- I really like these dot patterns, too. - eilonwy77
- I thought they would look like sea shells, and give a wavy texture to the underwater palace.
Atlantis
The Lost City of Atlantis. Tucked away, in a far removed corner of
the ocean lies Atlantis. Long gone are the evil rulers who brought
about the destruction of this great civilization. There is a new
ruler who seems to have everything under control. One might say the
place is looking down right happy. Just don't mention sushi to any of
the locals.
The idea for the seabed came from Soren's fabulous Atlantis MOC that
was at Brickcon recently. You can see his work here. www.flickr.com/photos/32865345@N02/6478779507/in/photostream
I should also mention that the mermaid sculptures were from a design I
saw at Legoland a few years back.
And finally it should be apparent that there are a few design elements
that were inspired by browsing through Katie Walker's photostream,
which you can find here.

Be sure to check out the video as there is lots of animation!
Also, you can see it in person, as it will be at the Surrey, B.C.
museum for the Vancouver Lego Club's Mythology show from July 2012
through to September 15th.
