Temple Of Poseidon

[Jellyeater]

Last time (in this topic https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/168782-moc-ss-venture/  ) I promised that I'll show you where our favored adventurers team is swimming. So here they are. :-)

Johnny Thunder and Dr Kilroy go to the bottom of the sea to find Poseidon's Trident.

Please listen to soundtrack https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0vFUxE3SrM and find all of octopuses. :-)

Whoah, this is amazing!  How did you manage the backdrop? -- is it something behind the set, or did you add it later with Photoshop?  I love the picture from above, looking down on the boat and the sunken temple, but -- I'm terrified that those two plastic pillars will buckle and break!  I also really like the pile of pieces in the corner to look like a ragged seafloor.

Thank you for visit. :-)

This is polypropylene photographic background, and some Photoshop. :-)

Very nicely done sunken temple scene!  I love all the details, especially the entirely period-accurate diving bell & air-delivery hoses that were actually used on those old-school deep-sea diving suits.

Maybe the Mermaid from the CMF series 9 could have been there... And why not Poseidon Himslef, in the form of the Ocean King, also from CMF.

Amazing MOC! Incredibly detailed! I especially like how you made the Ship "float" using those transparent pieces.

Wow! Darn Cool MOCs there! Love the sunken ruined temple! The ship is nicely detailed too! And definitely dig the decoration/foliage of the ocean floor! 

[GeoBrick]

Marvelous build!

[Duxx]

Amazing

 

checked your other works on flikr, great stuff men :)

[Thedarkmaster2]

I love the detail of the crabs fighting each other

[Jellyeater]

Thank you, for all this kind words. I really want to start another MOC after that. :-)

[Actor Builder]

this is real fun! I love the diving bell, haven't seen a MOC of that in ages. The soundtrack was a nice touch.

Great photography!

You've done a great job on the temple and the plants.

The details on the temple ruins are really well done and cohesive--the damaged sediment, and the color variance especially. The characters are all well placed, and the addition of the diving bell is nice.

The rust effect on the boat is really impressive, as is the temple itself. I'm a sucker for Adventurer MOCs, and this one's really something else. I also noticed you included Pippin with the pith helmet from the Collectible Minifigure Series, and I'm shocked I haven't tried that yet. 

Any possibility we could get a better look at the ship? 

[ArcanoKPO]

Fantastic... great

[neonic]

Like it a lot. Great temple with those 'tan'? parts. It gives it a real weatherd look. Amazing plants/coral too. That plant with all those fishes is a nice idea.

[jimmynick]

I know the MOC is named after the temple, but I really love the ship. Those rust streaks are beautiful. Great work and thanks for sharing!

Hi Kintobor,

may I ask which minifig from the CMS you meant?

This one https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?M=col200#T=S&O={"iconly":0} is the only one I found which has not the classic, but the modern pith helmet. But the one on the ship seems to have a green torso which this lady does not have. 

Thanks and cheers,

Great work! The temple is very nice piece of bricks.
