    This week, I made my second cross section diorama of a hot spring in Yellowstone. The hot pool I recreated this time is Emerald Spring in the Norris Basin. The diorama is set in my Wild Imaginary West and houses a mysterious creature that travels from pool to pool searching for bones and waiting to drag unsuspecting prey into the hot water.

      ​@gfries4906 they also don't *leave* the water, nor do they live in acidic and near boiling temperatures. Yes, whales and dolphins breathe air at the surface, but they're ocean borne and restricted creatures. This thing is actively choosing harsh environments to live in when it *could* choose to live elsewhere.

      Me too! And it can be done - I recently painted some of the horses from the IMEX Sioux Indians set, a Buckskin and an Appaloosa. They came out great and added a really cool touch to the scene. There are some good horse coat color charts online.

    When you said no animal can survive in the hot springs, I immediately thought of flamingos. Can’t find anything on them interacting with Yellowstone specifically, but they can drink boiling water and chill in water so acidic and salty it would melt your skin. Terrifying!

    I’ve read about 12 books now about early American mountain men and their adventures, hunting and trapping through the Rocky Mountains. All of there tails about first stumbling along Yellowstone and the natural wonders there are amazing. They couldn’t believe what they were seeing. And no one back east believed them, when they described the geysers.

    Well done, Boylei! Even if you omitted the monster, this hot springs diorama would be a winner! That said, the monster is the only sign that this diorama is part of your Wild Imaginary West, and not a depiction of an actual, historical scene. (Maybe if your miners had a Forestall on one of their mules . . . ?)
    Regardless, this deep-pour resin scene is incredible, and I'm looking forward to more of your Sunday Morning videos! Thanks for sharing your imagination and techniques with us!

    I’m not sure if you’ve been to/heard of the Superstition Mountains in AZ. Legend has it that there’s buried “lost Dutchman’s” gold somewhere in the mountains. There’s also a natural phenomenon where the sun casts a shadow on the rocks that looks like a giant cougar. A diorama with treasure hunters coming face to face with what is in fact an actual giant cougar seems like a perfect addition to the W.I.W!!
