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.

what makes it even more terrifying is that this thing comes up for air, so it does need to breath
It *chooses* to live in these pools.
there are mammals that live in the water and have to come up for air
@@gfries4906 none of them have hands
@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.
I mean it could be a walrus type creature that can spend extensive periods out of water but is still built to survive in water, who knows if this thing has legs maybe it just flops from pool to pool lol
@@gfries4906 Cetaceans (whales, dolphins, and porpoises), sirenians (manatees and dugongs), and pinnipeds (seals, sea lions and walruses) do _not_ have FRIGGIN' HANDS!
I would love to see some more variety in coat colours for the horses in future builds! They’re almost always bay and I feel it would be fun to have a pop of something else eventually
I agree!
I agree. I love the builds a lot but wish he would use more brighter colours for the animals and people figures, sometimes. I feel that he uses too much of the Autumn colours like browns, yellows and ochres, etc.
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.
How about you guys do some horses and send them ,that way you guys can see them in future builds.
Those colours are the hardest for monsters to spot, so people try to only have bay horses and drab colours.
Maybe. I just made that up. Lol
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!
Exactly! Flamingos for most people are just silly pink stilt birds but they are actually goddamn flying fallout ghouls.
Well they are 400f though
I recently found your channel after stumbling across North of the Border, and I've been glued to it ever since. As a hobby painter of middling skill, your tricks and techniques have been incredibly helpful. Thanks for what you do!
The Wild Imaginary West is awesome, and tremendously encouraging as I work on a setting of my own!
That is just him in a nutshell
yo i love adam, here fucking hilarious
Adam the goat
This is basically the same way that I found this channel! Only for me it was much less recently.
Your Wild Imaginary West series has become one of my favorite modeling series to watch, each time I see one I stop what I'm doing to watch
You should do a model of two gangs fighting eachother, each with their own tamed hulking beast!
That’s a really good idea
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.
From beneath it devours 😊
Sounds like the name of a Meshuggah song
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers….
As someone who has been watching your videos for a long time now, it is really astonishing to watch your progress during the years. This diorama is stunning and I’m so proud of you for finding your groove with the resin. Great job!
gosh YES i need this series back ... wild west creature stuff and mythology >>>>>>>>>>
I'm so glad the wild imaginary West is back
Ha, gotta love it when those happy little mistakes end up good for the final result. Love the colours, too!
Would love to see you do another video about airbrushing your minis. Hints, tips, techniques about how you go about getting them so realistic.
The hot spring (and sneaky creature) looks AMAZING 🤩
You’ve done a phenomenal job recreating the hot spring!
I just now got the notification of this video because I have been in Yellowstone all day, neat timing
Do you think you could make a ww1 diorama? I have been making one for school and would love to see how you would’ve gone about it
I'd love to see one with trenches and stuff
if you dont already watch him, Night Shift makes exclusively world war dioramas in very similar styles
I’d particularly love to see some Appaloosa or black tones, especially since black horses are so hard to paint on small scale while retaining depth and detail.
I'm a huge fan of Yellowstone and love visiting these boiling hot and extremely acidic waters of the park's hot springs when we're able to make the trip. I often remember that first video you did and was happy to see you revisit another one. Love the videos and your work!
I love the creativity and how amazing your builds are.
It would be great to see a behind the scenes video and do a bench walkthrough and show how you record your videos!!
I like how you made it light enough to be able to see the creature at the bottom. That is really great.
Love The Imaginary Wild West. 👍👍👍
How time passes, I remember the last Yellowstone model, I didn't realize it was YEARS! ago lol, very good job boyli
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!
158th Like.
I'm so glad you practice safety while you create your masterpieces... I'm always so worried for those who don't.
I think another W.I.W diorama I would love of you did is a train wrecked by a monster that died on the tracks/or got crushed by the train
Also spraying fine IPA onto resin works to pop bubbles if you don't want to risk melting edge details 😉
im going to start soon with making dioramas, u and north of the boarder are the holy reson for that
Best of luck for this new adventure !
@@3mix4m67 thanks mate kompressor just came :)
dont forget the wormie dealies and eyes and teeth!
@@roninparker true XD
These videos tickle my brain
I love your narration almost as much as your artwork. 😊
Subtle as always. Especially with the horror elements.
This is absolute ART.
That is so freaking cool! Simple in design, complex in execution but stunning in the finished form. Great back story also.
If i was an Hollywood producer i would buy the rights for your " Imaginary West" and make a series. Love all the details
Love going back to the Wild Imaginary West! Love the lore and the awesome finished project!
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!!
Yo, Boylei! Apparently local folklore holds that dragons live in Yellowstone. Maybe you could make a Yellowstone dragon diorama, or even have the mystery creature be one of these dragons if you wish
what better place for a dragon to incubate it's eggs than in a hot pool? The dragon should not look like a european or chinese dragon, but more of a cross between a grizzly bear, porcupine and eagle.
I love when the projects have stories behind them!
I love how much more confident you've gotten in your resin pours. Good stuff.
yaaayyy WIW is back!
I am obsessed with this series! You should try making one with a thunder bird
Looks beautiful man! I’m glad you used veneer. I was like «nooo» when the xps showed through.
Beautiful resin pour Boylei! Great jeaorb.
he called it good!!!!!!
"welcome back to boylei hobby time"
It’s always exactly when I need new Boylei Hobby Time content, when there’s new Boylei Hobby Time content. 😌 thank you! 🤘🏽🏴☠️
This guy is really reaaly good at what he does
Always good to see wild imaginary west post!
A return of the Hot-Springs Monster! I always liked that video, I'm so happy to see a sequel
What a cool hobby.
Ooh, a horrifying concept. I love it! Beautiful work, as always
I love that this channel has blown up in such a small amount of time (comparatively) and is getting so much love. Even more, I appreciate the time you put into it all, doing something I definitely can not do but tune in immediately to see.
The resin pour tip was me 😊
Outstanding as usual! Your "wild Imaginary West" concept is just brilliant!
emerald spring looks an awful lot like sapphire spring, but maybe that's just me.
btw, I love the x-men reference!
Exactly. That's what makes this monster so scary. lol. I love that!
We NEED more lore on the Hot Spring Monster!!
I am in awe with your craftsmanship and the precision and attention you pay to detail. Also, can we appreciate for a moment how clean and tidy your work area is? I love a tidy workspace during the process. 🤩
Твои видео никогда не перестанут меня вдохновлять, Спасибо!
Absolutely gorgeous
They should make this series into a movie
Would have been nice to see both amazing hot springs together
Your one of my favorite CZcamsrs! Thank you for being so awesome!
I can't wait to see the monster in a full video of its own
Monsters are always scariest when they remain unknown.
The best horror movies keep the monster off camera because we can imagine worse things than anything we see.
I also took a road trip that had us visiting Yellowstone last year, and you've really done an amazing job. I haven't seen either of the ones you've created so far in person, but based on the hot springs I saw I can say they are incredibly well done and really look like a proper hot spring!
Another great build.
some of the best content on youtube!
Absolutely beautiful build!
Wow! I mean wow! That pour is immaculate! 😍 Well done!
Hello friend, this is the first time I have written to congratulate you on your Diorama Projects. I rarely write to the creators of the channel because many times there are few who read the comments and respond, but I always leave you a Like. Thanks to you, I was inspired to start making dioramas because I saw one you did about three years ago, from STARWARS titled: ''Tank Ambush Aftermath Diorama''. And after seeing that work I started to create my own. Well, what I wanted to ask you is a favor, I have reviewed all your videos and I see that you have not made one of Halo when you can and if you want, make one of Master Chief vs The Covenant, I know that you will be excellent. You can be inspired by any combat of the new HALO series. Well thank you very much for everything and keep on giving us the best as always.
Something that might be fun to do, in your next diorama with a more forest/nature theme it'd be cool to see some "forest critters" with your Wild Imaginary West twist. Animals that aren't too dangerous and probably would be more common the further East.
I love this.
AMAZING! 👍👍👍
now that's a good pour
Love this wild west theme. Great work on the Emerald pool, amazing colours.
3:13 I found it quite funny that you mentioned we were thinking “no animal can survive in the hot spring pool” like you did because at that moment I was in fact thinking “man that monster has to be so tough and wicked to live in a place like that” pretty much just before you made a comment about it lol
Love it Caleb! You are so good at cramming a story in to the Diorama with just a few details... really lovely man!
Stunning.
That resin pour was top notch!
We need a future reveal of the rest of this monster.😮
Ima get into this craft in some yrs seems relaxing and fun
Monster: I don't need to ably to physics
I think it might have been me that suggested adding the pigment to half of the resin in a large batch to keep the colors consistent. I know I've suggested to people in the past. If it wasn't me, I'll still take credit. ;)
That, by the way, is an amazing resin pour! Very hard to do something that large with no bubbles, boiling (yes, folks, this stuff boils when poured too thick), or noticeable pour lines.
The Wild Imaginary West is my favorite! I would love to see monsters as companions or work animals. As we know humans will pack bond with anything and there will always be 'that guy (or gal)' who's willing to try. I'm already excited for you next video.
So satisfying
Another piece of art!
Great rendering of a hot spring. Spectacular.👍
i think that if you pour a new layer of resin on top of an old one, while the old one is not completely solid, but has a very viscous, almost hard consistency, you can avoid layer lines. the old layer should be solid enough that you leave a visible hollow when you press it in, but the rest remains stable, similar to clay.
Fabulous
Great colors for the hot spring pool!
For deep pours like that, it would be really cool to see you experiment with putting the diorama in a freezer to prevent resin overheating, like BM Sculptutes do :)
Cool
The other hot spring video was the first one of yours that I saw. It called for an immediate subscribe. Happy to see more!
I love ur creations and really love the imagery west keep up the amazing work🔥
Cool. Reminds me of the creature from the black lagoon. 👍
I would love you to make more Wild Imaginary West Diorama's by using actual monsters from various Native American mythologies. For instance a cattle drive getting attacked by a Horned Serpent when fording a river
Wonderful as always. Cowboy themed horror is such a cool genre
It would be cool to see an Oregon trail themed diorama, maybe with a zombie twist due to the infamous tale of the cannibalism that took place in snowy mountains.
All the people who have commented (11:04PM Sydney Australia time) have not even finished the video yet. (Nor have i but that’s not the point)
realistically almost everyone hasn't
(in roughly 15 seconds they will)
I just finished
Loved it!
another hot spring cutaway yessss! yes! your first hotspring video was the first one i ever saw of yours. i was really pulled in by the soft voiceover and the respect you have for nature. i havent been to yellowstone in a few years but i think you capture its colors and its gestures so well.
Awesome as always!😊
Excellent love it
Here's the thing: as a multi-console gamer, yes, there are diminishing returns to simply making consoles more powerful, and selling your games on their graphical capabilities and technical features.
However, more powerful consoles are enabling new experiences that simply aren't possible on previous generations or earlier hardware. Yes, development costs go up with more graphically complex games. It's still also possible to develop fun games of lower graphical complexity for regardless of hardware specs, as demonstrated by indie studios.
In all likelihood, the major selling point of the Switch successor over the original will be graphical performance, and this is fine.
You need both: focus on fun, and the wow factor of new experiences.
