There now! You've done it again. In the first picture, all the blocks/tiles (at least on the floor) are the same color. In the third, there are distinctive colored patterns. That's why I asked earlier if you painted them somehow. So when you're getting close to done, do you replace some of them with colored ones to make the pattern?
I figure out the basic structure, and then finish with the colored blocks.

Is the structure between the two pits based on archaeology, or your imagination? (Or both?) :D

I've actually spent the last couple hours learning more about stepwells, thanks to your magnificent recreation. I was surprised to find that there are a large number of them still existing in India, in various stages of disrepair. Some of them are quite beautiful in spite of their lack of care or maintenance. I hope India can find the resources to protect these sites while there's still anything left of them. :(

Yes, they are really unique and fascinating. It would be a shame if they are not preserved.

They're fascinating. I checked out U tube and was amazed at how many are left.Unfortunatly a lot of them have been left to decay with no protection or conservation.
