Here's my entry! This is the scred Kinkaku-ji temple in Kyoto, Japan. It is based on the Landmark Series.

It's interesting to see how the same building can yield so different results in LEGO. I like your take on it, with more detailing on the walls . Good luck in the competition.

Great technique with the tile grills set into upside down plates. I didn't even know you can do that!

Carson! You chose a YELLOW building????! I have some PAB wall pieces I could have lent

Only kidding. This is beautifully delicate. As Cecile said, wonderful to see two takes of the same building, especially one I'm not familiar with.
