Very nice, Lenny. I agree with others that the tree and the fresco statues are the highlights, but these are overall just very good scenes. I like how you've outfitted Buddha with the cloaks and red rubber bands. Looking forward to more in this (...) (19 years ago, 30-Sep-05, to lugnet.build.ancient, FTX)

(...) Hey Lenny, Outstanding! I think the biggest tip of the hat, though, goes to the beautiful and wonderful Tonia, as those sheep are really cute. The wrench piece as shepherd's crook is very inspired as well. Bruce (19 years ago, 29-Sep-05, to lugnet.build.microscale, lugnet.castle, FTX)

Built for Tom Rafert for NWBC as an award. (URL) Take notice of the door design - I spent a while doing that.

And those people probably acted like a combination spiritual guide/general scribe of their tribes. So what we see is a combination of (...) (19 years ago, 29-Sep-05, to lugnet.build.ancient, FTX)

Hey Lenny, These are awesome! My favorite details are the tree in the Buddha scene (how sturdy is that, btw?) and the statues etc above the stairs in the Greek temple. I'm looking forward to seeing the further installments in this series. Bruce (19 years ago, 29-Sep-05, to lugnet.build.ancient, FTX)
