The temple of the sun god Verose

[zoth33]

Heron is a powerful mage who is entrusted with the protection of the sun orb in the outskirts of the city of Thalmar.  His sun warriors and the scimitar wielding brother hood of the vipers protect this precious artifact.  Times are changing in the world and evil eyes are set on taking the orb for their own malicious ideas.  Heron knows there is something or some one watching and he can feel a presence that keeps pressing him like heavy air after a thunderstorm.  Heron can sense a battle coming and must prepare for what he fears may come.  There has already been unrest in the city of Thalmar and people are fearing an ancient evil has started to return to reclaim the land that was once theirs.  

 

Comments and criticism welcome.  There will be more to this story coming.

Nice MOC! I particularly like the minifigure that I assume is Heron. His hair and beard combo really works ?

Thanks yes that is Heron.  I used the extra beard from the viking in the series 20 minifigures.  I thought Heron looked better with the beard than without, I have been tinkering with different mages and I really like his look.  Also the armor from the Ninjago fire snakes is so useful.

Really nice!  I think one of my favorite parts is that door shape in the last picture.  Really captures the style.  You put the CMFs to good use, too, and they are uniform enough to look like an organized guard force.  The shape of the temple with the long curves looks great, and I like how the temple to the sun god has gold at the top!  If you have time, I'd get a couple of small LED lamps or flashlights and aim them at the build.  This is definitely one that could be flooded with lightning and look spectacular for it.  One other suggestion would be to look at ornamenting the space above the doorway with the orange haired guy.  A tan technic gear, or some of those tooth pieces that are vertical in tan, or even just some bricks with studs on the side to put some 1x1 tan plates there could ornament the build a bit.  Really nice work, though, and good use of those new tan ornamented pieces on the top underneath the gold.
