Brilliant work Casper, Portunis has always been one of my favorite mocs, and the new pics make me appreciate the details even more. The temple looks great from every angle. The only problem I have with you, is that you don't build enough! -Keith (20 years ago, 9-Apr-04, to lugnet.build.ancient)

(...) I know Casper very good, and you know, it's not HIS fault that he doesn't build enough ancient-work... it's Lego's!?? :-) ?? Yes!

(...) I like the flat tiles on the roof, the coffered ceiling, and the trophies (shields?) around the inside. Also the use of corrugated bricks as columns. I haven't been able to think any Lego piece to represent fluted drums like that. My only (...) (20 years ago, 17-Apr-04, to lugnet.build.ancient)

(...) Simple asnwer... I don't like colour to much :) In grey the structure and lines of the building stand out better, so I kept it that way. With colours it very easy the look gets to "buzy".
