Thank you Sir.

Altar should be quite easy to do but did the Catholic churches or missions have pews back then? Anyone with the info on that?

Poorer communities are not as likely as affluent communities to have pews. It may not be common to not have pews but it would not be unusual either.

Terve! (one of the few words I know in Finnish

)

That's really nice work there, as been said elsewhere, this forum is very inspirational but expensive...

I would go with only a simple altar and a bell rope (of course) with mostly standing spaces, maybe a few selected seatings for the important people in the community in the front.

Keep up the good work.

Often just rough hewn benches would serve as pews.

I think I will make few crude benches that are meant for elderly folk and pregnant ladies so those benches can be moved around if there happens to be a fight etc inside the church. Now need to find a proper padre miniature as well.

There are a lot of those around.

Any suggestions? Rather a miniature fitting to Artizan or Black Scorpion size range. Tall and flanky or big belly ones preferred.

I like the wood effect on the first building, looking forward to seeing the church with a lock of paint

cheers

Cheers gents, I hope to advance Dos Cruces during the coming week. No progress this weekend as it was/is spent at my folks, some 500km from Dos Cruces buildings

What colour is suggested for the church?

Dark wood for floor etc but aren't the walls white enough already?

Well, I suppose if I was going to paint the exterior at this point I would start with an off-white and then dry brush with a pure white to add some shadow. Other than that I'm not sure what else you could do, maybe work in some dirt along the bottom edges.

I would use Malamute's buildings as a guideline, as they are perfect examples of adobe dwellings (and the colouring-in of)in my opinion.
I cannot seem to find a link at the moment.
Maybe someone else could point you in the right direction.

EDIT: Found it.
