Via het modelbouwhoekje van Reddit kwam ik bij een Zweedse documentaire over modelbouwers, door een van de Redditors van Engelse ondertitels voorzien. De docu duurt een uurtje. O.a. het bekende schip de Wasa komt voorbij in schaal 1:10
Just to clarify and give context to some guys, and a ship, in the video
Jan Myrdal - the old guy with meccano - is a very famous writer & poet. Is the son of Gunnar and Alva Myrdal, two of the front figures in developing the "swedish model". So, in short, a very famous son to two very famous persons in Sweden.
Wolodarski, the Frigolit-guy, is responsible for making Stockholm look like it does. And has had a bunch of fights to save the model workshop that the Department for City Planning has.
The large ship (Regalskeppet Wasa) was built on order by a Swedish king, it failed miserably when it sailed about a kilometer and then promptly sunk! We managed to raise it from the bottom of the sea in 1961, mostly intact still, and it now it resides in a museum. And well, the guy that built it is a hero
staat de video op YouTube, en hieronder kun je 'm ook bekijken.
