    Good idea. I think if it weren't all alone, there would be less of a tendency to think of it as inappropriate. It does seem rather gargantuan in comparison to the pyramids, though. And I might be mistaken, but weren't most Mesoamerican pyramids flat on top? I didn't think they came to a point, as there were typically religious rituals conducted in a little building on the peak.

    Very nice sketch! Do some more!

    Thank you.
    You are right, the Mesoamerican were flat at the top as far as I know. This is not a strict copy of these cultures, more an homage.
    I've already made another sketch for a two-cultures-clash map, but I will finish this first before I come up with it.

    EDIT: more towers added
