Ninjago Monastery (Ninja month MOC)

[LuxorV]

It took me some time and a dedicated Ninja month to decide and build this MOC. It is based on the TV show rendition of the Ninjago Monastery. Though I had to limit to a part of the courtyard and the proportions are not perfect, I hope you'll like it.

Here is the presentation pic, heavily 'shopped:

This is the actual MOC, more or less a Hollywood styled background for some scenes I wanted to recreate:

I am pretty happy with how the railings and door turned out.

The ninja are sparring to determine who will become the Green Ninja (from the episode Rise of the Snakes):

I tried to recreate the dragon pattern in the pavement, but I feel I was successful only in part.

Training gear in action; the dragon statue/central spinning gear is one of my favourite features in the Monastery.

A better look on the 'dummies wheel'.

More pics can be found in this BS gallery (when moderated).

As always, comments and critics are welcome.

Great idea! I've always wondered what a LEGO rendition of the Monastery from the show would look like, you really captured the feel for it! Great job on the door especially, love the way the training wheels, etc. actually pop up!

Thanks for the feedback guys.

I really enjoyed making this, so I'm happy others like it.

It think this should be decked out, complete with the rest of the building and at least a portion of the mountain. I love it to death already and am very pleased someone even bothered to MOC it. Awesome job LuxorV!
