For my monthly Patreon art challenge, the theme voted on was Hideouts and Outposts. I always like to participate and decided to build a mountaintop lookout outpost. It was inspired by Devil's Head Lookout which is not far from where I live in Colorado.
All my patron's beautiful submissions are also at the end of the video!

The tiny telescope is extremely cute
Yes, I am tiny and cute -///-
Hey Studs
Hi studson
i think its average
Oh hey! Nice seeing you here! Boylei and you are my inspiration!!!
I was in my local hobby shop in Birmingham, UK the other day and there was a kid with his dad there asking if they had any American frontiersman kits. They were saying that they watch this CZcamsr who makes imaginary Wild West dioramas with giant monsters. Obviously I had to go over and say hi to my fellow BHT fans!
Unfortunately they didn't have anything like that at the store but I hope they/you managed to track something down!
I'm so sorry for you that you have to live in Birmingham of all places, hope you can escape soon
My imagination goes wild thinking of the stories the people who've occupied the outpost will have to tell😲
Thank you for the great video!🤩
i imagine the watchman goes to the town inn and tells stories of eagles carrying away hikers and how he sees shapes fly past the moon while looking in his telescope
@@genericuser984 and how windy and cold it is 😆🥶
@@genericuser984 oh yes! I bet not all the people living in town will think the watchman exaggerates too much...
But then commission him to be a guide on a hike none the less (a offer he'll refuse due to knowing the dangers a little too well).
You mean, The Haunted Outpost?
Fantastic as always, love the addition of the telescope. Maybe now we need a second mountain peak complete with giant eagle's nest and accompanying giant eagle's egg hunters?
I like the recent theme of a sci-fi, wild west, and kind of post apocalyptical models. I think they're really unique
The Imaginary Wild West is my favorite. I love watching the world grow. It's the main reason I subscribed I never want to miss one.
I love the little stories you tell while building! In that context, the gold mesh isn't wasted, it contributed to the story you've came up with
Okay, this makes it to one of my favorite Boylei builds. I love the detail, the colors, the new pipe pieces, the fun layout, etc. Really cool and inspiring addition
Love it from Thailand 🇹🇭
This looks amazing! Love the different weather biomes you've been creating recently and how different the architecture ends up
This was cool. I loved how he went into detail and showed us the process of the painting
I’ve have Covid and the last few days I’ve been watching your videos and your videos give me a smile
I love the precarious yet sturdy look of this outpost! Imaginary Wild West just keeps getting better.
Love the patrons builds too.
This is probably my favorite Weird Wild West diorama so far. I love the precariousness of its location, the light dusting of summer snow (like you'd see up on the peaks in CO or AK), and the building looks like it's been in use for a long time.
Excellent build, Boylei.
That little telescope is on point! Love it.
I love everything about this build, but for some reason the most satisfying part is the proportions. Something about the verticality and compactness of the whole thing is just awesome.
This looks so cool. The colors really work with it. Also the melting snow just fits with it. Keep doing what you are doing.
I am so happy your continuing the wild west series, i’ve been waiting for your next video because i love these them. Please keep making these videos, they are amazing!!
Congratulations! Your vid’s are great!
The outpost is a great addition to the Wild imaginary West. In addition, I'm also glad that you mentioned that the outpost keeper bird-watches with giant eagles because I've been thinking about how awesome it'd be to have some kind of giant bird added to this universe since we've only had ground-specific and water-specific creatures so far. I think making a giant eagle or hawk would be a nice video idea for the future!
My thoughts exactly! There needs to be a fairly large predatory bird in the WIW to justify the Pinkertons using those weaponized balloons. Also, something has to be carrying off all those hikers and small animals that keep disappearing...🤔
A massive congratulations to you man. Superb build as always!
Love the illusion that the building is high up in the mountains. I call it fantastic!!! You Sir are a genius.
loving the subtle details that show growth, the new ingredients in the terrain paste INTERACTING WITH THEIR PHYSICAL COUNTERPARTS, I've tinkered with premiere for a long time and the amount of work that sounds like makes my head hurt. so either our boy boylei has surpassed me, or is immensely committed to making quality content. both are fairly likely. keep up the great work :)
Brilliant bird watching tower...That tiny telescope made the build real....This is a great edition to your wild west town....
I love your videos, they calm my anxiety and spark my creativity. Congratulations on 500k.
6:15 So cool that you were inspired by Devil’s Head Lookout as that is less than 11 miles from my house as the Imaginary Wild West semi-mechanical crow flies. The trail head is 24 miles because I have to wind through the mountains.
I love all these builds - they're so imaginative and interesting, I can't get enough! One thing I'd love to see is some indication of the wilders using the parts from the huge beasts that they hunt to decorate or fix their machines and homes :)
This rinds me of The Shambles in York England it's the way the building get larger the higher up it goes. I live near The Shambles and was surprised to find out the shops in it are 700 years old and the street is over a thousand years old! Damn that's amazing they are still standing and working shops 😯
I love how you make it so realistic!
And congrats on 500k!!!
Great to see you have reached 500k. You deserve it man.
Boylie hobby time, you deserve all of the subscribers you have gotten. Thank you for inspiring me and having a nice relaxed community.
Love the addition of the text to give the bird watcher more personality. I'm interested in seeing the eagles he is willing to risk his life to see.
Still working my way through the series, but my favorite suggestion so far, is the redwoods/owl idea. I'd love to see more California scenery.
És um grande artista parabéns pelo seu trabalho
Didn't know about the "snow" product you used. This would be great for WW2 Dioramas! Thanks for the great work.
fantastic build. Love the sense of weight and gravity the cables lend to the structure.
Here I am asking again for a four seasons diorama with plants and animals🦫☀️🌳, and as always good build.
I've been following your wild west series since the beginning and I am always blown away and inspired to pick up model making again. Thanks for sharing your craft and ideas!
Congratulations on 500K!! Your videos are awesome and inspiring!! You deserve all that comes your way!! Well done as always with this new video!!
These sci-fi old west town pieces are amazing
Great build, with the ending music during the final reveal, I couldn't help but notice that it would be right at home in a Borderlands game.
That's the most precarious building I've ever seen. I would love to live there.
Seeing these videos is the highlight of my week and I am blown away with the scale and technique for every single one
Delightful ,absolutely gorgeous model .I love the gravity-defying aspect of the construction. thanks for sharing ! Wales UK.😍😍
U absolutely deserve the 500k, love your videos a lot and everything u make, really liking the Wild West story u got going on and congrats.
THIS IS SO COOL!! The first thing I thought of when I looked at the thumbnail for this video was of the devils head look out! I cheered when he said it was the inspiration for this build! 10/10
Great Stuff. I think you should try doing something tropical. Maybe a hunter being hunted by a tiger.
Love your content dude amazing work as always
Gorgeous build, I love the way the guitar strings worked. A little suggestion, if you want the black base area smoother, paint the wood, especially the end grain, with a few layers of PVA (can sand after it dries) to seal up the grain, and sand up to 150-180 before painting it
Ok, that telescope is the most adorable thing I've ever seen! Great build!
This channel is a safe haven for me in this turbulent times.. thank you!
The bag with metal pieces is essential. I use those metal pieces all the time. They help repairing broken figures and models, they help reinforcing articulations or plastic long beams, and also they add detail to your projects. Thanks for the video.
The telescope was a nice add on, but it also. To me looked like a gun cannon, that could also be used in your wild west diorama to fight monsters. Just a thought! Great video!⭐👍💕
This is probably my favorite one so far. I just like the way it looks and the little Telescope is awesome!!!
You had me at Mongolia. ☺️ Congratulations with your creative work.
It looks really great. From the thumbnail and the early stages I wasn't sure it would work but it really came together.
Fun to see the patron submissions.
This imaginary world keeps getting more and more awesome.
You don’t need to thank us
Your skill needs recognition, and my only wish is that more people will see this.
Love the character that is inherent in this piece
This whole Wild West with greeblies feels very “Firefly”. I love it.
So cool 👍 i had about 6 scrap boxes when I was doing model cars and trucks and helicopters. Dug into em every build to make them unique. Awesome models at the end.
That kept getting taller and taller! Yet another great build!
Excellent build Boylei!
Devil's Head is a fantastic hike!
Another brilliant WIW build - I want this series to run forever, so much more imaginative than the gaming and Star Wars related builds that everyone does. Congrats on 500K subscribers - well deserved!
dang, your patraens are making some incredible builds. shout out their efforts. wow
Yet another breathtaking and inspiring build, bravo! I'd love to see some sort of survival raft build, as I am a huge fan of your resin builds! Definitely my #1 channel for ideas when it comes to dioramas and wargame terrain.
We definitely need to see one of these giant birds!
This by far is my favorite building you have made. Really like.
Thank you, so much, for entertaining over half a million people.
Another lovely, relaxing video; fully of atmosphere and cool scratch-building.
AWESOME as always. you should grab an assortment of pipe filters, they make great greeblies!
I really really want to see you incorporate all your western sci fi builds into a huge world board/diorama. Love this world you’ve created and should be shown off together as it’s own world 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
wonderful build, there is a hut in Switzerland, cabane de bertol, that would fit right in in the imaginary west. Its is only reachable by ladder and there is only a small platform to walk on outside to go to the toilets ect. it is really cool and there are pictures of the old hut on the internet when is was still a wooden one. Looking forward to the next build!
Congrats on the 500k! and heres to when you reach 1 million!
My grandpa used to use dental tools for his hobbies and crafting. Thanks for reminding me of the nice memories of him tinkering.
i think a great addition to this amazing wild west series could be a house/series of houses that have a series of tunnels under them with some species of creature crawling through, this animal could explain missing people being dragged into the tunnels right underneath the feet of the townsfolk which could be a cool bit of lore...
I like the idea that instead of bird watching being his hobby it is his job to look for Giant eagles, Thunderbirds, or Pheonix.
The lookout's job is to warn ranchers and townsfolk in the areas below to protect their houses and livestock or look out for impending storms.
Just love all this stuff. Always enjoyable watching it all come together
Loved "the worst joke" Thank you for making these as always!
Since you mentioned it… think you need to add a giant eagle behind him! Incredible build as per usual!
Genuinely look forward to these videos every week. The quality and consistency is amazing. I'm just starting to make videos of my own and damn it's harder than I looks
absolutely love the imaginary west !!!!!
That telescope tho, damn Boylei that is badass!
Your videos are always so chill, I could watch them all day (I have, multiple times) and that tower looks like it’s had multiple owners, each of them building on the previous bit until it became a massive watchtower held together by glue, duct tape, and the occasional welded part.
OMG! I love the tiny telescope!
Looks GREAT...love the content and attentional to detail. The aesthetic of the buildings and locations if Fantastic!
Beautiful
Really cool, would’ve been nice to see another fictional monster scaling the mountain top, I kept imagining like a fuzzy mothman, yeti hybrid lurking below the outpost
Congratulations in your 500k u rlly deserved it can't wait to see u get 1mil
Amazing build! I think it’d be really cool to do an abandoned outpost that was vacated due to a monster. Wood paneling with claw marks and a bit of mystery of what happened to the outpost crew
You can use very thin fishing line or silk thread to simulate cables or metal tubes in parallel/grid (grid floor, antiRPG armor panels, cages/prison cells, etc).
I really love fire lookout towers, and Firewatch(the game).
This build is fantastic!
I love this series. I'm glad Boylei's not fed up with it yet cuz I'm not. That giant eagle sounds like it'll show up in a later video...
Очень интересный канал. Спасибо! Мне понравилось!
This is one of my favourite channels, I truly look forward to each upload. It would be really cool if you went back and remade that LOTR model for a third time to see how for you have come yet again
I love the idea of a futuristic monster filled wild west
the forts you built as a kid must've been legendary
I think a really fun idea for a monster themed diorama would be a (Boston? New York?) east coast businesswoman with her pet monster, as you’ve specified that there is a monster pet trade. I think it’d be a lot of fun!
I absolutely love the telescope and how perfectly the pipes work for it, but I think it might look cool if you made a lens from some UV resin
A future build that might be fun could be a barn or ranch with fantastic livestock. Or maybe a cattle drive mech.
