Really great stuff last week everyone. Let me start this week with another Plasticville salvage.
Started with two PV Cathedrals. I always thought the layout was all wrong for a church that small. I wanted to make it larger but instead turned the steeple and just added a small part. Now I think it looks more correct as a smaller church. The rectory building is a stand in until I find a PV Cape Code to fix up to match the church

| I like the colors in the stonework Gary, and the redesign in general.

Having trouble uploading today, but here's 2 more shots. No graveyard. Thanks for the kind words.

That church looks great. It's way beyond what one expects of Plasticville. I guess with a dose of TLC, Plasticville can be a sharp model.
What's even more masterful is the setting in which you placed the church. That hill with the steps and retainer walls, combined with the gate creates an intriguing scene that pulls the viewer in.
Carpe Manana!

To be fair to Bachmann, I've actually seen small churches with the same layout as theirs.
That aside, your church and its scene are still awesome.

| Nicely done, especially that stonework and the placement in the scene.

On January 1st I started my tree on a grotto, that led to doing a â…“ acre city lot on a piece of plywood 14 inches by 21 inches. The first two and a half weeks of January was relentless rain, then my back went out on the 23rd, so I kept working on the lot. I got it nearly complete, a house that was pre made, made a garage, picnic table, sidewalk and fence with gates and all the landscaping. I wanted a chicken coop and started one two days ago, but when I finished it, it was too big, so I made it a stand alone diorama with 5 small white doves. I still wanted a chicken coop, so this morning I started it and finished it this evening. The coop weighs 6.6 grams, the pigeon coop weighs 14.4 grams, picnic table is .3 grams and garage is 37.4 grams. I want to make a tiny outhouse next, it will take me just minute to make one tomorrow.

This is my lot, in HO it is 101.5 feet by 158 feet. It took me a month to complete it and it kept me from snacking while I could not work and from stressing out from not working. [URL=http://s192.photobucket.com/user/TheDragonslayer60/media/IMG_8499.jpg.html]  [/URL]

| The white birds in the first coop I made are actually doves. I got them from a thrift store in a grab bag of tiny items. They are cake toppers, like for putting on a wedding cake.
