Boylei Q&A Time!

[@Buzzregog]

It sounds like there needs to be an imaginary west diorama featuring a giant mouse/rat. Great way to do an end of year video, thanks for all the time you put into these that you share.

[@harm2714]

with a bag full of twigs

[@lazyboyz5472]

King rat with a rat colony guarding a dead bison man

[@marshawargo7238]

To intimidate the real mice? Maybe a raggedy kitty cat with a mouse in it's mouth!

[@mason5390]

please make a rat king

[@harm2714]

@@pallyk3780 I'd love that idea. Maybe some monsters aren't that evil afterall.

[@BPCustomCreations]

What a body of work! It's been great seeing you grow in your craft over the past couple years.

[@wallabaatar]

I've seen many "year end summaries" by KZbinrs, and this is the best I've ever seen. It gives so much insight into your hobby life, and in a way that is insightful, compelling and inspirational. Thanks for another great year, Boylei, and here's to many more to come!!

[@horizonsforge]

Whoah! Thank you so much for the shout out of my channel! I've been under the weather all weekend and this really made me feel much better!

[@modelermark172]

This was unexpected, but interesting nonetheless. If you are still in a question answering mood, I have one that came to mind when you said there are "stories" for your Wild, Imaginary West: Have you ever tried your hand at writing; either original stories or fanfiction? Thanks for all your project videos, and here's to many, many more to come!

[@hbjong3092]

I don’t know if i read or heard it somewhere, or if I made it up, but I think i remember something about him writing short stories or a novel of some sort! His storytelling in his videos, combined with the creation of these works of art is awesome, so I think his written stories would/will be as well Edit: Wow im stupid haha, i did not read your comment thoroughly and hadn't watched the video yet

[@Jaasau]

“I’m Old Greg.” LOL 😂😂 Gandalf and the Balrog is my favorite, but I also like all your stuff involving fire.

[@garrettyadon3861]

Loved this! Crazy that you basically have two full time jobs. Takes away any excuses I may have about productivity

[@gurde3596]

This is absolutely incredible, you're the greatest artist I've ever heard about! (still waiting for the binary sunset on Tatooine diorama)

[@stu3379]

Ghost Wind..... of course it was! BAHAHAHAHA.... The dry delivery made my weekend!! So funny. Love your dio's and your wit! Wishing you the best 2023 ever. Thank you for the continued inspiring content!

[@raymondo162]

yup. was a spot-on answer.....................

[@SabrinasWorkshop]

Thanks for the support Boylei, really appreciate it ☺️ And I will also add that if you ever sell any of your creations, I'd happily make room on my shelf for one!

[@KutWrite]

Me, too!

[@Mauzzewulf]

Finally, another person who likes rouge one! I personally think it’s a really good take on the set up for the originals since we don’t get too much context in the first original

[@Badbhoys]

Its my second favourite sw movie

[@och70]

I think 'Rogue One' is a little slow in places, but the Battle of Scarif, and the Darth Vader scene make it worth having in my Star Wars movie collection. It's a good bridge between the prequels (those have their flaws) and the original trilogy. I hate the Disney sequels.

[@JacopoSkydweller]

@@och70 I think that slow in places is peak Star Wars. Rewatch the original movies, they're pretty dang slow overall. It's a sci-fi epic, not sci-fi mega action fast paced madness.

[@ChickensTabletopCrafting]

Thank you so much for the shout out. I'm really honored. Your amazing. Wish you and your family merry Christmas and a happy new year. Have a great time. Best regards Chicken

[@chrisdietrich4627]

SELL THEM, ILL BUY ONE

[@BananaGod12]

Same

[@unpreparedwithacapitalf]

Totally

[@내능지어디감]

Yup. Would love to buy one ❤️

[@Jegcy]

Good idea

[@King_GeeDora]

I'll buy them all 🥰🥰🥰

[@CajunCraftastrophe]

It's amazing to see all of your work in one place, C! Your skill level rocks my world. Thanks for the mentions my friend. Merry Christmas. : )

[@thetuguar]

I love your builds, but more importantly, I love your vibe, man. You're so chill, so masterful and confident, that it genuinely feels good listening to you and seeing your projects done. Thank you for your content

[@AndrewKuntzman]

I don’t know what I would do without dioramas in my life. Thank goodness those are in the plans. Otherwise I wouldn’t be able to get up on Sunday mornings

[@jordanlarson6488]

I'm really impressed you manage this whole channel and Patreon while also working another full-time job. 30+ hours is a lot to add to a 40 hour work week.

[@Themodelman]

Loved seeing all the dioramas together, made an amazing thumbnail!

[@Tomy_Yon]

Such a wild and crazy universe. I really liked the crocodile + boat diorama, because in the end he did had 'fun' with the making of the boot. 😀

[@sarge27271]

I have to say that you are one hell of a talented model builder. I put you up there with Luke Towan. Kudos bud. This is definitely your forte!! Keep 'Em Coming! Cheers and Merry Christmas!

[@bawdydog176]

Thank you! Always a pleasure, whatever your topic or project.

[@anthonyhargis6855]

Just don't stop building. We love your work.

[@dieterreteid6365]

Don´t repair the branches, that were eaten by the mouse. I think it would be awesome, if you instead made a Diorama with a massive, herbivour rodent, that eats branches of trees! :D

[@Spectralyzed]

Agreed!

[@tattoodfreeek]

I'm glad you're working on material for the wild imaginary west. Seriously love the ideas you've had with those models. They just beg to be elaborated on

[@wew7884]

Really nice way to do a Q&A / retrospective! As always, the vibe is impeccable - can't wait to see what you do next.

[@Dan_Does]

How did you turn all those lights on without moving the models in the first scene!? You're the best, buddy. Thanks so much for the shoutout. Means a lot. Merry Christmas.

[@jaymc7042]

You’re my Sunday morning tradition. A cup of coffee and a lil Boylei is a great way to start the day.

[@raymondo162]

afternoon tea.............

[@karremania]

The most i still like about your video's, your calm voice, the combination of amazing craftwork with a great voiceover.. just amazing to watch/listen :)

[@Rw28560]

Bro I love your videos so much, you are the one youtuber I could watch when I'm bored, when I'm going to sleep, when I wake up and even on the bus. Don"t stop the great content.

[@jmacefire6581]

As someone who isn’t even into crafting or dioramas, these videos are always so relaxing to watch. Glad I stumbled upon the channel!

[@robertknapp3191]

Great review of 22, looking forward to 23

[@nothingsurprisesmeanymore]

I'd just like to say thank you Mr Hobby Time for entertaining my Sunday nights (UK) as your wonderful work soothing voice and excellent sense of humour relaxes me for sleep before my dreaded week at work, I thank you.

[@raymondo162]

Bless. x. and may 2023 bring you a much better job

[@sgordon92]

me and my wife love your work, and whilst it will probably be a total mess, im going to attempt my first diorama because of your videos. look forward to more great builds in the future

[@PKTCrafts]

I have learned a lot from all of your beautiful diorama builds man. Thanks for making sundays fun! And thanks for the shout out, you are the best!

[@nickv.1292]

I like how you answered questions that were very random and gave everyone a good answer 👍🏼 I’ve been watching your videos since the beginning of this year and you just keep getting better! Keep up the good work! 💪🏼

[@KnarbMakes]

Loved this QA video. Keep on building man! Happy holidays!

[@LaughingInTiny]

I super appreciate that you try to support local suppliers. ❤ Everyone these days just automatically goes to Amazon, then nobody understands why all the businesses go under. I get the convenience, but that's a huge hit to the economy. I even see small business owners on KZbin saying "i bought this on Amazon" not realizing that they just shot themselves in the foot.

[@singularitygaming4893]

I love that he almost always starts the videos out with super chill lo-fi music, along with relaxing commentary. Keep up the great work!

[@euansmith3699]

Thanks for so many super relaxing moments over the past year.

[@barryjack3025]

Well, that was fun. This was a busy year. Keep the Wild Imaginary West stuff separate, bundle the idea together and pitch it to Netflix! Imagine that as a tv series?!! Great work. Take a week off! See you next year!

[@phantommenace5407]

cant wait for new projects in 2023. my personal favorite are your subterranean builds.

[@CXHo-sy1xz]

I've talked to this guy 1:1 before. He's really chill. He's the embodiment of chill and it is as calming as it sounds

[@jabzilla21]

Ghost Wind comment was great. It makes sense too, as most "ghost" ships seem to use their own wind and still catch their prey ships. I like the logic.

[@volttherobot]

Love all the "glowy bits" in your dioramas. Also love all the other bits that DON'T glow. Sorry to hear that you were sick, but I am happy that you have returned to full functionality. Hope 2023 is a creative and positive one for you. xoxo -Volt

[@Clay-qq5vb]

i dont know why this made me tear up. maybe it's because i've had a rough year and your biweekly videos and all that have really helped me through it. cant wait for what's in store :)

[@JustOneRedSoloCup]

I absolutely enjoyed the creative journey with the Wild Imaginary West series. It would be great to see more dioramas of this type for 2023. You have some serious imaginative talent!

[@thomaskhoo803]

Hey, please keep the flames burning! You're always quote the BEST-yet-Top-Notch unquote! Wishing you have a fabulous 2023 of new year! Yeah!!

[@tomdeangelis4856]

I subscribed this year. I have been watching your back collection as well as every new video. You are so easy to watch and your talent blows my mind! Looking forward to 2023.

[@Voirreydirector]

Simply lovely, dear! I adore the mood music and it was such a great gift to see your work again. Thank you for allowing us into your imagination.

[@oceanman6351]

Really cool to get more insight and behind the camera Boylei info, can’t wait for the next video!

[@mikemacmillan5437]

You were recommended to me this year and I was captivated right away. Love the editing style and I love the commentation. Looking forward to next year!

[@rey-o]

what a wonderful body of work, thank you for being an inspiration and here's to an excellent 2023!

[@mattven5744]

I like large scale fight dioramas they look so cool, the one where you done the war hammer, military, Star Wars, knights it looked amazing.

[@thesynnove]

I love watching you build your dioramas... It's wonderful to see someone with so much creativity bring his works to life. I really hope you bring your Wild Imaginary West to 'life' in a novel or comic book one day, as the entire idea is an amazing one!

[@ScottBourke]

Thats an amazing collection of builds mate. Thanks for taking us all along for the ride. Have refered back to your videos often this year when working on a commission.

[@riancurrans]

Hi Boylei I have been watching your youtube channel for around two months now and I have loved you’re western videos and would just like to say if you could make a big farm so all the people can have food , it’s just not doing to well , it would be something that me and other irish people would love to see.

[@minip1geon]

If you don't mind I'm gonna use the concept of your "Wild Imaginary West" to make a D&D campaign. The ideas and scenes have given me so much inspiration. Thanks for the year and cheers to a further successful one!

[@Alldayeveryday404]

Thank you so much for another solid years worth of builds! Your videos are my go-to for relaxation. Can't wait to see what you make in 2023!

[@9-Times]

Great video. I’m already looking forward to next year’s and imagining what it’ll include!

[@debbralehrman5957]

Ok had to LOL at the Bailey's out of the shoe question. You have done an amazing amount of projects this year. Great work!

[@Rebelwolf2023]

This is one the coolest videos, you answered questions I've always wondered about.. seeing all the projects I've watch this year brings back memories , some i seen i forgot about and got to see again. Thank you. Nacho libra great ...

[@arcanewarsong]

Thanks for sharing this video and your work. It's always nice to find out a little bit about the artist I follow. I find your videos inspiring and relaxing.

[@tjs0004]

Baileys from a shoe, lol. Nice Mighty Boosh reference. "I'm old Greeeeeeg!"

[@darrylhilbig6459]

As always, an interesting vid. I tend to store them in my hints playlist for model making as they interest me. Thank you for a good year of work and entertaining videos. 👍💯🎊🎉

[@pr0digalsun]

Thanks for sharing! Your videos always pass the vibe check

[@bv657]

The video we all been wanting! Create a museum! I would pay to see everyone of these in person

[@none3662]

I like this channel, arts and crafts and dioramas, maybe when i get a school project that involves dioramas, i thank fate for bringing me here hehe

[@fernandofierro7958]

Super 😎.... What a wonderful Gift 💓FATHER💛 gave you.... Make more..

[@LightsNcrafts]

All really amazing builds. Can't wait to see what you'll be working on in 2023!

[@KathyMillatt]

It’s great to see everything you’ve built this year. What a stunning collection.

[@mistac5050]

This was a really cool video and I'm glad that you made it. Was great taking a trip down memory lane, I had forgotten so many of these. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to more incredible builds, especially from your imaginary wild west series.

[@moneydontjiggle6608]

this is the only channel on KZbin I regularly check to see new videos, so talented and humble could watch them all day. A bank Robbery scene is defo needed in the wild imaginary west.

[@noqualitydioramas]

Very good video! And very productive dioramas year! Thanks you for inspiration)))

[@nileswilson577]

You are the man, thanks you answered a lot of things I was thinking. From some one who has no talent at all you were the best person ever to find on U Tube, Thanks for the entertainment in the art and modeling world. Can't wait to see what you come up with next, great videos. Do keep them coming. 😁👍☃️🎄

[@apathtrampledbydeer8446]

Thanks for sharing and thank you for the inspiration! Have great X-mas/Hanukkah/Kwanza/Saturnalia/Midvinterblot and a fantastic new year!

[@michaelholts1598]

Love that summary. You do incredible work. We’re looking forward to 2023!

[@MistressofWu]

I can think that anyone would realisticly think you would just throw these away after putting so much work into them! Especially since we get to see the WIW town's return every time you complete a new piece, or a companion piece. I adore how much the general idea for your WIW has evolved and the details that you have come up with over the time I have watched you build. I hope for more in 2023, and I'd love to see some more Cryptid style monsters in the mix :D Have a great day, a epic holiday season, and a fantastic start to your new year!!

[@oisinholz]

For sure up there in my top favourite KZbin channels. Hope you had a great year and looking forward to another year of content!

[@oisinholz]

@boyleihobby oh yes, please come contact me at the bottom of the ocean. Only will answer if you come contact me wearing lead blocks on your feet. Absolute goshite

[@MrMagicchrisi]

It is so amazing to see what you are doing with all your creativity and what beautiful pieces are the results. Thanks a lot for your fantastic work and for sharing all that with us! One question though remains for my wife and myself: a video of your hobby store! You always come up with amazing things from there so we would love to see some sneak peak footage of it 🥰

[@Kevin-xs5mw]

Thank you for all the time and effort you use to entertain us. Keep it going cheers for another year of success and more to come

[@kenspriggs5687]

What an amazing body of work! Just incredible!

[@mrscotchguy]

Stumbled on this. Subbed. Thank you for the slow, clear voiceover. Most tabletop creators get a bit too excited and cringy for my taste. Keep up the great work!

[@haydennix8223]

My interests include baseball Star Wars and call of duty. My Star Wars interest have nothing to do with dioramas or figurines or anything and it is not what brought me here. I have no idea why, but I cannot get enough of these videos. I am not artistic I am not know for appreciating art. The stuff you do I had never had any interest in and definitely made fun of my friend who did similar ish stuff because I thought it was weird. BUT!! I have told ALL and I do mean all of my friends about boylei hobby time and I have shown them videos and probably driven them nuts talking about how crazy talented and creative you have to be to do some of the things you do! Absolutely love the lights you use and the tactics you use to show your creations at the end of your videos. Very very very well done and I hope you’ll keep doing this for as long as you enjoy it (which I hope is a long time because I certainly enjoy seeing it)

[@och70]

This was really cool. It's always great when content creators can interact with channel supporters this way. Looking forward to the final 2022 project, and what 2023's dioramas will be.

[@atticus-rex]

Thank God more dioramas! Happy 2023 Bud!

[@BstonJoker5]

Thank you for all your videos this year. Your projects are amazing and bring me so much joy each week.

[@saulnaylor751]

Honestly, great body of work, you make my sundays, sitting down to watch your projects with a nice cup of tea (keeping with the English stereotype) and i just want to say thank you for how much work you put in and for giving us a glimpse at your art. I can't wait to see more!

[@andygorman858]

Amazing, stunning, awesome, inspiring……and Nacho Libre for the win!

[@Pikachew675]

The idea of a video with north of the border and boylei hoddy time is something I so want

[@ellieB5806]

I love your imaginary wild west dioramas and the arch is my absolute favourite. Looking forward to your next build in this series. Have a great holiday season!

[@davidf2281]

Woah, the Wild Imaginary West is going to be a proper cohesive town! Huge news!

[@Windlassed]

Hello, not sure if this will be read, but I wanted to thank you for the video/ diorama you made about ‘Outer Wilds’ I thought the diorama and the description of the game you gave were very interesting and I decided to check it out. I’m now halfway through my first play through and it is my favorite game I’ve ever played. So I wanted to say thank you.

[@cherrybramble]

Loved to watch this, and to learn some things about the man behind the fish. While I shy away from dioramas, I love to paint and sketch. best of luck boylei, I hope you have merry holidays and a festive new year!

[@occamsrayzor]

Thank you for all of your work this year, mate. I always find your videos to be simultaneously relaxing and inspirational.

[@danielcgomez]

Great Stuff Boylei! I'm glad I found your channel, and have had the chance to follow along with all these builds so far. Looking forward to next year! HAVE A GREAT Holiday Season!

[@NotaDutchGuy]

Dude, you have been one of my favorite finds on KZbin this year. I love watching your wild imaginary west builds! :D See you next year for sure

Thank you so much for your channel. We truly love it. It's great to someone doing something so vocational. Take good care and we look forward to seeing more of your videos ☺️
