Did you know that Ages of Sail carries a large selection of card model lighthouse kits from the Polish card model kit manufacturer, Shipyard? These kits come in different forms. We recommend the ZL-series laser-cut kits, which include paints, brushes, and landscaping materials, and are all in 1/72 scale. HO scale kits are also available, but only in paper kit form, which provide sheets of color-printed parts that must cut out by the builder.

Here is an example of a laser-cut kit of Australia’s Crowdy Heady lighthouse in 1/72 scale.

Take a look at the detail in the close-up photos of this kit.

These kits make a nice, relatively quick project for those looking to take a little break from ship modeling. Check out this kit and more here. Ω
