LEGO Temple of Athena, inspired by the Parthenon of Athens, Greece. Yes, I drew a decal for the sculptures in the pediments. I'm sure a more talented LEGO builder could have come up with an all-bricks solution, but I compensated with my 2D drawing ability. Sorry.

long time builder here: you did a great job! as for the decals, well unless you were willing to build it to about half of life size or create a special brick, the decal was unavoidable. also, you managed to hold on to a set color scheme on a custom build. only one of my custom builds has a color scheme that is consistent throughout, so I'm impressed! you should show this to LEGO corp. , I'm sure they'd like it!

This is amazing; also love the fact that you took the painstaking effort and time to finalize everything, right down to the statue of Athena within. The Koi fishes on the roof edges, while not really Graeco-Roman nonetheless add a piquant touch to the gilded trims of the resurrected parthenon.

And don't worry about the pediment, the artwork actually adds a fleshed-out flavour to the overall product, a nice take on the "Lego" art-style. Anyways Thank You for the Stellar work here! :star::heart::star:
