[@NorthoftheBorder]

Resin related misery making you question your life choices? Pfff... never heard such nonsense... P.S. Love the addition of a Pistol Shrimp breaking the sound barrier under the boat, causing the water to appear "cracked". Seriously next level planning!

i similarly thought the lobster had broken the sound barrier. under water I think it's a higher speed.

[@_Pikalika_]

I love the effect and bubbles the crack caused, from the right angle it looks like a cannonball shot missed the lobster and hit the water behind it. very interesting outcome

[@solid_jr]

I was thinking the same thing only maybe a harpoon shot. If you could've inserted a stray harpoon or spear, that Crack looks just like a stray shot.

[@the_once-and-future_king.]

Best way to avoid heat damage is to build up the resin in layers. Yes it'll take longer to complete due to the repeated curing time, but it goes a long way to preventing disaster.

[@PokeComa]

I think only issue with that is that you get lines between the layers of resin

[@lostsock9852]

slower cure resin?

[@the_once-and-future_king.]

@@PokeComa Should be barely noticeable if the proportion of pigment is the same in each batch.

[@the_once-and-future_king.]

@@lostsock9852 Still creates heat, just over a longer period.

[@artemikurski939]

@@PokeComa One of the ways it can be avoided is by mixing the dye with the resin itself and only adding hardener right before the pour

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Thanks for the shoutout man! Your weathering turned out super cool. Also I’m sure it will bring many of us comfort that resin goes wrong even for YOU sometimes 😂

[@sparky5778]

Loving the Wild West series. Very relaxing. Great to just sit and focus on something else. Love the work man!

[@milesdugar6920]

Top notch. You should definitely tap into the “van meter visitor”, it’s an pterosaur like creature that was spotted in Iowa 1903 in the mid west. the monster has a great wings and a horn that glows a blinding light and was said to fly around and would reside in the mines. Reports say it loves to perch on top of roof tops, I think it would fit perfectly into your Wild West aesthetic.

[@patrikhjorth3291]

Okay, now I absolutely _need_ to see a Chupacabra mermaid in one of your future videos. You can't just say things like that and not expect to have to follow through. Fantastic diorama, the boat looks so real I could almost smell the smoke from the engine. Or maybe that's just my computer overheating, I dunno.

[@douglasbadger9049]

Absolutely love this one - particularly how you have the two worlds, that of the above-water boat, and beneath-water horror of the monster. Personally I think the resin crack looks like a sonic pulse in the water, almost as though the crustacean-monster can suddenly flick its tail or claws to stun its prey, like a mantis shrimp

[@cu5tard80]

I saw the thumbnail for this and remembered the old video “ey get that crawfish outta there”

[@stingermarine85]

Hey bro I really appreciate you continuing on with the project and putting out the video even though it didn't go perfect and had some imperfections. This really helps me feel like its okay if projects don't go right all the time and not to give up on it even when things go wrong. This is a testament to having the right mentality when Hobbying, its about fun, and it's awesome to see you didn't lose that even mindset when you make videos of your work for hundreds of thousands of people to see. You continue to inspire my man.

[@benbenavides5636]

Great job sticking with it and staying positive, you're right though sometimes things happen and we have to make the best of it, tiny suggestion...while you're building/painting could you show longer clips of the process, not necessarily narrate - just illustrate. It's fun to watch and sometimes you can pick things up just by watching other peoples process. Thanks, and again great job recovering your latest build!

[@Hjerte_Verke]

That's not the style of this channel--it's made as fast as possible, edited for brevity with as many quick edits and chops, never giving you a nice view of what's going on. Not a tutorial channel, it just shows what he does and it's lightning quick. Annoying eh?

[@CMonster0125]

I've talked to resin manufacturers when doing large pours. They recommended using thicker acrylic sheets and staggered pours to avoid cracking and other incidents, or using lower temperature-curing resin (which takes ages to set and harden). It takes much longer, but the results are usually worth it.

[@Vegvysyr]

If you imagine the crack in the resin as water displacement from a gunshot, it's actually quite cool!

[@jacobhesse981]

Loved watching your recovery from the unfortunate mishaps! The end product looked great! You've gotta give us the Chupacabra-Mermaid now that you've mentioned it. Maybe a diorama of one lurking under the docks of a small fishing hut?

[@CajunCraftastrophe]

Nice save at the end, C! Man, that's the scary thing about resin, there's no 'Control Z!' Now this diorama will always have a good story to go with it. I have seen a few videos on KZbin where they are putting their deep resin pours into an ice chest (Yes, with ice, which of course can't come into contact with the resin as you well know). I've also seen an old refrigerator used for that. The diorama came out beautiful. Excellent work and excellent ingenuity all at the 11th hour!

[@hobbyistsjourney1346]

I really appreciate you telling us channels to find new techniques at. There are so many channels out there it's hard to find more specialized techniques

[@matthewlane5562]

I can't imagine the frustration at coming back to find resin disasters like that. As far as the scale goes, a lot of the older model kits (this one originates in the 1950s) the scale was often quite loose and sometimes based on what would fit in the box! That probably explains the giants that come with this model.

[@thegoods1r694]

just found this channel, as a fisherman this sort of scenario has crossed my mind. no lobsters unfortunately, but seeing a shark in the mass of fish you're wading through has a certain psychological effect on you! personally i think the diorama is still awesome. its not that the accident happened, its that you were still able to make it turn out as good as it did

Chupacabra mermaid???? You have got to make a diorama with that for your Wild West

[@dominiqhatch8427]

I love how this turned out, im always excited to see more monster hunter/cowboy builds, but you should try adding river beds, and such under the monster, i think it would be a little detail that would make the diorama seem more like a complete location plucked straight from the world, and would make it feel like these monsters are a lot closer to whoever is on top than they probably would like to be

[@Crafterman535]

[@Amanda-xw5hm]

Yes i agree man you deserve a like

[@inkadinkadoodle]

Your dioramas always have a weird, creepy sense of realism that I absolutely love! The lobster-boat size ratio is realistic, and the boat's an appropriate vessel for deep-sea fishing. You make it easy to believe that these lurking, big-ass creatures could be out there! :) However, it's my understanding that live lobsters aren't red. This giant lobster is definitely a deep-sea and probably prehistoric creature, and you've got skills for aging and antiquing things. A denizen of the deep such as a giant lobster surely would look its age -- dark, barnacled, like living stone. This diorama is not a fail! I thank you for it and for the lessons you share, when things don't go right. It's all good!

[@KnarbMakes]

Man that crack is a bummer. But you did a great job recovering from it. It turned out very great in the end. Love all the details on the boat

[@nerdyraptor]

Honestly one of the best resin project saves I've seen

[@anniossecretplace6665]

I don't know if you will see this comment, but I'd really recommend using some kind of base layer to give kind of a bottom to the river so it looks like the lobster has more of a habitat and not just is laying around in open water. Besides that, I absolutely love the aesthetic of your build. The utilization of the mid exploration era soliders and modernist era of technology really gives the build a unique vibe. All around a great video to watch!

[@prabalaggarwal3229]

Been waiting 2 weeks for the diorama and the humor lolol😂

[@oisinholz]

I think this video is great! I fell like there are many creators out there that would have scrapped a video like this, or heck even the entire project. Kudos for sticking with it, problem solving, and - most importantly - uploading the video for all of us viewers. I think its important for us to see that, as you said, mistakes happen. Its nice to know that even someone as skilled as Mr. Boylei has crafting mishaps!

Top tier commentary from the crew, 5/5 stars, love it.

[@thornheartred]

I think you did a great job saving this piece. I do have one suggestion, if you add a few water mines to the surface of the water above the crack it could give the impression the crack is an explosion. You could even drill out some of the resin above it and have one sinking then refill with more uv resin or water effects to make it look like it’s sinking.

[@missjddrage1111]

I feel that the mishap of the water settling is minute, even tho it does take away from the scenery in it's grandeur. The overall project is FAR FROM FAILURE SIR. This build is one of my favorites so far. 💐🔥

[@garzilla7123]

you have to try resin at least once more. I thought you said Chupacabra Mermaids , but I wasn't sure I heard it right so I had to go back watch that part again with closed caption on and yup that is what it was. Now that is a twisted idea, now you have to come up with them in another build soon, I have to see some Chupacabra Mermaids, I really have to see them. Crack or not, even with the resin mishaps it still came out awesome. You are totally a pro at this stuff because you fixed 99.99% of the mishaps without making them look like you had to fix them.

[@monsterpartywars2018]

I actually really like how the resin came out in the end - I think the various flaws give it an imperfect character that fits in really well with the subject matter, like film grain or all the scratches on an old movie reel. As for the crack…clearly, the lobster has some Mantis Shrimp genes in it from a wayward evolutionary dalliance, and that’s a shockwave from its supersonic clawpunch. Great work!
