  2. What is it meant to be? Seems like a nice clean model but is it big enough? I assume it's a church of some sort and I'd reckon a bit bigger but need to see the scale with the rest of the buildings I think

  3. What is needed on the tower are some architural features, a grand entrance, an archway, some heraldry. I think the tower could do with other ornate elements to make it look like an important plase. Intresting lighting, simple sculptures inset. ???? Yes it is a grander building but what else?

  5. my only issue with those buildings are they were built in the 1800's my scene is set in the 12-1500's and with all the research ive done the british weren't very artistic in thier buildings back then they were built to serve a purpose ie shelter or banging cheap whores on your way to/from a war even the grandest of buildings in those times were boxes made of stone only bigger than the buildings surrounding them. i will try and add some intricate stuff to this building but it is never going to be over the top intricate cause then it wont be the correct time period and will look out of place in a small town in the middle of nowhere.
