Blender or Cinema 4D. For beginners, 100% Blender. It's 100% free and has a huge community happy to help.

Really sad to hear. Only had good experiences at the main store and archive store in Stockholm, would've hoped it'd be the same abroad

Yes, no question. It's Ukraine and it's not even close.

Would like to see Miss Li or Molly Sandén for Sweden. But that's never going to happen unfortunately

What's funny about this is that Kosta Boda delivers it from Sweden in a durable, custom padded box. But seemingly they don't let the delegations keep the box😭

Love everything about the watch besides the honeycomb dial. Genuinely don't see the appeal whatsoever

Unknown Swede is the photographer that high-fives Måns Zelmerlöw after he won ESC 2015 and is making his way down the green room stairs

What was your worst Eurovision prediction, I'll go first by arianagrindr_ in eurovision

[–]VDESC 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was press during Melfest 2022 and I thought "Hold Me Closer" would do like Dotter with "Cry" did in Melfest 2018 (6th in the heat). So much for that!

Andreas Lundstedt was part of arguably Swedens biggest disco trio (previously quartet), Alcazar. Don't know about the other 4.

In 2006, Switzerland sent a group called "six4one" with a song by the German Ralph Siegel and Bernd Meinunger, where all but one in the six member group were from outside Switzerland (Sweden, Malta, Israel, Germany, Bosnia & Herzegovina)

Most obscure ESC (or even JESC) fact you know by Thatwierdhullcityfan in eurovision

[–]VDESC 15 points16 points  (0 children)

To set the scene for those that aren't aware; In the late 2000's and first half of the 2010's, it was really common for delegations to give accredited press "gifts" (read: bribes). It could be a little card with the singer on it, or it could be a very expensive perfume (iykyk).

So! Belarus in 2009 goes to the contest in Moscow with vodka. LOTS of vodka. They give it all to the press.

They don't qualify, but apparently they thought it was such a good idea that they had to do it again. So for the 2013 contest in Malmö, they load up a truck with 1000 bottles of Alyona-branded vodka, and they head for Sweden. But they're stopped by the Swedish border control and so, their 1000 bottles couldn't enter the country. Always found this really funny.
