The octopus mimicking a researcher is so clever and sinister. I love how intricate and sturdy your dioramas have become, especially with the use of light! They are true works of art and always worth waiting for.

It's always amazes me how you spend dozens of hours on your craft, show us like 0,00000001% of the process caring about keeping us entertained and then thank us for OUR time... My dude, we should be (and we actually are) thrilled by this awesome opportunity to see your work brought to us in such a relaxing manner. You make this world a really nice place to be. Huge fan of yours.

[@giulyanoviniciussanssilva2947]

As much as I also love Backrooms as they came to be, I'm not going to lie that this octopus was one of the best representations of that version of Backrooms that is livable, but I have to say that it was cool here because it truly appeals to the absurd, but with something that we are used to in our world only in an unnatural way and that's what Backrooms are for me, natural spaces but with that very alien out of context, in short this piece captures the best of both interpretations of Backrooms.

[@polkalamypekopeko2969]

Using the glue to add texture to the octopus was incredibly clever. This one really spooked me a bit! You're so skilled, well done!

[@E3_Kruger]

Was about to comment the same thing, I've never seen that technique before and it's really amazing!

[@BlackBeastWorkshop]

I completely agree that the backrooms themselves are best on their own without the need for many monsters that "roam" the areas. Amazing work as always, my only sadness is that I didn't you notice you uploaded until today

[@josiuwu]

[@Isaiah42069]

with the advent of 3d printing i find it amazing and refreshing to see you sculpt so much. great work!

[@Onsvaltti]

That's why I keep following guys like these! Love to see handmade sculptures now that people turn to 3D printing. NorthofteBorder (? Sorry if typos) makes nerdy sculptures by hand, I really like his videos, too. And his humor is so dry. 👌✨

[@DarkSketchbooks]

Nothing beats true sculpting like this....3d printing had become too commercial and cheaty....I'd watch videos like this all day long without getting bored

[@louie.lenard5795]

@@Onsvaltti just checked out his channel, thank you for the suggestion!

[@inoli3164]

My thoughts exactly, As someone who took ceramics class in school, I love this channel.

[@JustAnotherBuckyLover]

Wow, so much gatekeeping. Can we not recognise that good 3D printing (and creating the 3D model by hand from scratch) is an equally valid crafting skill, and appreciate both? I adore watching crafters like Thalasso creating their models using polymer clay (and there are plenty out there still doing so) but seriously, I'd challenge any one of you to create a decent model in 3D sculpting software and make it look good, let alone do so in no time at all. It can take weeks of designing, printing, redesigning, tweaking etc to get the working end result that looks good. This is no different from people being art snobs over digital art versus painting/drawing/etc. Or people being snobs over using 3D printing in prop making. Why can't we all just accept that people have talents in different areas and you couldn't do ANY of the things they do, and appreciate everyone's individual skills? And no, before anyone comes at me, I don't create 3D models so I have no skin in the game here. I have, however, tried modelling in 3D programs for software purposes and it takes far more time and skill than I have, that's for sure.

[@freddickery]

Thalasso Hobbyer, I normally don't comment on videos. But I just want to say that I genuinely appreciate all the work you produce. The effort that you put into each diorama and of course, your depictions of thalassophobia is so impressive. Its quite haunting yet alluring. I hope you will continue to produce more content and sculptures. P.S. I hope you will consider creating a Patreon account because I want to support you in any way that I can 🙂

As usual an awesome diorama! It was worth the waiting... Your crafts get better and better every time! Greetings my friend all the way from Lima, Perú! Keep up the wonderful crafts!

[@DannyStuart]

Thank you for putting in to words the thing that has been bothering me about 'the backrooms'. The scariness doesn't come from boring old 'fear of monsters' - it is from the familiar-yet-unfamiliar, the terrifying mundanity, the idea that it's so bland that it lurks just behind your consciousness at all times without you realising. The addition of monsters always cheapened that uniquely terrifying idea, and removed the thing that made it unique. That being said - your diorama is astounding and you continue to be one of the best model makers on KZbin, thanks for doing what you do!

[@whiterice6180]

水底に浮かび上がる巨大蛸の真っ黒な触手や、蛸の餌食となった人のボロボロの装具など細やかで巧みな恐怖の演出に畏怖を覚えながらも、 「おすしたべたい」や可愛いタコちゃんの落書きにホッコリしつつ楽しく拝見させていただきました。あっという間の11分間でした！👏👏👏👏👏

[@ArtofCrimms]

I love every small detail, but most of all, how thought-out your organization is when it comes to arranging the pieces. Every time, it feels like something won't fit, or some detail will be lost, and every time, everything falls into place and things are perfectly visible. Every minute was well spent. Lots of love from Mexico, Thalasso! Always a pleasure to watch your work!

[@わわわ-d4t]

やっぱたらそほびやさんが作る作品全部雰囲気好きすぎる

[@ggrinfan]

As others have commented, the level of artistry you have in the details is incredible. Hand sculpting your fantastic characters, instead of using other methods. Hand painting each of the pool tiles, instead of printing them. It's really inspiring. It's not to disparage other creators, it's simply to admire a technique based on the basic principles of art. These 11 minutes were short

[@chase9450]

you REALLY understood the main point of the backrooms. i think you choosing to make a simpler monster concept compared to your normal designs was a great idea, especially with the detail put into the monster and the building around it. beautiful work as always.

[@mumbo.x]

Dude your craftsmanship and skills are always amazing and it's just so cool to see the satisfying process. I get excited everytime you upload, seriously watching your vids help me fall asleep

[@gamerkingdom1442]

Daaam! I loved the added touch that you made the octopus GLOW! I never would have thought using epoxy resin like that!

[@Just1Nora]

Wow. Another amazing piece! It gives me chills! I usually think of octopuses as gentle and curious creatures that generally like humans, because that's what our research has shown, but perhaps one this size would be warped by being trapped alone in the liminal space room; plus he's gotta be getting hungry down there... I think what I find most appealing about the back rooms is that feeling that you can't shake; the feeling that you're just not quite alone even though you never actually see anyone else. The man who made the videos also made games, and if you have a PC I highly recommend that you go on Steam and check them out! I've watched a few KZbinrs do playthroughs of both the pool and the office ones and they really are great. I remember being alone with my mom and sister in our local church for cleaning or something a few times when I was growing up and even though we didn't attend a large church it still had a very eerie vibe when it was empty and the lights were off. My mom was also a nurse at one of the elementary schools, so the first and last few extra days of the school year my sister and I usually spent roaming the mostly empty school and helping teachers take down or put up classroom decorations for each year. I think that's part of the reason that the liminal spaces don't scare me is that as a child I spent time exploring places with the same feeling. I'm someone who is comfortable being alone. When I was very young I used to be a scaredy cat and attached to my older sister, but she would purposefully ditch me either to watch me panic and cry or sometimes just to get some time alone, so I got comfortable going off on my own. She was a bit mean spirited, but it ultimately helped me be a stronger person.

While octopus is pretty out of place for proper liminal space diorama, it suits your style so well. Another creepy masterpiece like poodles. And what is really scary - it is the thing that live in dark pool.

[@notfeedynotlazy]

Well, we all agree that a giant octupus walking (slithering?) down the halls of a liminal space wold not be proper. A giant octopus _lurking, unseen,_ on the depths of a creepy pool of the liminal space, however...

[@paveloleynikov4715]

@@notfeedynotlazy this is one hell of conceptual question. IMO, liminal space is still more about eeriness than creepyness.

[@notfeedynotlazy]

@@paveloleynikov4715 My point. I mean, the rooms and halls that _might_ or _might not_ be hiding something don't feel all that out of place with a pool that _might_ or _might not_ be hiding something. If every hall or pool for that matter were to hide a creepy monster, that would be a different kind of terror - just that this particular pool happens to _be_ hidding something, because if _none_ were to hide somethng, well, where's the fun there?

i’m so glad to see you make something from the pool rooms 🥺💕 it compliments your style and aesthetics completely. i agree that the best (and my favourite) version of the backrooms is that of the original post, empty space with no monsters, just dread; but adding the monsters and extra levels in as an interpretation of the source material is too much fun to pass up

[@ProfSir1]

Glad to see the backrooms still getting some love.

[@scarletknightreterns1893]

[@rockfish7777]

I agree with your stance on the crazy monsters. the appeal comes from the mystery of it all and when you give things names and add too much "lore" it takes away from that. the appeal is squandered. i love your diorama by the way

[@Dysiode]

I've never heard of The Backrooms but I really appreciate the vibe! I regularly have dreams about becoming lost or hiding in mazes of bathrooms! I think you're right, no monsters are needed, my dreams never have any, but I think it feels really amazing here. I love octopuses, and the technique for using Sculpey glue (I didn't know that was a thing!) for texture is really amazing! ありがとうございました

[@thessie]

Absolutely beautiful! You captured the 'unreal' and 'uncanny' geography of the Pool Rooms so well! I agree the monsters are not needed to make the BackRooms 'scary', it is the idea of a liminal and dead space that makes them so unnerving. A diorama without the monster and with just your beautiful architecture would be just as good. The monster is very scary too.

[@msbellebelle]

THANK YOU for that small rant about the things in the backrooms. the one thing i hate the most about the backrooms community nowadays is the sheer amount of "terrifying creatures" everyone tries to make for it, when the backrooms doesnt need that in the first place. a few creatures is fine, but id rather it be vague, and not that plentiful

[@bekahbabie]

Every inch of this diorama is insanely beautiful and detailed, but I think my favorite small detail you added were the holes in the middle of each of the suckers!! I’ve seen a couple people sculpt octopus/squid tentacles and they often just do the first step of making the suckers concave and don’t think to add the hole that actually allows the suckers to create suction. Without the little holes it looks more cartoonish, which obviously isn’t what you were going for. So it’s great that you included them!!!
