Duke of Wellington

I built this model of the Duke of Wellington, an iconic statue in the city of Glasgow, as a goodbye present to my lovely (now ex-)colleagues in the LEGO store in that very city.

 

If you've ever seen the real thing you will know that this statue is never not adorned with at least one traffic cone. It's tradition, I think.

 

It was a fun process filled with many challenges, and I am happy with the result.

 

I finished this model in August, as I moved to Denmark in September. It's been an exciting and crazy few months but I wanted to get the photos edited before doing the 2025 retrospective photo, at least! (That's coming soon too!)
