I have always been fascinated with ancient Egypt, and this is by far the most impressive Egyptian MOC I've ever come across. I really don't know where to begin with the praise, so I won't even try. The only thing I would change would be to maybe have tan plates outside the walls to represent sand at varying elevations.

I think I can sum up my impressions of this in one word:

Wow.

yes, that would definitely give it a more completed look.

I'm not sure sand would really be accurate here. Currently the ruins of Tanis are on a silted plain. The ancient Tanis was on a branch of the Nile that has since silted up, but at the time it was probably pretty fertile and covered in silt.

Amazing, don't see too many Ancient Egypt creations, and this one is first class.

0_o This is officially the best oriental/Egyptian creation ever. It's perfectly smooth, and it's all a uniform color. That is absolutely amazing. How long did it take you to build?

That is an awesome MOC. It has beauty, personality, and it is huge.

I do want to comment on what you said though. You meant latest MOC not last MOC right? :lol:

It took me a little more than two months.
Thank you for your kind words.

Congrats on another fantastically huge scene. The design and layout are well done. My only nitpick would be the area around the pyramid I would like to be sandy but naturally the artists choice is all that matters. Well done!

Very Inspiring! Those are alot of slope pieces you have there. I hope to build something similar to this one day. An excellent theme. 1 question though, what is the ark of the covenant doing in Egypt?
