The model is build after pictures and plans of the original church from 1953

Heritage) for sending me a copy of the plans.

I hope you enjoy it.

Well, I certainly do! :)

Some natives commented that it should have been brown ;) but nice anyway.
And they also commented that you should definitely bring it to LEGO World
in Oslo in May'08! (drop me a mail for details if you might be interested)

Hi Matija,

Thanks for the reply and info.
The reason i chose for tan is that i thought it would be easier to find the
pieces in large quantities.
There are between 1300 and 1500 tan bricks 1x4 log used.
Also, if you take a look around the different pictures you can find on the
internet, depending on the lighting, there's a large difference in color too,
going from a kind of tan to brown.
I was there for the last time some 14 years ago.
I visited it twice, and when i look to the picture i took abouth 20 years ago,
then i see a light brown color, where the tan matches better than the old or
reddish brown.
The old brown is too dark for this model, while the reddish brown isn't perhaps
that easy to find.


Regards,
Ludo Soete
