. O período recebeu o nome da capital da época, Heian-Kyo, a atual Kyoto. Foi o período da história japonesa no qual o budismo, o taoísmo e outras influências chinesas atingiram o seu máximo. O período Heian também é considerado o pico da corte imperial japonesa e é marcado por sua arte, especialmente poesia e literatura. Apesar do poder da Casa Imperial do Japão, o verdadeiro poder estava nas mãos do clã Fujiwara, uma família aristocrática poderosa que conseguiu arranjar um casamento com o Imperador do Japão. Heian significa "paz e tranquilidade" em japonês. - leia mais em Período.Heian.na.Wikipedia

The Cemetery Keeper Spooky House - Construction Report - Part 01



Halloween is coming and I decided to build the Cemetery Keeper Spooky House. I had not assembled this model yet, so I took some ideas of great assembly made by German modeler Schildimann. The photos in this post are what I've done so far.

O dia das Bruxas está chegando e eu decidi montar a Assustadora Casa do Zelador do Cemitério. Eu não havia montado este modelo ainda, então tirei algumas idéias da ótima montagem feita pelo modelista alemão Schildimann. As fotos deste post são o que eu fiz até agora.


The whole model occupies only three sheets of paper.

O modelo todo ocupa apenas três folhas de papel.


I reinforced the walls with cardboard, painted black, for, besides giving strength to the model, do not let the light transpire from the inside out, unless through the windows, since I intend to illuminate the house.

Eu reforcei as paredes com papel cartão pintado de preto, para, além de dar resistência ao modelo, não deixar a luz transparecer de dentro para fora, a não ser pelas janelas, já que pretendo iluminar a casinha.


Above, cutting the windows and doors frames and preparing them to receive the clear plastic, which I sanded lightly to give the appearance of dirty or fogged glass.

Acima, cortando as molduras das janelas e portas e preparando-as para receber o plástico transparente, que eu lixei levemente para dar a aparência de vidro sujo ou embaçado.


Above the windows and doors already in place and with clear plastic adequately glued individually.

Acima, as janelas e portas já colocadas e com o plástico transparente devidamente colado individualmente.


Above and below you can see the light effect of a simple LED candle, bought in discount stores, that crackle like a real candle and offer no fire hazards.

Acima e abaixo  pode-se ver o efeito de iluminação de uma vela de LED, comprada em lojas de Um Real, que crepita como uma vela de verdade e não oferece risco de incêndio.


In the next post we will assemble the roof, the balcony, the shutters of the windows and a few small details. If you like the Cemetery Keeper Spooky House, you can download the templates right below.

No próximo post vamos montar o telhado, a varanda, as venezianas da janelas e mais alguns pequenos detalhes. Se você gostou da Assustadora Casa do Zelador do Cemitério, o link para baixá-la está logo abaixo.
