In this water elemental build, we wanted to practice making water surfaces. We had some koi tiles from the Dragon Stone Shrine that we placed around the foot of our waterfall. We also used a mix of clear, blue, and dark blue transparent tiles for contrast. For additional texture we scattered transparent-blue snowflake pieces across the water surface.

Realizing that the stingray had studs on its back, we jumped at the chance of having a minifigure ride it. We choose Nya to be the heroine of this scene since she is the Water Ninja. Underneath the waterfall is a blue energy core that powers a hidden portal carved into the stone base. On top of this waterfall is a transparent blue rock filled with blue crystals. This rock is attached to a hinge that Matti added as a play feature that will scatter the crystals below when tilted.

On the opposite side of the waterfall is a crystal rock face with an embedded dragon crest that hints at a hidden underground chamber that leads to the blue energy core. A small jungle lies beneath this wall with a tall olive green tree with magenta leaves. We liked how the contrasting leaf color and flowing organic curves of the tree trunk calls attention to this part of the build. At the end of this jungle are cliffside stairs that Matti built from plates wih cut corners that connect the jungle to the next area, Bruni’s forest.
