Norway's ship tunnel and a bit of model making art

[Sentinel one]

You guys know I am a big science fiction fan, and I love scratching building wierd shit, and I am really into
the whole Japanese Mecha / Gundam kits and art.
I have been following this model maker for a few months now, and he is just astounding.. these are plastic
Mecha kits from Bandai in Japan... they are excellent out of the box, but with a little work you get this:

And Norway's new ship tunnel.. Norway and Holland are doing some of the most impressive large scale engineering yet.

Tunnel project is a awesome task.

$300 million dollars seems a might low.
In the US, it would be in the billions after you factor in union wages, cost overuns, bribes for the politicians, permits, snail darter studies, environmental impact, flood plain management...
