A Church Pattern

Post by Lee »

Hello everyone,
I am a novice at all this and have been trying my hand today to make a church pattern. For my inspiration I am using an old putz church that has seen better days. I am re-working it using the downloadable doors and windows to be a New England Church. I used pinking shears to create the crenelations on the steeple and the eaves. I am posting a picture of the original church as well as my mock up to work out any problems. When I am done, I will post the pattern here if anyone wishes to use it.
Kind regards,
Lee

Hello everyone,
I finished my New England Church as well as restoring the Church that inspired me. Here are a few pictures...
