This week, I built my first 1:35 scale diorama set in the Wild Imaginary West. I wanted to go into a little more detail, not only on the character, but on a bit of the history of the Wild Imaginary West as well.
Inspiration for this build was Oliver Spaeth:

You have no idea how excited I get when there’s a new Imaginary Wild West video to watch. I love your little universe.
Same for me.
Wish he posted more than Sunday’s but I get it, life’s busy:(
Fax!
need a full story or several short storys telling all the ways to hunt and avoid monsters
Same
Boylei, you have revealed yet another talent in this diorama, your ability as an artist. I want to commend you for the way in which you are stewarding the gifts that you have. Keep it up!
Love how the background came out, and particularly the added depth; it's really cool to see a little slice like this that lets us feel like the Wild Imaginary West is just over the horizon!
I can’t decide what I love more the horse and rider or that background 💜
Shout out to grandma indeed!
Looks freaking awesome
This is outstanding. So much character in this piece. And I loved hearing the lore of the imaginary wild west. Such a unique world you have built.
What a good start to a Sunday 🙂
…or end to one.
I agree!
dude a Sunday for you
Please, please, please do more videos like these. I wanna hear more about the story of your world, and I love the balance between that and you explaining your process
I love the prosthetic on the horse. And the background really adds so much to the figure! Great work as always
As long as you don't think too hard about it, the prosthetic is really cool. Doesn't really make sense if you do, though
I pity the horse's spine.
@@ChrisPage68 No worries, the rider opted for the spine augmentation when he had to have that rear leg replaced.
Besides, the device doesn't weigh all that much seeing as its mostly magnetic coils enveloping special crystals. Thus causing a sub-audible noise that only monsters can hear which repels them without harming other wildlife. (...or so I have been told. 😀)
Red Dead Redemption 2 inspired me to get back into miniature painting and dioramas, and I like worlds that are a little more weird than west, so you can imagine how much I love your universe and all the bits of lore you tell us about. Everything about this piece is gorgeous.
I like the idea that in the wild imaginary west there's a photographer who will take your picture in front of backgrounds featuring scenic vistas and dangerous monsters. This guy and his horse are posing for their shot!
Your painting skills are epic. All props to your grandma for her teaching skills!
Bless your Grandma for giving you such a rewarding gift. This was such an amazing video, I'm blown away by the backdrop blending so perfectly with the figure. Once again, amazing work!!! Thank you!!!
Shout out to Grandma Hobby Time, wherever she may be
Curious to know how the native Americans dealt with the monsters. What tricks or tech did they use to avoid or deal with them? Love that you're expanding the lore.
they sat down and had a chat with them i reckon
I would love to see you make another one or two of these the individual characters bring it to life more I mean we have the towns and we have the monster hunters but to actually see the little people like that brings it to life more I love what you do with the horse and the background
If this guy had a museum, I WOULD VISIT!
That painting in the background looks amazing, your grandma taught you well!
Not only do you make amazing dioramas, but you're world building and story telling are incredibly entertaining!
Wild Imaginary West Videos are the best! Looking forward to your next building and another monster scene!
Dude! THAT is a model to be proud of! The haze in the backdrop is a fantastic trick that i will definitely use.
The saturation levels between the model and the background are such a good match, that when I saw the thumbnail I thought it was a painting 👍
So happy to be getting more lore! That background and rob leg are sick.
Amazing artwork! Love the Wild Imaginary West. Good job Grandma, she taught you well.
Man, every single time I watch your videos... I watch the entire process, but I'm still stupefied by the end result. You are some kinda magician, sir.
That backdrop painting is amazing
With every new project I’m blown away again and again
To put into words what i hope this world and setting become is beyond me. A book, a game, a show, a movie I want it all. PLEASE keep this coming!
The story of your universe so far is just so awesome! Let us know when Netflix or Amazon reach out for a series!
Excellent piece. And I love hoe this display is just small enough that he could live pretty much anywhere without requiring too much space. That backdrop came out amazing!
This is peak art, truly outstanding, this is my favorite piece in this amazing universe you are literally building. Would love to see some more of the natives and mexicans perhaps? But this is shaping up so well, props to you man
I always love the creativity and imagination you have.
This is how Steampunk Wild Wild West should be!
This is a really great build. I like the poor horse's cybernetic leg; it fits right in with this imaginary West. And the background is beautifully painted!
this is probably my favourite yet, the back drop is gorgeous
the painted background thing is a neat idea, I love it
Beautiful background painting! I always love it when you post. The story time and the builds are equally enjoyable. Your editing and shot choices make watching your creations come to life so fun. And the growing lore of the Wild Imaginary West is simple, fun and easy to follow. It's refreshing to see some mini worldbuilding that's not war or wizards.
I think this is the best base yet with the way the painted backdrop meets up with the realistic rocks.
I always love seeing new videos here. You are a huge inspiration to try my own dioramas.
Mate, WHY ARE YOU SO GOOD? ❤❤
I just finished binging through all your Imaginary Wild West videos, so I'm so excited to see one in real time!!
I watch your videos for the back story just as much as the modeling. Awesome as always!
Everything about this just sings to my sense of aesthetics. Love this so very much.
I would love to see more of these, using similar bases. This is fantastic.
Seriously you are one talented man. Builds amazing scenarios and also can paint amazing.
The wild imagination west series is phenomenal and I’m so glad to see different scales for the models
The mechanical leg was a master stroke, I'm digging this world you're creating.
Small dioramas, in my opinion, work so much better. Love this.
Man if only game devs interested with wild wild west genre, im pretty sure youre gonna be their art team
I love the lore and backstory! It makes the series so much richer.
Absolutely fantastic my friend. The techniques and story just get better and better!
Honestly your videos are what originally got me into hobby making and right now I love painting minis with my dad thank you for getting me into miniatures!
it's so refreshing to see someone tell their story and world through a series of diorama videos and more. keep up the great work
I love the growing lore of your little universe! 🐴🤠
What the hell that backdrop painting is such a flex, is there anything you can’t do mate. Wonderful work as always, the leg modifications to the horse were outstanding.
Wow,that is solo good! The paintjob on the rider, the horse and the base. The background picture you drew is amazing! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
This Wild Imaginary West feels a bit like that "Tales from the loop" show/artwork. Really cool stuff, amazing work!
For me, this diorama is one of your most creative piece so far.
Every time I see one of these videos, I just want to see a movie, or tv show or even tabletop game based on your creation. I preach to my friends on how cool the imaginary west is and am just waiting for the deep lore so I can tell tales of my cowboys and monster hunters traversing your world. Please don't ever stop making these!
I’m always amazed by how natural your rockwork looks. It feels plausible and naturalistic, never staged or contrived. It really sells the setting.
And I’ll admit, my heart warmed seeing the horse with that prosthetic limb. Shows they’re not just a tool to their rider, they’re a beloved companion. 💕
I wish we could have an open world game for your Imaginary Wild West world. I'd love to roam and explore every corner of it and fight and capture all the monsters too 😍😍😍
So excited to hear about the lore of the WIW!
The paint scheme almost has a disco Elysium style vibe, love it!
I thought the exact same thing! Especially the colors used to paint the face
love that you're fusing genres with the wild west, i think its really untapped
Love a good old Sunday chilling to Boylei Hobby Time, and funny enough I just bought some items off of Honour Guard 😻😻😺😺👍👍🤘🤘
I knew your model building skills were way above. But the painting of the backdrop bring this one even better. Love your work.
Amazing! Loved learning more about the back story of the wild imaginary west, can't wait for more!
Amazing work Boylei! The back drop and NMM leg both turned out fantastic - can't wait to hear more about this world
I'm a sucker for world building and it's always so fun hearing people enthusiastically sharing their world with others
Boylei, this is BEAUTIFUL! The backdrop is gorgeous
Love these larger scale vignettes. You need to do more of them!
You are so good at everything you do man! I love that the rocks go beyond the boarders of the base.
This is probably the most satisfying build to date. That backdrop alone was a treat to watch come to life! Awesome work, once again, my friend. God bless.
That painting talent!!!! Every addition to the WIW never fails to impress!
Amazing project. One of your best. So great to see your painting skills. You are an amazing artist and truly an inspiration.
This one!!! The painted background and the horses leg…. One of my favorites!!!
I think it would have been cool if the top antenna had a blinking beacon light at the top. That said I absolutely love this one. I am very impressed with your use of color to fake the lighting at different times of day. You're doing some amazing work in all areas of this creation. Your background painting is top notch and all of the creative additions and changes to the model are first rate.
This is a super cool base. It is fun seeing how many disciplines you have in your arsenal; 3D printing, scratch building, kit bashing, painting, etc. Amazing work as usual.
Have you seen the artist, Shaun Keenan that mixes wild west with dinosaurs? I think your world mixed with his dinos mixed in would be so cool.
The robotic horse leg is genius, looks amazing and is such a great detail!
Wow man!! The background has a 3D look to it great work!
I LOVE THIS ONE!!!! My boyfriend loves the prosthetic especially!!!
I didn’t even know that he could paint so good good now I want to see more lol
Absolutely incredible! That background is awesome, and that scratch build robocalls horse leg is amazing!
That background is absolutely amazing. Fantastic job bro ❤
Great work on this small but great diorama. Love to hear about the story of your wild west. And you had a great grandmother that taught you how to paint. Great work a always.
That's just AMAZING. INCREDIBLE !! I can't imagine if a series or a game in this univers would looks like
"And as always when somebody leads the way the people are sure to follow.." you're a great inspiration and creator and feel you've helped me push myself further in my model making endeavors
That mechanical leg on the horse was amazing! And I loved the background painting. Absolutely beautiful. I'm so glad I found your channel, because you Wild Imaginary West is just so inspiring and exciting.
The backround... the horse... the composition... it's all awesome 💜
Typically I love your structure builds but this has shot straight to the top as my favorite to date! Love this series, keep up the amazing work.
Beautiful backdrop painting, simple yet effective piece of storytelling.
The background came out amazing, great job as always!
Simple build, but this video is one of my favorites. The storytelling element is incredible and i hope you keep incorporating it in future videos!
i love the colours on this, it's really cool.
Also loved hearing more Imaginary Wild West lore, im really excited to learn more about it!!
The Hand Painted Backdrop is an Impression istic 😖 WORK OF ART 🎨 🤯👍😍 TOTALY Agree about the Hat - well done , Excellent addition to the Wild West World
This is beautiful! I would love to see you do more like this. Also, some larger mechs in this scale would be fantastic!
Love it! Can’t wait for more weird west!
I hope this comment reaches you. I just want you to know how much peace and comfort your videos bring me. Im naturally very high strung and have issues with anxiety. Your videos calm me down to the point of comfort and I cant express enough how awesome that is. Thank you for taking the time to make such great content!
Wow! Big shout out to your grandma, because that paint job is amazing! I love that you clean up your work space, too. Great video and thank you for giving us another wild imaginary west update.
I loved the lore breakdown in this video!
I absolutely love the artificial leg for the horse. That was a brilliant idea.
The lore you're building for this universe is just as good as the builds, and the builds make me want to run to my hobby desk week after week!
Truly beautiful diorama
I love this setting and its inspired me to make a world of my own
I wish I could be half as good as you
Dude. You're blessed with some amazing talent. I also appreciate how you depict the West. Not just the western genre, but the American West. It's home.
