(Hopefully this fits in the historic forum, as, regardless of your religious views, it takes place in a historical setting)

This year I decided to challenge myself to make an Easter Garden out of Lego. As I built it, it became a series of Easter tableaus, showing different parts of the story (with slight adjustments made for each day):

Posted Image

The last supper.

Posted Image

Herod.

Pilate.

Judas betraying Jesus.

Posted Image

The Crucifixion

Posted Image

The... Saturday in which nothing much happens, I suppose.

Posted Image

The Resurrection

Posted Image

Wideshot.

Full album, if anyone wants to see more.
Thanks for looking :sweet:

It took me long enough to get my hands on a roman, I almost gave up any hope of ever finding a sleeping kid - luckily I got them both at the same time.

That's my favorite picture too. That last picture is quite a surprise. The size of the MOC is impressive, as is the whole build. You depicted the story very well here. :thumbup:

The scenes such as the last supper, etc, are all built into the other sides of the MoC. Thanks!

am I right that the last supper images etc are taken on the "reverse" side of the hill and that the entire MOC for the Easter story is thus 5 sides (4 faces and the top) of the baseplate ? - awesome concept ! well done.

You are indeed correct - it's more interesting than blank white wall faces!

Here are some pictures to show the concept better:

Wow! That's all put together.

Interesting way of depicting the last supper -> Christ's death -> Resurrection
It's really creative and well done.

This is really great. The whole thing is cool but I especially like that you used a fisherman at the last supper. And the angel is fantastic! (So cool you didn't use a stereotypical white feathery one)
What a neat idea. Building something like that would be a great way to share the Easter story with kids.

Yes, the fisherman holding the meat looks like Peter, to me - although being strictly accurate, that torso uses buttons 1600 years too early!

As for the angel, I don't have the pieces to do it feathery, so I decided to look at some different depictions of angels... glad I did.

I'd love to share it with kids, but as I'm 18, I think that's probably a few years down the line rather than right now... :tongue:

Well, my husband taught sunday School in college :tongue:

this would be great for a class. The jr hi class I teach would think this is awesome. Actually this is a great idea. Thanks for the inspiration, as my moc skills improve I might try something like this w/ jr highers.

Bingo Little,

Thank you so much for sharing your great MOC with us; it is very inspirational and tells the Easter story so succinctly. Well done. :thumbup:

My favourite photo is the one of Pilate washing his hands; very powerful.

Keep up the good work.

Very nice! Also great minifig you given Jesus!

Only by the resurrection I am not really sure about the minifig with the flames, but then again, it's a really great minifig! I love the flames looking like wings :thumbup:
