[WIP] Making of an Egyptian building of the new empire

It is a decor designed to remain along a table edge to represent the first enclosure of a temple that would otherwise necessarily be too large for the dimensions allowed by the DBA rules.

The structure of the façade, the obelisks and the columns are made up of Playmobil toys with Egyptian theme. Pieces of cardboard have been added to give this decor a more realistic look and a harmony compared to the side walls in featherboard.

A specific subject will be devoted to this element of decoration when it is completed. I am currently tinkering with the toy I have at home and waiting for the same toy, ordered on ebay, in order to retrieve a second obelisk and two additional columns. The picture below is that of the toy ordered on ebay:





It was necessary to tweak the two blue squares serving as buttons for opening the doors of the Playmobil toy. The eyes were indeed carved in the wrong direction.





Two columns are arranged to check the scale and future harmony of the whole.




The scenery is still far from being completed but, on the other hand; It is well advanced. It is still lacking the inhabitants to dispose inside and the villagers making visible to the notable. It also lacks the finishes (carpet of rush, doors, flocking and flags on the two frontal masts)

The interior of the building is designed to be decorated with rush carpets and civilian figures: dancers, seneth players (Dark fable brand). I would also like to include a swimming pool but I am afraid I do not have enough space.

Do not blame me for the traits they were traced by the merchant. ^^ (photo: Dark fable)
