For the Sudan.  Looks a bit generic, what kind of details, add one should I do?

Wow, I don't have any suggestions for you as that's not my area of expertise but wanted to say that it looks pretty damn cool as it sits, will be a nice addition to any table. Looking forward to seeing where you go with it and thanks for sharing.

Partially cover the building with something like sculptamold or similar, having an uneven build up around the walls and some on the top would break up the look along with some rougher sand mixes for it.

Also adding things that might look like other things from the site mixed in such as pottery pieces.

Maybe check this out: https://theconversation.com/sudans-forgotten-pyramids-risk-being-buried-by-shifting-sand-dunes-159596 (https://theconversation.com/sudans-forgotten-pyramids-risk-being-buried-by-shifting-sand-dunes-159596)

Sudan has its own collection of pyramids and they are distinctly different than those in Egypt.  Hope the link helps.

Maybe a giant pair of Fitzgeraldian spectacles?

Yep, I based the color and brick style on those.   ;)

Yeah, I'm gonna spackle some of it.  Good advice
