Using the lattice windows for church buildings often gave me the feeling of

Looking for solutins I came up with three variations.

(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:

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:

and made this nice window out of it:

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:

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:

In this picture you can see all three of them:

As always,
let me know what you think!
Thanks

Wow - Those are great windows!
I had been using the 8x8 lattice for windows, but it never occured to me to put
stained glass in them. What an improvement:
When (if) I ever get my
church
finished, I will be sure to give you credit. Thanks, Daan.

| Hi Marc, thanks for the compliments (now there is even a 'bargerboswindow'...) I like your church very much. You've got to use a lot of brown tiles there. But it really gives a 'wooden' touch to it all. Also the cross on the tower is a nice touch. (...) (20 years ago, 14-Oct-04, to lugnet.castle)
