Except for the roof on the spire and the color it is very similar to "The Little Brown Church in the Vale"located in Nashua, Iowa.  The namesake of the song by it's name. In latter years was sung by the Statler Bros.

UNCLEBUTCH:

Very well done. To me the windows look great.

My only suggestion is the the church property looks a little unkempt, but of course that could be the case if the congregation has dwindled and the funds aren't there.

Wow! That is a very nice Church, great job. My only concern is you have buried people in behind the church right in the middle of the septic field. They may get a little browned off about that.Smile, Wink & Grin

not as elaborate as Rich's. I'm not 100% happy with the windows but if you use the 3 ft. rule better then a dark hole
