Neuschwanstein
Castle "New Swan Stone" - this is how the name of this amazing castle, which has long become a tourist Mecca, literally translates from German. Ten million tourists visit it every year!
Conceived by the Bavarian King Ludwig II in a romantic style, it was supposed to be a stage for the works of Wagner, the king's favorite composer. Some rooms were conceived as small opera halls, and the interior of all the rooms reflects Wagnerian motifs.
It took twenty-two years to build it. The castle was completed only in 1869, five years after the death of the king.
A lot of openwork towers of different sizes, give the silhouette of the building a special charm. Many people know this castle from various illustrations on the pages of children's books. The motives of this castle can be traced even on the screensaver of Walt Disney Pictures.
The cardboard model of Neuschwanstein Castle is one of the most detailed scale models of this architectural marvel. A scale of 1 to 250 means that the model is 250 times smaller than a real castle. This is a model for those who understand a lot about neat work. If at first you treat cardboard and its strength with distrust, then as you build you will see that cardboard is an amazing material with huge possibilities.
The cardboard chosen for this model is not the thickest cardboard we work with. But this is the best material for such modeling. Where it is necessary, it is rigid, where it is necessary — flexible. It allows you to make not only faceted shapes from it, but also smoothly bend, twist into a tube, perform small elements. This cardboard copes with any tasks. You will not be able to do something like this from the first cardboard that comes to hand. Why is our secret.
Small details will gradually form into solid shapes, they will connect with each other ... The construction process is slow and very interesting. At the end of the work, you will find a tough and surprisingly durable model in front of you. The assembled model has a length of almost 70 centimeters. All the little things are carefully thought out, both from the outside and from the inside, including turrets, ladders and even the shape and location of special holes, the need for which you will think about more than once, and then evaluate their usefulness during assembly.
