Posted this message already, but since I've used a space wing, I thuoght it might be interesting for space too. Using the lattice windows for church buildings often gave me the feeling of coming up with too small or too low windows. Looking for solutins I came up with three variations. I. With this picture in mind: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Debarg/Windows/stainglassedwindow.bmp (deeplink) (who can help me out where this one came from? I would be happy to show my debts) I tried to make a double kind and extended it with a 2 x 6 arch. I also added a shutter: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Debarg/Windows/latticewindows014.jpg (deeplink) http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Debarg/Windows/latticewindows015.jpg (deeplink) I like the concept, but think it better fits in with a castle type of building, instead of a church. II. Then I came up with this piece: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemPic.asp?P=30036 and made this nice window out of it: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Debarg/Windows/latticewindows016.jpg (deeplink) http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Debarg/Windows/latticewindows017.jpg (deeplink) I'm happy to have found use of this big wing, aside of using it in space mocs. (Do I see here another link between space and castle? ;-)) III. After that I thought of using this piece: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemPic.asp?P=4151 and came up with the largest version, and in my opinion with a very decent kind of church window, easily filled with trans-plates to make the impression of stained glass windows: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Debarg/Windows/latticewindows011.jpg (deeplink) http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Debarg/Windows/latticewindows010.jpg (deeplink) In this picture you can see all three of them: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Debarg/Windows/latticewindows009.jpg As always, let me know what you think!

These are so very very very cool! I can't wait till I have a MOC I can use these ideas on. I. I like this window alot. I've seen the SNOT fences used that way before, but I've never seen a fence slipped inside an arch like that. It REALLY makes the (...) (20 years ago, 14-Oct-04, to lugnet.space)

		Re: lattice windows
Hey Daan, These are wonderful (also Marc and Erik). I'm going to have to incorporate a stained glass window into my next MOC. I just got a bunch of 1x4 lattice fences at Pick-a-Brick and was wondering what I was going to do with them. Now I know. (...) (20 years ago, 15-Oct-04, to lugnet.space)

		Re: lattice windows
snip Very interesting. I am working on somthing like this myself, and got an amazing result using something like that - fences, and head light holders. For me that seems to be the best solution. I have 2 versions of my windows, one is ready, while (...) (20 years ago, 16-Oct-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.arch)
