Sorry for the delay, but I was not certain on what kind of scene to make...
Now everything is OK, I've got the idea and tomorrow I will post the first screen shot.
The subject I chose is a scene that mixes Mayan & Aztec civilization architecture.
Yeah, of course they are only influences in the scene because the concept is not a real one, you can’t find this place on Earth
Cheers

As I said before, I don't intend to make a copy after Mayan temples or something like this.
Read carefully what I wrote above
