Making the Old Legend of the West

[@luckyno.9371]

Need a "Leo's guide to the imaginary West" now, I wanna hear all his tips and tricks for survival

[@dragonQueen0]

I would buy it

[@caitchri2426]

If you like the idea of an old man hunting a bear… Then you might like the very long and detailed story of the old retired bear hunter, who hunted down a man eating bear in Japan.

[@caitchri2426]

Look up the The Sankebetsu Brown Bear Incident by Bob Gymlan. He also has a similar soothing voice as he narrates.

[@oddmind55]

thats what the tabletop game of this universe should be called and i would buy it fund it do wat ever is needed to make it happen

[@BackTheBlue.]

There’s the next video

[@pandathebest4389]

Leo could beat the bison minotaur in bare knuckle boxing. I have no evidence of this but I know it's true

[@garrettruggiero7071]

I heard he once scared off a golden bear just by giving it a real mean look, the bear turned tail and ran like the wind

[@TheBlakus420]

I once heard the IRS fears receiving letters from Leo

[@general.catallion_8054]

i mean, why would his cousin's daughter lie? only true tales could come from such a amazed child.

[@och70]

Leo told me that the sun asks him what time he wants it to rise in the morning. I didn't doubt it for a moment.

[@U014B]

I have evidence: he told me himself.

[@originalnamehere7308]

Occasionally releasing entries of his journal either at the end of videos or on socials would be so cool. As always, love the build.

[@TheBlakus420]

I totally agree! With both of these comments! 😀

[@feynthefallen]

I've already started writing the journal. Let's see what comes from it.

[@artemisexplorer6792]

If you want you can always visit the wild imaginary west wiki

[@feynthefallen]

@@artemisexplorer6792 such a thing does exist?! Why was I not informed?

[@earlware4322]

​@@artemisexplorer6792How is it that I am only NOW finding out that such a thing exists?!? I must go study this in detail...🤓

[@wallabaatar]

I’ve seen every single WIW video you’ve done, and they just keep getting better and better. The craft, history/lore, video and editing combined with your narration, honesty and humor…it’s genius. Thanks Boylei!

[@kyrus808]

"Maybe someday someone will find [Leo's Journal] and publish it" *cough* *cough*. Looking forward to it!

[@caitchri2426]

If you like the idea of an old retired, bear, hunter, looking for a man eating bear you might enjoy the story of The Sankebetsu Brown Bear Incident. A real historical review of an actual event by Bob Gymlan.

[@nelly5954]

It's nuts how that account plays out like an actual work of fiction.

[@lucycannon6732]

Years are heavy...his posture is perfect :)

[@ieuan211]

I would love to see the wild imaginary west get turned into a game, where you start from the bottom and work your way up to be a legend of the west

[@Raptorknight17]

An RDR2 style video game where you survive and hunt, prospect, etc. would be incredible

[@piotrwisniewski70]

​@@Raptorknight17 Oh yeah, and here hunting elements would actually make sense (they kinda felt pointless in rdr2 in my opinion) I Wild Imaginary West game™ we would hunt for trophies and skins which allow us to level up our prestige level, making people stop treating us like a rat catcher, and would allow us to buy better guns for hunting bigger beasts

[@aceade]

The "Cool Cowboy Pocket Handbook" sounds like something that would be aimed at any newcomer trying to get started in the WIW. Now available in the City Slicker Bundle from all reputable retailers! Old Leo here probably lumps it in with the lesser dime novels.

[@Xylophytae]

Leo don't need to try and be cool, he just is. It comes to him like a fish to swimming

[@toddguenther1568]

Leo rocks! Sometimes we learn as we go, like armature vs. a pricey mannequin. Most wouldn't admit, edit, or skip that insight, however you're honest transparency when showing your work is another benefit that keeps us tuning in, watching intently, re-watching, entertained, and telling others about your channel. Keep up the good work!

[@dgarc012]

A nice breakfast and some Boylei Hobby. Another great Sunday.

[@oskarwilander3890]

I love this one! A wild imaginary west cabin interior in this scale would be great

[@Nathanm7977]

Love the simplicity of it and love how you keep adding so much to the back story

[@lionessoftor4139]

I absolutely love Leo's Lore. If I lived in the Wild Imaginary West that's what I would do. Great Work! I would love to see what the Pony Express could be. Maybe they could ride some cool monsters, the Terror Birds or something new. Or you could use the Black 4.0 to make some shadow creature or a hide behind.

[@jacobhesse981]

I love the Wild Imaginary West series and don't want to see them end any time soon but you should totally do Leo riding off into the sunset as your final video of the series.

[@silverseth7]

Methinks There will never truly be a final video, just a different story to be told.

[@qvm6627]

Like clock work every Sunday I treat myself to a before bed, Boylei Bobby time video. You are honestly my favorite KZbin to date...can't wait to see the next video. Lots of love

[@JagoHazzard]

I love how characterful this is. I feel like you could tell who this figure is and what's going on even without the explanation. Not that I didn't enjoy the explanation.

[@goodvibes8036]

YES! my day is saved!

[@animatorxstudios100]

super cool as always, I hope we get a diorama of Leo facing of against this golden bear. you also should make a 1 to 1 scale recreation of Leo's journal, that would be so cool. maybe have him also fight a giant sand flee on beach with palm trees.

[@paultanker5606]

G'Day to you again Squire, so Good seeing an Old Geezer{ Looking a lot like me with the Beard } appear before my Eyes, you get better with every Build, well done you!

[@Lee-Dixon1987]

The little touches like the stagnant water in the print and just the various layering of textures/colors just make these kinds of builds! Love this piece. God bless.

[@edanwallgejw]

Your lore and crafting skills are amazing!:) Thank you Boylei.

[@somniferousshark9786]

WOW having Leo be a recurring character was a fantastic detail which blew me away, I love that a lot of the WIW has been showing his adventures in the West. Everything feels so much more connected.

[@SJ-0044]

level of detail and skill in all your projects never stop amazing me.

[@johnphilippatos]

Fantastic job. The riffle is the crown jewel of this video.

[@smiley800]

Very cool. Thanks for keeping us informed about Leo's tales.

[@theuneducatedbiologist9637]

You’ve really inspired me to get into sculpting and writing again. Thank you so very much for sharing your creations! Have a blessed one

[@beanhavok2287]

Making it look easy as usual!! Nice work!

[@Canadian_Hobo]

You should make a Leo playlist. Of all his adventures you've chronicled in (his) chronological order

[@AnesidoraAston]

It's nice to see you getting more comfortable with resin.

[@ReviewerKid90]

Seriously Boylei, you have the makings of a great Dungeons and Dragons inspired concept here with the Wild Imaginary West and I am all for that.

[@Krommer1000]

So cool watching you decide what you're making as you're making it. So creative.

[@tunesaquarium7276]

wow your awesome you inspire me so much doing dioramas thank you for your videos and your knowledge your sharing 🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@leonardneubeck1003]

The 1/12 scale dios are great!!!

[@BB_Chaptsick]

“Giardia green water.” Awesome. Like Leo’s story. Hope we’ll see more projects with the ol’ boy. Always enjoy your Sunday posts. See you next week.

[@wingnutbert9685]

Laughed at that too. That really needs to be a new official colour for the paint company.

[@voxsdungeon]

You really get the joy of the western spirit. I appreciate it. Thankyou.

[@Blayzn18]

I love the Wild Imaginary Wild West (tm)! I put the video on full screen and sit back to enjoy hearing the story behind these wonderful creations. Keep up the good work!

[@kalindos]

I've been watching this channel for years. It just amazes me on the stuff you come up with. I just wanted to say thank you for everything you do. It has help me so much with my miniature painting. Keep it up.

[@Chill1332]

It's awesome to finally really meet one of the characters that live in this amazing world. He looks great, and honestly, I think the slouched shoulders work well with an old man. You know I bet you COULD do a book. With pictures of your builds and the little mini stories that go with them.

[@chriscooper654]

As ever, love the lore and Leo's backstory. He strikes me as one of those quiet people who pass unnoticed by their contemporaries but attain prominence sometime after their death. Perhaps later generations in what was the Wild Imaginary West will see Leo as a pioneering naturalist or famous amateur scientist.

[@caitchri2426]

If you were wanting to hear a real life, story of an old, grizzled bear hunter- then look up The Sankebetsu Bear by Bob Gymlan. It is a retailing of a real story of a man eating bear in Japan, who got hunted down. Bob has a similar, soothing voice to Boylie.

[@JayhanLordofCats]

That's amazing, Leo sound like he has seen some wild things, that was awesome sculpting Boylei 😺😺🤘🤘👍👍

[@ManmadeM0nster]

This project is unbelievably good.

[@Boltergeist117]

Man, more content in this scale would be sick. Leo is awesome.

[@the_chubby_jedi9189]

I love watching these specifically because of the universe

[@BullmanBuiltRC]

Watching you break into larger scale is awesome.

[@jgame8730]

Mythic Humanoid Titans would be cool in the Wild Imaginary West.

[@shonfox3746]

Hope to see more of Leo. Him crouched in foliage writing in his journal as he observes the Wild Imaginary West's Wildlife...

[@annbrookens945]

It's nice to further our acquaintance with Leo! Using that figure as a base does encourage a realistic completed character....

[@xrodr2]

The sculpting is so insanely good

[@serious-power3085]

Video Idea: showcase your entire collection of dioramas that you have built. I am a massive fan! Keep up the awesome work!!

[@georgikens7516]

im LOVING the different scale of stuff you're making! seems like something i would see in a history museum of the WIW

[@scaleffect]

Always fun to see something new for the imaginary west. Thanks for sharing your hard work.

[@Blayzn18]

I would definitely love to see Leo finally meet the Golden Bear and it's not what you expect!

[@mohammedkasim-i4e]

while watching your WILD IMAGINARY WEST videos - started thinking of 1 of my favorite child cartoons BRAVE STAR

[@TheDilloWolf]

Love the story of Leo. It's cool to know that some of my favorite dioramas have all featured the same adventurer

[@reddogterrain]

Also, I love storytelling and world you are building.

[@sprucehouse9]

Subtle yet powerful. What a cool idea.

[@eightyplains_mo3745]

Your stuff is so great. Love watching it come together. I think a good idea for this particular guy is instead of his hand holding the sling, his forearm is putting weight on it while his hand is holding a cigar that glows.

[@bevsartsandcrafts715]

That clothing template hack is just what I needed 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 love your work and you’re one of the best narrators ❤

[@dternst]

It’s a small detail but I think the slouch for Leo works for the length of time and the life that he’s lived in the “Wild Imaginary West”. As always, a great diorama with a great story.

[@shaqtus3365]

I would love to see a version of Leo's journal released on the merch store once you have enough creatures in the Wild Imaginary West, I'd 100% buy it and I think it would be awesome to just sit down and read through it and about some of Leo's travels, maybe you could even try and write a whole book about Leo and his adventures.

[@melindajohnson3394]

Quite the character, 1:12 scale is my favorite. But any scale at adds to the WIW is also my favorite.

[@Pappa_Palpatine]

awesome job!! I imagine Leo to be maybe the first person who would actually want to or possibly even be the first person to successfully observe these creatures and live rather than just kill/avoid them like everyone else. Amazing world building with just one video.

[@griffinwolf5704]

Love the water n the footprint!

[@NordsternLP]

"Beware of an old man in a profession where men usually die young." Great work!

[@josephupchurch7138]

A series of short films about the WIW would be awesome, especially with the Corridor boys doing the visual effects.

[@douglasbadger9049]

One of your coolest builds, what creativity

[@JAMMD17]

Legends say he still wanders the vast Wild Imaginary West to this day

[@oisinholz]

Love the hunched posture of this old geezer

[@XaviusNight]

Professor Leo and his Wild-Dex as he fills it out one bit at a time with every big and scary thing in the Wild Imaginary West. Very much a lovely idea ^^

[@toodlesX14]

I hadn't realized Leo had appeared in multiple previous builds, what a cool reveal!

[@garykingaby9154]

Another amazing diorama thank you

[@aaronwarrior]

My local charity(thrift) shop had this same figure brand new inbox for £5 yesterday! Now I have an excuse to purchase it as to start my own wild imaginary west. Thanks for the inspiration Leo, oh and you of course Boylei(sorry had too). Awesome video as always 👍👍👍👍

[@irish3335]

Just amazing - your bravery in jumping into any model type, size, or especially figures is awesome! Loved watching this one, thanks for sharing

[@Scrungly127]

Model idea: Would love to see a giant horned lizard spewing eye blood at some travelers Also love your videos

[@harbinger4]

I also had a model idea for the entire week, he could do the scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark, where they open the ark.

[@PrimoREWard]

Gave you a like because I saw your comment fell victim to a copypasta bot. Great idea as well, I would love to see that.

[@Doombot_]

Always enjoy taking a break, sitting back and watching your videos. There's a certain calmness in the process that's just entirely relaxing. Excellent job as always Boylei.

[@benives254]

Amazing as always! Don't give up on the action figure idea. KZbin is a (mostly) mostly friendly community, maybe put some feelers out to any content creators that make clothes, or better yet, dolls clothes! They might enjoy making some travel worn mini garments, maybe a backpack, and you'd both perhaps get viewers you not have otheriwse.

[@grapewlad]

O, thanks, it's really awesome, incredible ❤

[@thenosreme007]

Haha 10:10 "giardia-green water"! A description that I can appreciate, after my own run-in with giardia years and years ago 😅

[@paperdoll1982]

I work in 1:12 scale so to see you work in the same scale is thrilling to me!

[@echodelta2426]

another excellent tutorial. Your sculpting is a work of art, but I specially love the lore.

[@ArmouryTerrain]

It is good to hear a little more of Leo's Story.

[@coolFlame]

This might be your best one yet. Stunning work.

[@aaronbono4688]

Leo's got to be one of my favorite characters, a real cool dude.

[@Xerock]

Love your wild west stuff.

[@sweetiemalene2620]

A good gift to get on my birthday a video from you 😁🥰✌️

[@tomtruesdale6901]

Another outstanding diorama. Very nicely done.

[@Dan_Does]

I love this.

[@philRminiatures]

Excellent as usual, love the work on the base and his tired look... 👍👍😍😍

[@zacateck]

Amazing work as always. We need to see more larger scale characters like this!

[@cerisekappes580]

Looks so real!!!! Beautifully made 😊

[@palerider7171]

The WIW is a wonderfully terrifying place after all…. Look forward to more stories and builds with Leo! Thanks for sharing!

[@GRIBLYGROBLY]

PLEEEEEEEAAAASE MAKE A LEO JOURNAL! It would be so good!

[@och70]

I really want to hang out with Leo and listen to his stories.

[@hazelnut747]

I think this is so awesome! I love the occasional larger scale WIW! This is exactly the kind of thing I have tried to do over the last 2 years, but I'm not quite good at sculpting. I love the steady increase in lore and how you've tied several projects together with this character's past. I hope you have an awesome week and I can't wait to see the next project!

[@grandmoff.alligator]

great moc, very smart, love the lore bits too.

[@dragonlfwgaming6008]

Leo climbed the Rockies with one hand behind his back and the other fighting a giant eagle! What a legend!

[@WerewolfGrandpa]

very good, love to see more at this scale

[@Atbel]

Such a cool diorama and also getting to see some wild imaginary west in a little bit of a bigger scale!

[@jasonshiers5771]

Brilliant as always

[@ericschultz2730]

1) please make a "Leo's guide of monsters and men" book for us to read. 2) Leo immediately reminded me of a western gandalf when you were describing him and how everyone knows of him, and how he's a legend of sorts.
