adde51 Posted July 14, 2019 Posted July 14, 2019 One of the more prominent places of worship in Mophet is the temple of Afe'aa. It's primary cartaker is a priestess by the name of Kahina, a woman of strong conviction and compassion. Along with Tabib, she is one of the more well-known people in the city and her opinions carry a lot of weight. Close up of the entrance of the temple where Kahina welcomes Tabib. A shot of the interior which features a large mosaic floor. Had a lot of fun making this temple/mosque. Started with the mosaic on the outside where I based it heavily on a pattern designed by @LittleJohn. For once I actually decided to do an interior, which was a bit of a challenge as I didn't want to compromise the look of the exterior. I then decided to go for a mosaic floor on the inside as well and came up with a pattern I was pretty happy with (small tutorial on my Flickr for anyone that might be interested). Thanks for watching, cheers! Quote
socalbricks Posted July 15, 2019 Posted July 15, 2019 (edited) Lovely build. Especially love the tile work! Edited July 15, 2019 by socalbricks Quote
Littleworlds Posted July 15, 2019 Posted July 15, 2019 Looks great! Additionally to the mosaic floor, which fits simply perfectly to the oriental theme of your build, the facade is also very well done with really good decorative ideas. Quote
Gideon Posted July 15, 2019 Posted July 15, 2019 Very nice ornate build overall, my favorite detail is the wallpaper stripe over the gate Quote
Kai NRG Posted July 15, 2019 Posted July 15, 2019 Nice work here especially on the various mosaic patterns! Really like the teeth on the edges of the tables (benches?) inside too - they give them a unique rounded look! Quote
Zilmrud Posted July 15, 2019 Posted July 15, 2019 This is a great and magical temple! I like the colour combos and the overall share of the temple. Then I like the use of that wallpaper printed bricks with the dark red. Great work mate! Quote
zoth33 Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 Very nice temple. I like the pillars and the way you used the 1x1 rounds, gives the temple some character. The tables or benches you have off to the sides look great as do the floors with the different pieces and coloring, makes them stand out. The doorway and the door itself are really well done, I like the color choices for the door and the use of those gold pieces in the middle. Nice looking figs too. Quote
Aurore Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 This is really impressive! I love the amount of detail you put in the decoration of the building. Quote
BrickofTime Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 Beautiful. I'm new to Eurobricks and blown away by the talent here. Quote

soccerkid6 Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 Stunning. I hugely enjoy seeing detailed middle eastern architecture, and this build is a great example of the possibilities that setting offers. Brilliant patterns, top-notch color use, plus an onion dome Superb table design inside too! Quote
