Doctor Strange's Sanctum Sanctorum

[The Librarian]

As soon as I got my hands on the official Doctor Strange set, I wanted to expand it. One day, I hope I'll have the bricks to build a properly big chunk of the full house, but in the meantime, please enjoy this small diorama.

WOW,.. thats awesome,.,,,...  you nailed dormammu too 

[Littleworlds]

I have the set and it feels indeed a bit incomplete. You made a really cool diorama out of it, which reminds me that I should tinker with mine a bit as well  Well done! 

[SpiderJazz]

Awesome! Love what you did with the set. My favorite part is the iconic window of Sanctum Santorum. Awesome!

nice i may have to steal some of these ideas for my rather empty petshop- santorum mod

[xboxtravis7992]

Wow, such simple and small improvements turned a this good set into a great set with your build! I love that Dormamu too...

"Dormamu, I've come to bargain!" 

[Umbra-Manis]

Great improvements! This makes a much better display piece! I think tiles on the railings would be even better, also.

[NXS7]

The mirror... Is that official LEGO, or a non-purist piece, if real where could one acquire it?

But anyhows, great work, great expansion of the set

[carebear]

WOW!!!

Love the action-pose

Great work!!!

Greetings

I can't claim all the credit for the window design - it's borrowed very much wholesale from the set, just bulked out a little. The use of those blades was an inspired bit of set design!

Tiles undoubtedly would; unfortunately, at the time I built this, my black tiles were otherwise occupied!

Totally purist - it's this, reversed: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=2494pb09#T=C, in the same frame it came with for this set: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=4721-1#T=S&O={}

My favorite bit is the trans orange antenna beams. They work perfectly there. 

[Numbuh1Nerd]

That is fantastic!! Tilting the window down was a really nice touch. I've been wanting to add a little bit of extra detail to my Sanctum, too, and there's a lot of inspiration to be had here! 

[scoiltreasa]

How are your blades in the window attached?

[kaelthas]

Wow this is nice! I loved the inclined window.

[LEGO Train 12 Volts]

Absolutely stunning ...very dynamic scene!

The beams are amazing!

[Catanas]

This really is awesome! I like how simple and clean you've kept is so you can really focus on the action, which also is awesome. I do agree with Umbra-Manis about the railings though.

It's actually quite nice to see few mocs cropping up again in this forum recently. I don't think it has nearly enough and I might start dabbling myself again when I get some time!
