A while back I traded some figures with
Matt. Since I didn't want any of the figures he had on hand, I took him up on an offer of a scratch-built building.
After browsing through the pictures of some historical buildings he took on his blog, I asked for a church building based on St Teilo's Church, pictures of which I have posted below:
We decided on a single-hall structure, and Matt went off to work...
Two months later, I picked up the church from the local post office, and what I saw was simply stunning. I'll let the photos do most of the talking. I've posed it inside a walled enclosure I bought off ebay and the
trees I recently bought.

The gate swings open, and he is greeted by the friar and a lay follower of the church |

The porch is removable. Note also the Celtic Cross made by Matt |

The door swings open... |

Matt has recreated the interior of the church too! |

The bell in the belfry actually swings! |
I don't think anyone could have made a better trade than this one. :)
Added: Matt's post on this building
here.
Excellent trade! That is a very fine looking church.
ReplyDeleteLovely stuff! Very jealous of that.
ReplyDeleteGood use of the pmc enclosure too :)
Hi Arjun,
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked the models and that it all actually arrived safely!
Very nice set up, your photos are far superior to mine - but that's hardly surprising ;)
Regards,
Matt
Thanks once again, Matt.
ReplyDeleteI hope this hadn't led to other wargamers beating down your front door asking for a church of their own!
Wow that's stunning! the interior is so cool! something like dat sells for at least US$30!
