The fish add so much life to the scene and the light ripple paint job looks bomb! Deeply unsettled by the fleshy pink of the crinoids, though. Feathers as the arms was a great touch.
As a Crinoid enthusiast, you had me on the edge of my seat right until the very end. I should never have doubted you would add in the rest of the tentacles! The diorama looks amazing!
I can’t even wrap my head around how cool this is. It looks like a painting, the shading and everything, but it’s 3D?! Honestly gorgeous, you are insanely talented.
I always found sea life more interesting than land life, and to sea a see diorama from one of my favorite model makers is a great christmas gift. Happy holidays!
No idea what possessed you to make a diorama inside the gutted carcass of an iphone but I'm so here for it. This turned out amazing especially with the really limited depth.
AMAZING WORK AS USUAL!!!!!! I love your art I’ve been watching your channel for years and my little sister loves it too!!! Somtimes when she’s feeling down or bored she says to me “can watch the guy who makes dinosaurs with clay!” 😂 the other day when we were watching your videos she said you should make a mosasauras diorama lol!!! Anyway keep up the good work man me and my lil sister love to see it!!!!!!
this channel is so calming and engaging i always binge a lot of your videos when i'm having a mental health crisis (currently) and it helps so much. and i've learned a lot about prehistoric animals! and modeling techniques!
I’ve been watching your channel for a few years and I took notice of the the love and care you put into every piece and you are able to combine science and art perfectly which is just out right amazing :)
Hmm this reminds me of the Ordovician period, but has a Jurassic ammonite (I think), Devonian trilobite, and potentially Carboniferous crinoids. either way I like it ^^
This turned out amazing! It feels like your creativity knows no bounds! I think the resin still looks great, even if it wasn't the color you were going for. It adds even more of a true ocean feel since there's typically a blue color tone to things underwater in real life.
Fantastic as always, just a little observation, Trilobites are amongst the coolest extinct arthropods, but they never lived with ammonites. the last of them disappeared since 252 millions of years at the Permian-triassic extinction. Ammonites are typical of mesozoic. Cheers
More invertebrates! My favourite! I found your channel through your massive caterpillar, and while I love dinos, I've been waiting for more inverts. Looks awesome!
this is so cool!! All of the little details are amazing and I love the painting technique you used! I’ve been wanting to work with clay for awhile and this has greatly inspired me
I think you may have the best videos on TH-cam. I love how creative and beautiful your projects are, and your videos are so nicely edited and narrated, they're just a joy and inspiration to watch!
Ugh your channel is so cool! ~_~ I love how much attention you dedicate to making the creatures as accurate as possible! I learn something new with every video ^_^
what if you turned this into a series where you made progressively newer phones with dioramas of progressively more recent natural history? like the iphone 4 could be the triassic (assuming this is the permian) then the iphone 5 could be the jurrasic, etc. You could even go backwards and do the carboniferous, devonian ordovician, etc. I think this would be cool (but it might be expensive to get the latest phone models). Either way I loved this video and I hope you had a good year and will have a good 2024 :).
Fantastic work, I'm really impressed with the detail. Cephalopods are so bizarre, but looking at the ammonite I can start to imagine how they evolved from mollusk ancestors.
Wow, what an incredible diorama! I’ve been drawn to your videos a lot lately; and I even asked and received some sculpey clay as a gift for Christmas to make my own sculptures! You’re a paleoart icon, and a great inspiration, at least for me!
Spectacular diorama!!! I'm just wondering why you chose to display a Jurassic Persphinctid together with a trilobite. Perhaps a paleozoic Ammonoid would have been more fitting
I never knew learning could be so fun!!! I learned so much yet enjoyed every second of this video as your voice is very calming and relaxing. Can't wait to watch more of your videos. Please keep them coming!!!!
Your phone case looks amazing I really love all the creatures and the time of work you put in to each piece and color, I had a few small fossils myself and my son has them now !!!, as I gave them to him,plus a trilobite and some small ammonites, and even has a collection of preserved bugs that he bought some time ago, nature sure is beautiful, ❤
Yo merry Christmas Kayakasaurus! This vid was altogether engaging, inspiring and anxiety-inducing! Working that tiny with subjects I'm not well-versed in would stress me out! But you pulled it off effortlessly (like always). Thanks for closing my holiday out with this fun build!
pretty awesome christmas gift, loved it! my only unsolicited critique (because for no good reason, it’s bothering me) is the ammonite ejecting bubbles, since it doesn’t breathe air it should just be a jet of water, a few bubbles may be warranted but definitely not so many as if the bubbles were the thing propelling it… i just really had to get that off my chest 💀 that being said, i absolutely loved the video dude, can never pass up on your content. i would love to see more of these “little” (though i bet still time consuming and tedious) projects, shadow-box or diorama-style however you want to call it.
Hey thanks! Yeah I thought about that 😄 I still liked the idea of visually showing movement, even though it would just be water in water. I would like to do more small projects like this as well!
“I’ve. Been. ROBBED.” Makes me laugh every time. I love the wholesome, sometimes surrealistic humor you bring to your videos and art.
An upload from Kayakasaurus near the end of Christmas Day? BEST. GIFT. EVER!!!!! Happy Holidays everyone!
TRUE
Fax
Merry Christmas!!
The fish KILLED IT omg I got so drawn in by them and the creatures are sooo detailed and I looooove the bubbles
My phone is shaking right now, it knows what I'm thinking.
Lol
my phone isn't charging it wants to be turned into one
Same
hey pal!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Im big Fan
The fish add so much life to the scene and the light ripple paint job looks bomb! Deeply unsettled by the fleshy pink of the crinoids, though. Feathers as the arms was a great touch.
Thanks, the fish turned out to be my favorite part too, and they were the easiest part to make lol
It’s not a real fish u know
As a Crinoid enthusiast, you had me on the edge of my seat right until the very end. I should never have doubted you would add in the rest of the tentacles! The diorama looks amazing!
You really took your creativity to another degree with this one 🤯
That crinoid in 4:32 is actually called dinomischus if anyone is wondering, also I like the art, I like Cambrian period too, make more on it! 😊
I can’t even wrap my head around how cool this is. It looks like a painting, the shading and everything, but it’s 3D?! Honestly gorgeous, you are insanely talented.
I always found sea life more interesting than land life, and to sea a see diorama from one of my favorite model makers is a great christmas gift. Happy holidays!
Same!
And to see a *see* diorama XD
I sea what chu doing here
Sameeeee
Imagine walking up to some and saying “hey wanna seeing something cool” and you pull out this that would make that person’s day
It would 100% make my day, and I would also be incredibly envious of their phone 😂
No idea what possessed you to make a diorama inside the gutted carcass of an iphone but I'm so here for it. This turned out amazing especially with the really limited depth.
I’m so happy you talked about cephalopods!! They’re awesome. (And modeling the colors after the flamboyant cuttlefish was a great choice)
Always a good day when Kayakasaurus uploads
AMAZING WORK AS USUAL!!!!!! I love your art I’ve been watching your channel for years and my little sister loves it too!!!

Anyway keep up the good work man me and my lil sister love to see it!!!!!!
This is such a wholesome sweet comment. It actually cheered me up. I wasn’t having like, a bad day, but I’m definitely smiling now
this channel is so calming and engaging i always binge a lot of your videos when i'm having a mental health crisis (currently) and it helps so much. and i've learned a lot about prehistoric animals! and modeling techniques!
Just discovered your channel in my recommendations this morning and now I’m binging everything. Love your creations ❤
I’ve been watching your channel for a few years and I took notice of the the love and care you put into every piece and you are able to combine science and art perfectly which is just out right amazing :)
And happy new year
So cool. I love ammonites, and I like the bluer resin because it makes the ammonite look further away in the resin. Happy holidays!
Agreed, it really adds depth!
All the little tricks, techniques, hats off. Not only entertaining, beautiful to see, but educational as well.
Hmm this reminds me of the Ordovician period, but has a Jurassic ammonite (I think), Devonian trilobite, and potentially Carboniferous crinoids. either way I like it ^^
If you’ve seen one Crinoid you’ve seen them all 😅
If Jurassic Park can do it, Kayak can do it 😤😂
Your creativity is inexhaustible 😮
So is mine! 😎
This turned out amazing! It feels like your creativity knows no bounds! I think the resin still looks great, even if it wasn't the color you were going for. It adds even more of a true ocean feel since there's typically a blue color tone to things underwater in real life.
Watching all the individual elements come together to form one cohesive piece is so satisfying! Great job on this one!
Fantastic as always, just a little observation, Trilobites are amongst the coolest extinct arthropods, but they never lived with ammonites. the last of them disappeared since 252 millions of years at the Permian-triassic extinction. Ammonites are typical of mesozoic. Cheers
Yay!!! New video! My bf and I are chilling watching you now 🥰
That paintjob is insanely well done!
More invertebrates! My favourite! I found your channel through your massive caterpillar, and while I love dinos, I've been waiting for more inverts. Looks awesome!
That's really cool. I love the attention to detail. When you added those tiny beads and the way you clustered them, that was awesome.
this is so cool!! All of the little details are amazing and I love the painting technique you used! I’ve been wanting to work with clay for awhile and this has greatly inspired me
I think you may have the best videos on TH-cam. I love how creative and beautiful your projects are, and your videos are so nicely edited and narrated, they're just a joy and inspiration to watch!
Your eye for detail and video style is exactly why i joined your patreon keep up the amazing work!
this man deserves so much more hype
What hype?
Man your skills amaze me every time!
An amazing use for an old forgotten device shell. Freakin beautiful!
That was epic! I love all the little details, and your editing is super funny and entertaining! 🐚🦑🪸
Awesome work! Now this has me wanting to see a marine reptiles diorama.
Ugh your channel is so cool! ~_~ I love how much attention you dedicate to making the creatures as accurate as possible! I learn something new with every video ^_^
really great as always 🥰hard to pick a favourite creature, but the lil trilobite is so lovely
Thank you!
Dis is the best Christmas gift this year :D
Also on the same day I planned on making a trilobite that worked like a robo fish-
Cool
Great editing and sound effects 👌👏 reminds me of Captian Disillusion

Either way I loved this video and I hope you had a good year and will have a good 2024 :).
I absolutely love your art 💖💖💖
This video had me so locked in it was awesome, more prehistoric sea-life pls!!
Ok this is way too cool! I love it!
Honeyyyyy kayakasaurus uploaded… get in HERE! ❤
Thanks to Studson, i have found out your channel and i love it!
Fantastic work, I'm really impressed with the detail. Cephalopods are so bizarre, but looking at the ammonite I can start to imagine how they evolved from mollusk ancestors.
Wow, what an incredible diorama! I’ve been drawn to your videos a lot lately; and I even asked and received some sculpey clay as a gift for Christmas to make my own sculptures! You’re a paleoart icon, and a great inspiration, at least for me!
Yet another work of art! Bravo :)
You know, a little bit of strategically placed glow-in-the-dark paint would have been a nice touch too.
This is flipping amazing!
You have done it again…. An absolute masterpiece!!!! Love your work ❤😊❤
Spectacular diorama!!!
I'm just wondering why you chose to display a Jurassic Persphinctid together with a trilobite. Perhaps a paleozoic Ammonoid would have been more fitting
The detail is so impressive!
Omg. Didn't expect someone would jerry rig everything a phone even more than JRE does. 😂
That was a serious teardown!
I never knew learning could be so fun!!! I learned so much yet enjoyed every second of this video as your voice is very calming and relaxing. Can't wait to watch more of your videos. Please keep them coming!!!!
Yayyyyy best Christmas present ever!
Beautiful ❤
Glad I stayed up. this video was a great christmas present!
This is such a cool idea and such perfect execution!
Awesome diorama and your production quality is on point!
I dont understand how you have under 1/2 million subscribers
As a big fan of prehistoric marine invertebrates I can’t stop looking at this… it’s so beautiful. You did a fantastic job, keep up the amazing work.
I love the fire filter you always put on when you put stuff in the oven
That turned out gorgeous! Don't kid yourself 😁
Having worked with invertebrates, this is very cute. Merry Christmas.
This was perfect! It was so fun to watch too! I still can't believe how good you are with clay, I could never😂❤
This is such a cool idea! I have some old phone cases I'd love to try this with 😁
Здесь прекрасно всё!
Merry Christmas!!! Yutyrannus stares through window
In the end this looks like an artefact from the Orwell's story... Marvellous 😄😍
Your phone case looks amazing I really love all the creatures and the time of work you put in to each piece and color, I had a few small fossils myself and my son has them now !!!, as I gave them to him,plus a trilobite and some small ammonites, and even has a collection of preserved bugs that he bought some time ago, nature sure is beautiful, ❤
I love the ✨little rock buddy✨ ! 😂🥺
it looks like a real image good job
Beautiful work!

A tip for sculpting while carving things out of wet clay put cling film over it so there’s no debris while you carve
Just stop being this talented! Please! 😫😂
You never disappoint in doing a good job, Great skills man!
Always astounded by your artistry. Both in the craft and the video making. Well done!!!
It turned out great.
Your art is so inspiring!
What a pleasant surprise merry christmas
that is sooo pretty!
So pretty!!
To add more detail you could add sea moss and algae on the trilobite and ammonite shells
Bruh are you kidding me this is so good
Como siempre sorprendiendo 😎 epico 10/10 tu video
Wonderful video!
いつ見てもすごいです‼︎
That is so beautiful! Thank you for sharing this. Happy holidays.
Wow this was a majestic artwork !! You will need to do more majestic and awesome arts
Wow. So amazing. I love it ❤❤❤❤
Well done!
The quality and attention to detail is just insane. At the beginning of the video I thought I was looking at a printed holographic image.
Amazing
This guy is so talented I wish I had his skill
Increíble, Dios te bendiga.❤❤❤❤❤
Just incredible
Now this is art
pretty awesome christmas gift, loved it!
my only unsolicited critique (because for no good reason, it’s bothering me) is the ammonite ejecting bubbles, since it doesn’t breathe air it should just be a jet of water, a few bubbles may be warranted but definitely not so many as if the bubbles were the thing propelling it…
