[@angrytoiletpaper1912]

i respectfully refuse kind sir.

[@peasaladdeluxe6392]

wow hits different now

[@SkippyGranola]

You guys are as important to the finished product as any of the on screen talent.

[@joaomarcelopinheiromagalha3355]

They're a talent on screen as well. Their marvelous artwork brings life to the story on screen.

[@alicepersson9568]

There is no greater feeling then when Brennan takes off the roofs of what I though we're solid houses. blows me away every time

[@countjondi9672]

I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to all who did such amazing work on every Dimension20 set. This is to me what has really guaranteed that every fight is fun and mermorable.

[@kevinomalley1090]

Oh my Gods. Brennan gets a full fucking production crew for his games. And they're *SO GOOD AT THEIR JOBS.* Like, every single one of these people are awesome.

[@orangecatandsuch]

Just the other day, after binging the first six episodes of Fantasy High and The Unsleeping City, I did a couple of searches for the modelers/production crew in the credits to see some more of their work and I couldn't find anyone's personal website. It was pretty disappointing not to be able to see how these awesome sets come together, but this is right on time to answer my questions. What a great job they do!

[@stevenalexander9644]

i would watch a whole show of just this, these guys working and sharing tips but i imagine they are too busy, keep up the great work!

[@bast713]

I'm newer to Dimension 20, but I have to say every season, every set, every special effect, the art crew just does such a phenomenal job. They make magic for us.

[@pleasantvegetable]

Oh HELL YES. This is the best content.

[@snowysnowwish]

this is so freaking awesome. the minis truly make the game even better.

[@bluepearl9204]

A lot of them are from a system called hero forge, it's free to use online and you can order the minis

[@daygoeson]

Yes!! Ive been waiting for this for a while. Talk about a dream job. Been painting figurines and sets for about 8 years now and watching this team work their magic just gets me in such a creative headspace.

[@TenaciousP45]

I know the deeper we go the more niche this gets but can we just have time lapses of the art for these shows. I'd watch i love these sets.

[@jauxro]

Huh, yeah. Untapped Dropout show idea

[@SirVer51]

Holy shit, these sets are constructed in just a few days?! I assumed most of it is done in advance of the season because I didn't think it was possible to make such incredible stuff on the fly. That's fucking amazing.

[@giualonso]

The minis are completely amazing! Those guys are genius, congrats!

[@bluepearl9204]

A lot of them are from hero forge

[@jodinsan]

The set pieces and set design are really what drew me to Dimension 20. The absolutely huge attention to detail in everything they have built is wild. My favorite has to be the multi-tired water trap in the sewers.

[@SnapGrapplePop]

Dimension 20 has redefined D&D live play for me. There are other shows that I watch and like, but D20’s greatness has made them all a little bit worse in comparison.

[@explolsivecake2045]

After getting Dropout it feels good to see the ‘spoilers for Unsleeping City’ and being able to just be like ‘ *what of it?* ‘

[@ikeekieeki]

thank you, i love to see the skilled craftsmanship

[@VictoriaPKirk]

Rick and his team really do fabulous work. It's inspiring

[@natalianiciecka1568]

I love this show so much! Everyone involved puts so much effort into it! The amount of details in these sets is incredible!

[@fakingitwithstyle]

I love seeing videos like this. I've been DM'ing a game for about 2 years, and seeing how many people it takes to create something as amazing as the Dimension 20 sets helps keep my expectations in check for myself too - being only 1 person. Such awesome work!

[@ISEGaming]

4:56 That would explain why Rick Perry has such high CHA ;)

[@emessar]

Big kudos to art and design. You guys really help bring these games to life. I've been making comments about you in the other videos. I'm glad you get a little bts time give your your dues.

[@zacr4664]

thank you for doing this, so much work goes into something so small to the show, that makes a big difference. Love the behind the scenes stuff!

[@lilatwyx2789]

I was wondering about that the whole time. These guys are awesome!!

[@BlackShadow1991]

The level of expertise, dedication and sheer fucking talent beggars belief o_O Keep up being awesome, Dimension 20 Staff & Crew.

[@admiralackbar3102]

As a dnd fan who loves collecting and painting minis this video is just amazing.

[@MGG87]

Such incredible talent. I wish I could have just a portion of these set ups.

[@froginatub]

Wonder what the career path is that leads you to this job?

[@paolarosano8051]

Production Design

[@shadowopal]

The sets are amazing. I couldn't believe a dm had created all these sets while creating a universe. We should all be so lucky to have such a talented team helping us create our worlds. Well done all.

[@st4ne4rmthevill63]

This was really fucking entertaining & cool to see. I would love for more content like this to be put out.

[@alicepersson9568]

Through all of fantasy high and the unsleeping city, ever battle episode Hamblin me away. Happy I get to see how it's made

[@GazpachoTabletop]

There is just SO much effort that goes into every aspect of Dimension 20 and I appreciate it all

[@DuchessRococoPuff]

They do incredible work! I’m always so charmed by (and often in awe of) the minis and the sets! What a cool team!

[@hardino0311]

Love your work crew! And... “when I was a kid, DND was a devils game”... same here bro. Whoever TF robbed my childhood from being able to play this awesome game is legit THE DEVIL 😈

[@VampireHeart518]

Insane! Amazing work!! (yeah, the flooding pieces are brilliant!)

[@ithinklikeawesome]

I REAAALLLY wanna see the wrestling orcs now

[@harpbeat500]

i would love to see more mini / art department behind the scenes, for the show

[@starringvincentprice]

I'm guessing that the minis are made in heroforge? They look like they are from there

[@robertcapestany6019]

It would depend on what's needed. Some would have to be added on to with non-purchasable items.

[@manticorephoenix]

The character minis for sure

[@TheGIJew.]

they said in one of the other behind-the-scene videos that they got them from all kinds of different places

[@bluepearl9204]

Yea, they should credit them and the other mini maker suppliers

[@justbeyondthecornerproduct3540]

It's unmistakably Heroforge

[@Littlehickish]

i find this so so interesting! i’d love to see more about the individual sets

[@broceratops1337]

dudes! y'all really elevate the show. thanks for letting us take a peak behind the curtain!

[@davidrosenberg9615]

I have been wondering who does all this stuff. What a hero! It must be such a cool job

[@ghoul3d]

THANK YOU! I asked about this back in the first season of Fantasy High, do you guys have tutorials on KZbin or 3D renders to print?

[@isabellasevillaaguilera9679]

Absolute Legends

[@madebyboys]

Just seems like a nice guy doing a great job x

[@urktheturtle2988]

These guys are amazing. Thank you so much for making thia video and showing us their hard work.

[@noahzer0295]

Yeee always wondered about these little guys btw I am new to dnd because I saw a add and decided to watch thanks for getting me into this amazing game

[@blairbird8022]

Some heroes don't wear capes.

[@margusgrenzmann3977]

My thanks to Perry and the whole D20 team for all the awesome. It's beautiful and it always works together and is brought to life in an amazing way.

[@BboySteppzAP]

The things I would do to intern for this team...

[@pratibhapersonal6737]

ok thats it let this man be on the cast!!!!

[@robbiespitzner7071]

I feel like I want to give Rick Perry a big hug

[@RegstarRogstar]

YYYYYYEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MY HEROES

[@marxmeesterlijk]

everybody wants to be paid to DM, but this is the real dream job right here. :)

[@noisemaker432]

I wish very much that I could work with/for these people, it seems like such a challenging yet fun way to shows of artistic talent because it makes you ask questions like "wait how would I go about modeling a sexy nightmare rat?"

[@NeonSheepProductions]

The used Hero Forge to create their character Minis I have fun recreating them on that site

[@tubbdoose]

The minis are so cool

[@logannorthrop1315]

This is pretty dope.

[@pannenkoekspek]

Holy shit! it's PRICEMASTER!

[@sylargray8913]

I would have thought u guys would have used 3d printing ahaha well who knows if u get big enough maybe ul get one. Was fun to learn how its all made thxs homies and keep up the great work!

[@LucaBirchtrees]

CAUTION: FIRE 😂

[@ISEGaming]

Thank you for the spoiler warning :p

[@Sid-ok5bz]

OMG Rick and his team r so fucking cool, I can only hope to scratch their ability when I attempt to build my terrain

[@eliza6971]

I'm really glad D20 did this video because every time they shout out the props Ally goes "Rick Perry!" then I google Rick Perry and all I find is the d***k from Florida.

[@angrytoiletpaper1912]

THE MAN THE MYTH THE LEGEN- I HOPE YOURE NOT LACTOSE INTOLERANT-DAIRY RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICK PEEEEERRRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@SuperAustinFTW]

I would love for this to be my job.

[@dillion308]

[@matnolen1368]

Professional kitbashers

[@lilatwyx2789]

5:38 D&D aka Dark Lord and Demons

[@markfrellips5633]

kit bashing masterclass

[@lukaszeman2924]

Speaking of spoilers to Unsleeping city, where is the rest? You show spoilers from episodes that are not out yet. Or is anything past ep8 pt2 exlusive to dropout? Thanks for answer.

[@swallowsbreath]

part 2 is exclusive to dropout yeah. you get a week's free trial tho so you could probs binge it

[@zackw3644]

I want this job

[@lordadmiralnelson9816]

If they knew about Hero Forge, the mini making process would be much easier Edit: Nvm I can tell that the models are Heroforge

[@blinkingeyetheatre]

Why did I think Rick Perry was actually Brennan wearing a costume???

[@stan_nonna]

No shout out to Hero Forge?

[@brunomaples]

Which miniature is that at 2:05 ??

[@bluepearl9204]

Do they mention hero forge

[@chrisd5169]

This sounds like torture

[@eb6840]

First?
