And one more little step. Here are the arcades For the golden knocker I had to kill a Schleich lion. So now only the temple is missing and of course some smaller and bigger props and several costumes. Meanwhile I started to work on a story too. And although I'm just at the very beginning, I already noticed that I need about 10 more locations. So it isn't over yet. (A sandal movie is really a sumptuous matter) So I will do for some locations only simple improvisations and probably I have to work with some photo backdrops as well.

I am amazed at your attention to scale and details! Please do not recycle this. It should remain on permenant display. Thank you for sharing your project, not only with photographs but also in sharing amazing methods like the water fountain! Best Regards.

Well to be true, I'm not really a fan of those images, because they tend to distroy the illusion. But they are able to give an orientation and they give an idea of the size of the project as well. So, here are some of those:

The very scale of it is mind boggling. I gotta know how big is it and how big is the place you live? I'm considering moving the wife out!!lol I know this is one hellava task but you are going to make lots of folks happy with this. I am sure looking forward to the story, which reminds me, What does Memento Mori translate into? The Craig Daniel figure is terrific. I first saw him I thought he had roman hair The gladiator is probably the greatest I've seen to date. AWESOME!!! " I won't be lied to and I won't be laid a hand upon"

And there's one toy room in it. At the moment totally occupied by the subura project. Memento mori is a Latin phrase meaning "Remember you will die". In ancient Rome, the words are believed to have been used on the occasions when a Roman general was parading through the streets during a victory triumph. Standing behind the victorious general was his slave, who was tasked to remind the general that, though his highness was at his peak today, tomorrow he could fall or be more likely brought down. The servant conveyed this by telling the general that he should remember, "Memento mori." It is further possible that the servant said instead, "Respice post te! Hominem te memento!": "Look behind you! Remember that you are but a man!

I have heard about the whispering into the ear legend. A task very risky for a slave I'd think, hate to be the slave on a bad day. ha!* *Just incredible, I can't say it enough. Who is the figure at the door, knocker in hand? I always like having unusual looking figures vs's pretty boys and GQ models.* *Is this mostly carved foam ? The tile work and brick/masonery is amazingly detailed.* " I won't be lied to and I won't be laid a hand upon"

I've seen that mini-Dunedin in a shot or two before, usually in some construction garb or some-such. Maybe Mr. Super-dio can shed some light on the sculpt/sculptor (though I gotta say, I'm not real happy trying to envoke another artist's name, lol, hey...I bet I'm cheaper...)

The head sculpt was done by Chan Ada. For the bricks I used a material called Heki-Dur. It's kind of a foam material and it's very easy to tool in some structures with a pencil and a ruler.
