Actually it shouldn't be strictly Babylonian as you are developing the lost world but better to stick to one architecture style. So is often useful to have some culture as a basement. You can check everything related to Assyrian and Mesopotamian art for your style.

As for statues Mesopotamians used to build large and massive statues:

Mostly they were built-in:

They also prefered high statues to small ones with big bases:

Hope this information will be useful for your project cause I like it's scale and detailedness.
