Posted April 12, 20168 yr Hello guys, this is my latest moc for a greek contest (fantasy - epic theme). Tell me your opinion and thoughts about it! This is my first big Moc, so.. be gentle! Tnk you and enjoy it! __________________________________________________________________________________ “Invoke the gods” (ask the help of the gods) “Χρῲ τοις Θεοίς..” (Νa επικaλείσaι τους θεούς.) Solon (Greek: Σόλων; c. 638 – c. 558 BC) In Greek mythology, Poseidon is the god of the land and the sea, rivers, sources and drinking water .. With his trident could both create rough seas and calm waters.. His symbols were the trident, fish and occasionally the horse or the bull.. According to legend.. the Poseidon seduced Medusa in the temple of Athena.. the goddess was so furious with it.. so she transformed Medusa into monster.. The ugliness was such.. that whoever looked at her face.. turned into stone .. Medusa wanted to revenge Poseidon now.. so she kills the priestesses and the soldiers who guard the temple .. Their only hope now is to seek the help of the gods.. But to be heard by the gods, they need a sacrifice.. Hermes.. the messenger of the Gods, is there and waiting to hear the invocation to the gods and to carry the message ..
April 12, 20168 yr Excellent MOC. The only detail I feel needs work is the division between light and dark grey in the cliff. The place where it changes is too a bit too flat, particularly in the middle of the cliff. Adding a dark grey slope slightly higher up would really improve it in my opinion. Everything else is just about perfect. Edit: Especially since it is your first large MOC, i'm impressed. Edited April 12, 20168 yr by BrickCurve
April 12, 20168 yr Amasing creation! I loved all the little details here and there, among with the temple! Great job!
April 12, 20168 yr Beautiful! In high school my favourite part of history was ancient greek mythology.
April 12, 20168 yr Excellent build my friend! This is a nice blend between scenery/landscaping and minifig posing! Well done! Exactly how many round plates did you use? :p
April 12, 20168 yr Really nice Greek temple The use of gold wings as decoration is clever, and I like the tree

April 21, 20168 yr Author Great job Mpyromaxos, the setup of the landscape is great, the figs you created is pure win and a great temple at the top of it :wub: The cave is a great touch too! Tnk you my friend! Flying warriors torso, was just perfect for this scene! And the temple for first try came up very good!
April 22, 20168 yr Yes, this is one perfect MOC that deserves praise not only for its atmosphere but also for the great layout. Congratulations!
April 22, 20168 yr I am absolutely stunned by this thing... Amazing stuff! 2 things though: 1) This is the first time i saw a bow done like this, what a simple and brilliant idea! 2) If there is ONE tiny tiny thing i'd improve here then it may be the trans clear 2x2 risers you're using for the archer, i feel 2 2X5 bricks would look cleaner here
April 23, 20168 yr Author Yes, this is one perfect MOC that deserves praise not only for its atmosphere but also for the great layout. Congratulations! Tnk you very much! Nice work! I really lie your rockwork and water effects! Thank you! I am absolutely stunned by this thing... Amazing stuff! 2 things though: 1) This is the first time i saw a bow done like this, what a simple and brilliant idea! 2) If there is ONE tiny tiny thing i'd improve here then it may be the trans clear 2x2 risers you're using for the archer, i feel 2 2X5 bricks would look cleaner here Tnk you! I'me glad you like it! Well.. at first I wanted to give him to holding a stick instead of a bow, but that day i had bought two cows.. and after a little experimentation.. I saw that it came out very nice, so I tried it, and the result came up very good i think..!! Now, for the trans-clear pieces you're absolutely right that 1x2x5 is better .. but unfortunately I only had 1x2 available .. Edited April 23, 20168 yr by Mpyromaxos
April 26, 20168 yr Very tidy build, nothing looks forced or over-done which in my opinion is the essence of a great MOC. Well done.
April 27, 20168 yr Excellent work here! The dark red and tan go very well together for the temple and I really like the rockwork Very nice tree too
