Yaron, Very nice church. I like the details in the windows especially. Also the goblet, the books (hymn books or bibles?), the statue, the shields are all nice details. The clapper on the bell is a good idea - I'll have to borrow that sometime. Does (...) (21 years ago, 23-Oct-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

Hey Nathan, Nice MOC. I really like some of the details like the columns at an angle in the front, the spiral staircase on the right, the boar's head, and the way the walls and floors come out to access the interior. Bruce (21 years ago, 22-Oct-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
