Portland Head Light

In early August, Gary (Musicman) mentioned that Scott at Fiddlers Green was offering a free lighthouse kit because of National Lighthouse Day.
I took up the offer from Scott and chose Portland Head Light, an iconic New England lighthouse that my wife and have visited.
Thanks to the graciousness of Scott And Gary and the result is below:

Lovely clean build Mike. Well done.

The Fiddlersgreen models have a charm of their own and are great fun to make!

Nice build Mike! There's something very charming about light house models and it suddenly reminds me I have a jigsaw puzzle of the Portland light house. That's why it looked so familiar!

Cheers,
Erik

Appreciate your comments, Erik and Don.
The lighthouse is certainly well-known and pretty picturesque sitting out there on that jut of land..

I was having a hard time deciding which one I would want to get, and then missed out. I am glad that you took advantage of the generosity, had an enjoyable time with the build and have a great model on the back end. Well done
