    This week, we’re back in the Wild Imaginary West with a riverboat captain who got off course and foolishly decided to wander into a river system near monster territory. The monster that happened to find him first was a massive anaconda.

      There's a stop motion animation channel I watch (legoanimations6370) with a recurring character like that who add s a sort of "oh no, what's he do *this* time vibe to each video... but the Wild Imaginary West has such a great backstory and canon, I don't know if it's necessary!

    I feel like one of the most underrated aspects of these videos is the sound design and lighting of the final product. The subtle crickets in the background and the one directional lighting simulating moonlight does a lot to set the tone and atmosphere for the diorama. It's just a beautiful detail that I feel like gets overlooked

    • @missjddrage1111
      @missjddrage1111 Před 4 dny

      I hope it's not overlooked. It's the best part of the video.. the slow zoom, the little music and lighting is key. It's tremendous care to detail and, you're right, does deserve recognition.

    I really like how you've started incorporating the electrical switches into the build to disguise them. It may be worth trying out different switch types depending on the disguise, where buttons or knobs would be easier to hide.

    • @SlartiMarvinbartfast
      @SlartiMarvinbartfast Před 6 měsíci +4

      I very much agree, I love the hidden switches, it's so much better than an obvious switch sticking out of the base, background, etc. And yes, it's worth looking into different types of switch - there are some low profile push button switches for example which may be more suitable in some cases.

    “After hiding the switch under a barrel, it was time to move on” does not do justice to the creativity of incorporating the switch in such a fun and intelligent way. Nor the effort in building the little barrel is such a way that the switch works perfectly. Your work is amazing because of little touches like this.

    Looks amazing! It's great to hear a little more lore about the places that aren't covered in dangerous beasts all the time. It's interesting that we sometimes forget how "crunched" time is and how many famous and influential people who are responsible for today's technology and culture were jammed right up against a chunk of continent that was still "Wild and untamed" even in the real world. Great work!

    • @user-lh4vt6pj9w

      the story would go something like: the banditos got word of a shipment of a new kind of Edison technology being transported by a group of parliamentarians and attacked it. or if you want to use prospectors it could go something like this: a group of banditos got word that a haul of valuable minerals is being transported by unsuspecting prospectors and not well armed are transporting them! so the banditos pounce but are met with a surprising amount of force! if you would like to please use my idea i think it would get you a lot of views and you could have a lot of fun with it!
