A builder named JanwillemLoonen created a LEGO Ideas submission featuring four Egyptian gods: Ra, Anubis, Sobek, and Thoth. This project reflects the cultural significance and beauty of Egyptian mythology with great attention to detail. The models exhibit a classic relief style, characteristic of Egyptian art. Each god is around 6-5 inches tall, making them suitable for display. The color scheme aligns with traditional Egyptian art, using rich hues and patterns to enhance authenticity. This creation fills a gap left by earlier LEGO sets that did not fully honor Egyptian mythology.
The four deities presented here, Ra, Anubis, Sobek, and Thoth, represent a carefully curated pantheon that covers the major aspects of Egyptian spiritual life: solar worship, death and afterlife, fertility and protection, and wisdom and writing.
The attention to iconographic detail here borders on obsessive, and I mean that as the highest compliment possible.
The builder's decision to render them in the classic Egyptian relief style, where figures appear in profile with forward-facing torsos, demonstrates both artistic understanding and technical LEGO mastery.
The color palette stays true to Egyptian artistic conventions with rich blues, golds, and earth tones dominating the composition, punctuated by strategic use of red for Ra's solar disk and green for Sobek's crocodilian features.
