Aztec Temple in the Jungle with Moving Waterfall

[wild crown]

Hi all. This is my astec temple in the jungle. As a small child I was totally fan of Indiana Jones and a lot of my first builds in the early nineties were jungle temples where I could play the Indiana Jones tales. Now that I've evolved into a better builder, I wanted to make an adult version of the same temples. I now have enough nature bricks and I could replace the yellow of the nineties by tan and dark tan now. I've displayed it at two conventions allready (futura in blokjes and Elftopia). If you want to see more, my blog and instagram handle are in my bio.

I am humbled at this amazing work of art. The falling waterfall is just an insane detail.

Holy, this is actually incredible, I love anything ancient and different cultures, I am currently building an ancient Pharaoh egyptian temple but I know I could not even remotely get as skilled as you in building these incredible structures! Keep it up

How long have you been building the Temple?

/How many hours does it take

[wild crown]

the building itself went rather fast. I think I did it in about 20 hours

any time i open the moc-section this thing shows up and its allways mind boggling

when i think of a 1k dollar lego set this is something id imagine and not the shitty death star pancake

Epic. Palette, part choices, blending. Really natural looking.

thanks a lot 🙂 I'm thinking about completing more of the island in order to make it a giant display instead of a large display 🙂

Holy shit

[wary cairn]

how to get so much money 😭

[wild crown]

a lot of the bricks are from my childhood 🙂 I haven't got much budget to spend on new LEGO, so If I buy bricks, mostly I don't buy sets, but I visit a physical LEGO store and buy a box from the PAB wall. I still think that's the best value per brick.

[tall bay]

Wow, that looks amazing! 🔥

[wild crown]

thank you 🙂

This weekend I'm touring with this moc. It'll be for display on the Bricks and Blocks fair in Avelgem(Belgium)

[urban bone]

It’s beautiful!! 👏👏

[gritty quarry]

I am curious how it moves, what did you use if you don't mind sharing

[wild crown]

I’ll try to make a video of this later this afternoon, but it’s basically a Technic track with plates mounted on top.

This is amazing
