Thanks, MDF is quite useful, as long as it's thick enough!
I used (part of) the plan of a temple unearthed at Tel Qasile, one of my earlier posts has a picture of the sign at the site, showing the layout.

A tiny update.
Stairs allowing folks onto the roof (see Judges 16:27, though 3000 may not fit, and I don't want to paint them!)
Steps from 3mm thick 10mm square laser cut MDF bases from Fluid 3D Workshop.

Very nice.  Can't wait to see it done.

Here we have the completed building, with added fig tree and chinchilla dust texture, before proper painting later today. Doors, idols, kitchen, altar, people, the Ark of the Covenant and, inevitably, some other stuff I've forgotten still to do, some of which I'll be permitted to show over the next couple of weeks.

Thanks, all. It's the details I now have to do which I enjoy most, yet I'm never quite happy with, so the ego-massage is most welcome!

Life has kept me busy so I haven't checked out all, but some, of the other competitors.  Very nice to see another 15 mm build in the competition.

Really like, as others, the irregular saw tooth edge to your base.  And especially like the use of those dice frames for the windows (which size did you use?).  You may just have solved a long standing challenge I've had on an Old West build that has been stalled on the window front.

Overall looking very good and shows a lot of craftsmanship.

Now I'm off to Pendraken!

Big enough that my ageing eyes can see what I'm doing, small enough that everyone else has difficulty spotting how shoddily... lol

Not exactly irregular, that's the beauty. Each 100mm of the edges are the same, and mirrors of themselves, so that they fit together, with an offset  if required. Terrain Tile System, from Sarissa Precision.

...dice frames for the windows (which size did you use?). 

7mm

Overall looking very good and shows a lot of craftsmanship.

Impressive piece of construction!

Thank you!  :)

Looks great but I am less convinced by the control tower looking bit which also looks more modern.
