cimddwc Posted February 14, 2020 Posted February 14, 2020 Hi everyone, here's my modular church - dedicated to the Invisible Pink Unicorn, though architecture-wise, it could be a typical Middle European church. Several architectural ideas were inspired by St. Kilian's Church in Heilbronn, Germany. (Christianity never got many followers in my view of the Lego world because it's just too hard to believe - I mean, crucifixion? When everybody knows that people can't possibly move their arms sideways without ripping them out of their sockets??) The glass windows on the right side: From left to right: some colorful pattern; a non-believer (grey clothes) turned into a believer (pink clothes); socks being raptured; a naive rendition of a pink unicorn; a pizza (partially visible). Top of the spire: That spiral stairs look quite dangerous... Inside: I kinda messed up the lamps - made some mistake and noticed it too late to fix it, so either the lamps are just loosely connected to bars and clips, or hanging freely like here... At least the wedding couple and audience don't care. :) Full interior: An early drawing: Checking how big it could be - comparing it to typical floors (numbers), compared to my round pharmacy. » Flickr album with a total of 40 pictures, including some construction details Hope you like it...

Retro Posted February 14, 2020 Posted February 14, 2020 Hi @cimddwc. Lego fan and Christian believer here. Nice model. Quote
wooster Posted February 14, 2020 Posted February 14, 2020 Wow! This looks really great. Churches and similar structures can be very difficult in Lego form, because these buildings are often very monochromatic. But your church has enough color in the windows and roof that it works really well. I also like all the textures and greebling you used. I will be plagiarizing some of your building techniques! Especially some of the elements around windows and doors. Very nice! Quote
gabrielerava Posted February 16, 2020 Posted February 16, 2020 (edited) Wonderful Windows and superb architecture! i like the statue on the top and the stair. Very nice Under construction small site! Edited February 16, 2020 by gabrielerava Quote
nwbricks Posted February 16, 2020 Posted February 16, 2020 Great work, the vaulted ceiling looks fab Quote
Man with a hat Posted February 17, 2020 Posted February 17, 2020 Very impressive. Nice details all around, especially the tower is looking great, And I really like your solution to the roof. Still get the rounding but no gaps. Nice! Quote
Joel010 Posted February 18, 2020 Posted February 18, 2020 Stunning architecture, it looks so awesome! Congrats! Quote

Robin_IV Posted February 18, 2020 Posted February 18, 2020 Very impressive building. I love your work!! And the nave is amazing!! I love your building technique whatever you used. :D Quote
carebear Posted February 19, 2020 Posted February 19, 2020 Just Amazing! Great Great Work! Greetings! Quote
Krol Zmija Sebastian Posted February 19, 2020 Posted February 19, 2020 And what a lovely church it is, too. I specifically like the adorned shields. Quote
neonic Posted February 19, 2020 Posted February 19, 2020 Great build It looks pretty 'smooth' but it has still a lot of details. the Stained glass looks great too. "the Stairs looks quite dangerous" ... you think so? Great interior too with all those details like the arches. Like those 'arches' on the ceiling too, great details. Quote
peedeejay Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 Great church. I think the balance is excellent as well as the amount of exterior details. The interior and the windows are exceptionally well done. Quote
CommanderJonny1 Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 Glorious. Always love some good stained glass windows. Quote
Mr_Good2 Posted February 27, 2020 Posted February 27, 2020 Love the stained glass and the arches. Nice touch with the unicorns in the back :) Quote
snaillad Posted February 27, 2020 Posted February 27, 2020 I can only echo what others have said, really great work. I especially like the pipe vaulting on the interior. Well done! Quote
Paperinik77pk Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 An amazing creation, with lots of details! I love those decorated glass windows - with the backlights they give a very realistic feeling! Quote
The Island Chronicles Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 One of the greatest creations I have seen on this site. Quote
alois Posted February 29, 2020 Posted February 29, 2020 I like seeing how you've been searching for solutions to the problems that arise when you want to build a church in Lego. I'm currently doing the same and know how hard it is to capture medieval architecture in bricks, much more than classicist architecture. Quote
rodiziorobs Posted March 25, 2020 Posted March 25, 2020 The curved look of the roof with cheese wedges is really well done, I imagine it took hours rebuilding it to get it to be so seamless. Quote
