That's the idea, glad you can recognize as such.

I respectfully disagree :-)
I've been tinkering around with it, adding crosses, more angels
or simply circles and rectangles only to decide that it's a
departure from the idea of a roman architecture. Same with
adding more yellow details (for gold) which I found overdoing
things.

There is something odd indeed. The church has two similar
towers at the front, a configuration that's normally found with
gothic cathedrals (at least I can't think of a two-tower church
in Western Europe that is _not_ a gothic cathedral), where
you'd expect a more prolific use of details. Maybe you sense
this somehow and therefore expect a gothic architecture?

I agree with you on this. Log bricks work just fine for bigger
doors, but not on these small ones.

If you mean don't take it personally, I don't. Your feedback
is well received, thanks.
