Michigan City's iconic lighthouse rendered in birch veneer with clear finish. Ship wheel frame cut from 1/2" pine stock and stained.

It has been almost 50 yrs. since I have seen the MC lighthouse from that angle, excellent image ! Had a high school buddy whose father had a 28 ft. scow we used to party on in the late 50's early 60's. Many very good memories. Again, fine job on the lighthouse. I'd love to be able to bring back Washington Park the way it used to be 50-60 years ago !!! Hal

Nice work Diggler. If it finished, why not post it in the bragging section.

I did another rendition using just regular photo paper this time. Believe it or not, but I just may even do 3D holographic image in the future. Thanks for the comments. If anyone wants the ship's wheel pattern, then just pm me.

Thanks, they've been selling pretty well, so I'll have to make extra copies of the clock.
