How to Make an EPIC Dragon Attack Diorama | Ralaxing Craft DIY

[@ChickensTabletopCrafting]

Thank you for the opportunity to work with you on this great project. That was a lot of fun and an honor. Greetings Chicken

[@python2198]

The tavern looks amazing!

[@mistac5050]

Love your tavern, what a beautiful build!

[@wallabaatar]

Just finished watching your tavern video. Excellent craftsmanship and painting! Love the collaboration!

[@ChickensTabletopCrafting]

​@@python2198thanks a lot

[@ChickensTabletopCrafting]

​@@mistac5050thank you

The dragon being kept aloft by his own flames might be the single most impressive effect you've created yet, and the fence-post switch is so clever I almost can't believe it! Incredible stuff!

[@LOVEMUFFIN_official]

Not to mention that this is, by far and away, his best flame effect implementation yet.

[@SlartiMarvinbartfast]

And to add to that, the effect still looks nearly as great when the LED filaments are switched off, such is the high quality of the painting on the smoke.

[@AlexDiesTrying]

It's a very cool trick indeed.

[@Leonagraphy]

The idea to turn the switch into a fencepost was brilliant. It feels almost like those secret levers in old mansions.

[@KeysoftheLord]

And when flipped back it looks like it broke during the attack (or its just old and falling apart).

[@isaknilsson71]

Would have loved it even more flipped around such that the light is off when the post is askew. Then, an unknowing person trying to ”fix” it back in place could be surprised by the fire lighting up XD

[@Heroasteral]

It was the best thing I have seen all week! And I've seen soe pretty neat things!

[@thatotherguy7596]

I would suggest dropping the rails down at the switch end of the fence so it doesn't look like they're floating when it's switched on. Excellent piece of art regardless 👍

[@darrelld.paveyjr.1477]

Yes Sir Same Here!!! Just like the Abbott & Costello's or Vincent Price's horror movies.

[@wallabaatar]

“This dragon hates merriment”. Well, then this dragon hates how I feel every time I watch a Boylei video! This collaboration is incredibly cool, and the dragon fire is straight up 🔥! Love this!!!

[@modelermark172]

The way you suspended the 'flying' dragon AND the clever way you hid the light switch is nothing short of inspired! Your diorama really does Chickens Tabletop Crafting Tavern justice! Thanks for sharing this with us!

[@corbindoesthings1795]

we need more fantasy/medieval dioramas

[@mistac5050]

With as epic as this build is, the thing that I enjoyed the most was watching you turn on the lights at the end by gently moving the fence post. Could this be the beginning of "Crazy Imaginary Medieval Town"?!?! A man can dream.

[@setoace]

Others may thing I'm exaggerating, but I'm always left speechless seeing the end-result of your diorama... Amazing as always and so satisfying to watch.

[@carrie4910]

Freaking awesome. Very clever way to make the dragon look like it’s airborne. Great collaboration build!

[@Blibers]

This feels like one of my older brother's artworks, his style is so cozy and fills me with nostalgia. Absolutely Wonderful!

[@wcox4]

Your work and ideas are out of this world. I'd love to see you do a diorama of the 1953 War of the Worlds Martian tripods and attack scene.

[@StewartFletcher]

Straight up, your fire effects might be the most impressive part of your already thoroughly impressive channel

[@jadedbailey]

The diorama is amazing, but the dragon's fire breath was top notch!

[@karengilchrist9774]

Fabulous diorama! The whole thing is so great! Love the way the Fire breaks on the heroe's shield, love the dragon suspended in the air, love the little thief! And, the Tavern is amazing!

[@sugarsammy7209]

Bro picked the wrong tavern to mess with. Also love dioramas that tell multiple stories at once, the guy sneaking out the back with stuff is a good little story that we could see happening in a crisis

[@wanton-strumpet]

this is so incredible love the fire breath felting idea

[@jasonshiers5771]

It isn't Sunday till this man uploads

[@lilliankeane5731]

That’s excellent, thank you for showing us.

[@chasonlapointe]

Fantastic work, you really did Chicken's amazing Tavern build justice!

[@samueljohnston9639]

Probably one of the best dioramas I’ve ever watched be made on KZbin, I absolutely love this one

[@Misha..K]

The levitating dragon looks magical 💜

[@CF_Joel]

The most epic nightlight ever!!!

[@SturleyArt]

That was sick. Another amazing Diorama my friend.

[@xrodr2]

This absolutely RULES! the switch being part of the scenery is huge! Not to mention how dope the fire looks. And the dragon. And the tavern. And the landscape.

[@wAwCreator]

Form is temporary, but class is permanent 🎉

[@Phanterinos]

And when i think you can't "elevate" the level of your creations more than you did already. BAM! You deliver. Love dragons and medieval fantasy dioramas. Amazing

[@coulsonharris2059]

So awesome! You should definitely team up with a stop motion animator and all these fantasies to life!

[@deanr2169]

I've been watching your channel for quite some time now and it inspired me to get into my own crafting stuff (i still kinda suck and don't have much space for a setup but I've been 3d printing and painting. I know you like your western themes, but I would love to see you really do an underwater themed thing, ideally with resin. Your ability to create a story combined with your practical skills could be an awesome creation. I know you've made water based things before, like the watering hole from your western, but maybe a flooded swamp with dangers underneath or fantasy themed would be great.

[@HoverMelon2000]

Idea I had: What if this diorama is in the same universe as the wild imaginary west but it just takes place in Europe much, much earlier?

[@EveryGoddessALetDown]

One of your best creations yet! And the fence post lever was just genius.

[@zachariahtri]

One of the most glorious scenes you have ever made! Love it!

[@Equinox051256]

Very impressive. The artwork is off the charts. Great job!

[@professor4477]

True

[@F.N.G.RC1]

Another great one! You are a true artist. I watch your videos for ideas for my RC crawler courses and truck ideas!

[@toddguenther1568]

Dang, I love watching this one - taverns, dragons, complimentary scrolls, hidden toggle - what more could you ask for? Nice job!

[@bottlecaps2741]

Another fantastic piece. I was wondering if in your imaginary west. are there giant worms similar to the Graboids from Tremors or the sandworms from Dune? Would be interesting to see a diorama like that.

[@elliotdingus]

Incorporating the switch into the scene as a fence post was dead clever! Definitely my favourite to date 😁

[@Musapro786]

Where do u get ur figurines from?

[@SuperChevy187]

My 5yr old son and I watch a video of urs every night before he goes to bed. He loves watching you work and hearing the stories you tell. Every time we go to the hobby store and see figures like the ones you paint he asks me if it is one you did!! Excellent work sir and thank you for making these memories for me.

[@renees766]

That's incredible. It looks like a still shot.

[@erintoal2018]

I could listen to this guy's voice narrate a Dungeons and Dragons campaign all evening. Its so relaxing to listen to instructions and story.😊

[@PJLeblanc]

That, is, insanely insane 😱

[@helenannviccora7743]

Just WOW!!! That's amazing!!!

[@A_Final_Hit]

That looks nothing short of incredible. Hiding the support rod within the dragon's flame is a stroke of genius! 👍🏽👍🏽

[@upbgenoob5488]

Amazing job!Especially when you throw that switch on....Oh my....!

[@fredswartz1969]

5:17 - amazing work on cleaning that cutting mat

[@onkelgroen]

Beautiful diorama! I really love the realistic groundwork you do, with shades and flocking.

[@davework4400]

that IS SOOO incredible!! i love the fence post switch, but if you turned the switch around 180 degrees, it would be standing in the upright position when its on, and leaning when its off...

[@olezha8269]

This is INSANE!! It's so beautiful!! Just wow!

[@sootangel]

oh man oh man this is SWEET 😮‍💨 i love the little fence post lever :) and the dragon is very handsome!!

[@rohitmeshram1412]

Legend has it that a 'ancient secret fence post lever' somewhere in the grasshills is the seal that can give the gargantuan white green dragon its fiery powers!!!

[@johnphilippatos]

The whole construction looked good from the start, but when you turned on the flames in the finished project I was dead in my tracks. Beautiful, just beautiful. But with these flames I fail to see the dragon having a hard time burning everything to ashes.

[@ApertaVulnus]

Enjoying the way your sense of humor has been coming out. If you don't do this for a living, it's a darn shame.

[@sheldonhunt5968]

The flames/smoke look so good both on and off!

[@johngraham8865]

I think that's the most realistic fire you've ever done. Amazing work. That would be displayed at the head of my collection.

[@jazzman782000]

Epic! Hands down my favorite of all the dioramas you have done on here. That flame effect is stunning, and the story the whole scene tells is compelling.

[@daleryland2777]

That's blooming marvellous 😮👍🏻

[@TheCrafsMan]

Mannn I'm out of synonyms for *phenomenal*!!!!! Fantastic collaboration. So glad the felting needles and heat gun trick worked. If I do another filament+felt project, I've got to try the airbrush detailing - that gives such "fire" depth and character.

[@beachbumsdn80]

It seems that with every new session, you try or learn a new way to refine your skills and it shows! This is awesome, from the flame to the terrain to the minis, everything is incredible! Keep it up and as always im lookin forward to the next one.

[@toomanylies7716]

This has to be one of your best fire effects. Didn't think you could top Bowser, but you might have. Even without the light it's very good.

[@Blitz9H]

I thoroughly appreciate how you expand our knowledge of the craftsmanship, and expand our base of knowledge by including others in the hobby. Inspiration, knowledge, and merriment!

[@TheStricklander]

This might actually be my favorite diorama you've done! The "levitation" of the dragon is incredible, coupled with the fencepost switch! Definitely my favorite one so far!

[@boutinboy]

Fantastic job. Such a cool build. The hidden fence post switch was genius. One step further would have been to make the two horizontal fence planks that connect to the switch post movable. Pivotable? Is that a word? lol My thinking is when the switch is upright, the horizontal planks remain how they are in the build. But when the switch is on, and the post is angled, the horizontal planks can be made to rest on the ground as if they actually fell off on that end, due to the post being ajar. If that makes sense. Either way, beautiful work as always!

[@angelsandfaes]

That’s badass. I love Crafsman. He’s pretty cool

[@davestinyworkshopotherprojects]

great work to both you and to @ChickensTabletopCrafting!

[@ChickensTabletopCrafting]

Thank you so much

[@randomviking8676]

That's fantastic! And the felting needle idea is brilliant. 👍

[@rhpmpp]

love the idea to put a secret switch!! you should always do it!

[@ProedrosMeOnoma]

Wow that is amazing. Simple concept yet so mind-blowing 🤯🤯

[@jordanharrison3431]

Bro you have gotten so much more attention to detail since when I started watching about a year ago… keep it up !

[@R3LOADlikesgames]

Big Shields, Large Dragons, and Blocking Fire Attacks.. God I love the combination of those things.

[@the_chomper]

i really love the hidden switch idea. id love to see more of that in the future. maybe do secondary switches for different things as well.

[@danacoleman4007]

I am kind of at a loss for words. Truly amazing work!

[@clouddog2393]

Great diorama . One of your best and they're all excellent which tells you how good this one is .

[@markc.7984]

THANK YOU for everything you do, and for setting the tavern diagonally to the base.

[@Straswa]

Masterful work Boylei and ChickensTableCrafting!

[@jasonanderson8660]

Yeah, that fire looks great! Best I’ve seen. Nice job!

[@morgandusin2401]

That fire is incredible.

[@ifga16]

Every new diorama is better than the last. The dragon fire reminds me of the blast from a 16" naval gun. The colors are very accurate.

[@jaredboone8648]

Love the new handheld beauty shots. Really lets the details sink in

[@tannimkyraxx]

This was absolutely fantastic. I really love hiding the switch with the fence post.

[@flipshuman]

Looks amazing! Love the hidden switch

[@RealAndySkibba]

A slide switch would be fun for fence post too. Long pieces would be size on or just a but longer depending on switch location.

[@DJMarcO138]

Well done as usual!! Always a fun video - I really enjoy these collabs as a change of pace too!

[@sarahs.2913]

You never cease to keep upgrading the diorama game! It's my favorite piece of yours yet

[@wowzers94]

This is one of my favorite that you've done. Great job!

[@GwesleyKing]

I love your commentary! Also, I think it's great that you clean up your workstation every once in a while to keep things neat. Great video and great work!!

[@magicdicemanufacturing]

the diorama…the TAVERN & the fire breathing Dragon, the entire composition of all the pieces involved….this is another masterpiece! Amazing collaboration guys. 🤘🏻🤩🍻

[@paulocastro7884]

That's a masterpiece. Thank you for sharing all your creation process!

[@estherk2343]

from the thumbnail I was sure that there would be barely-there fishing line or something suspending the dragon in place - it's absolutely incredible how it is suspended by the fire it's breathing! and my mom does needle felting, I never even thought of using those needles for something like this. It turned out so amazing! I'm also *so* charmed by the fencepost switch, that's so cute.

[@sakura_witch8666]

This is definitely my favorite diorama of yours so far. The dragon truly looks like it's flying. Its so freaking cool!

[@oldman7452]

I love this piece. Dragons have always been a favorite creature of mine. The fire setup is very well thought out and executed.

[@marsgarage8217]

Beautiful work as always.

[@shredvenom]

You called it good... I called it friggin' amazing!!! This is one of your best ever!!!

[@cubancavalier3051]

The fire looks so cool!!!!!

[@DreamBigBuildSmall]

Awesome build! I learn so many new tricks watching your videos. This was a great collaboration with @ChickensTabletopCrafting. Now to head over & check out his channel. Happy Modeling, Cory

[@GTDScala]

Your creations literally give me goosebumps. Thank you for sharing with us.

[@aquarianage3953]

Phenomenal!Just,...phenomenal!

[@MadHatter-jm3cu]

holy wow!!! That dragon fire is so amazing. So was the whole process but that fire wow!!!

[@chriscooper654]

My compliments to both collaborators: an amazing creation / composition and story! And the surviving patrons of the tavern are going to have a great new story to wow all the noob adventurers with for years to come... Plus, no doubt, a truly amazing trophy to hang over the fireplace / bar!

[@vinayg9173]

MindBlowing!!!!!!!!!!

[@terecee1204]

Insanely amazing!!!😮
