Re: Pharaoh's Palace
I have always been fascinated with ancient Egypt, and this is by far the most impressive Egyptian MOC I've ever come across. I really don't know where to begin with the praise, so I won't even try. The only thing I would change would be to maybe have tan plates outside the walls to represent sand at varying elevations.
I think I can sum up my impressions of this in one word:
Wow.

Re: Pharaoh's Palace
I'm not sure sand would really be accurate here. Currently the ruins of Tanis are on a silted plain. The ancient Tanis was on a branch of the Nile that has since silted up, but at the time it was probably pretty fertile and covered in silt.

Re: Pharaoh's Palace
0_o This is officially the best oriental/Egyptian creation ever. It's perfectly smooth, and it's all a uniform color. That is absolutely amazing. How long did it take you to build?

Re: Pharaoh's Palace
Congrats on another fantastically huge scene. The design and layout are well done. My only nitpick would be the area around the pyramid I would like to be sandy but naturally the artists choice is all that matters. Well done!

Re: Pharaoh's Palace
Very Inspiring! Those are alot of slope pieces you have there. I hope to build something similar to this one day. An excellent theme. 1 question though, what is the ark of the covenant doing in Egypt?
Re: Pharaoh's Palace
Very stunning detail inside. I am a sucker for MOC's you can play with... Well done!
