Hi Erik Thanks for the tip - Banker's book(s) look like fun. A change of setting might draw me back into the fantasy genre. I can see from amazon that he has written quite a few in the Ramayana series. Chris (22 years ago, 8-Jun-04, to lugnet.build.ancient)

I've opened up a lot of Adventurers India sets, even built some, but I never considered this much of an area for building until just recently. First of all there is K.K. Quah's excellent Taj mahal.

Hello Erik, thanks for your compliments and annotations. I surely would like to have some more tan slopes ;-) And in using them I discovered that you don't really need the tan bricks to build the original Pyramid, so that does give some perspective (...)

Very impressive! I love how you've captured the topography there. However, the scale is soo small that it's tough to build buildings with. I think I prefer your scale in the Ostia MOC.
