Two Armies Fight Over Dinosaur Bones
#Diorama #Craft #Dinosaur
This week, I made a diorama of two armies battling over the unearthed skeleton of a giant T-Rex. The two armies are mercenary groups hired by competing trophy hunters to protect and secure the dinosaur bones for themselves.

I find it kinda funny to think that, in the imaginary wild west, it would probably just be a normal day finding this considering what's alive at the time.
Dude! Such a cool build! Now I want to see more fossil gathering! Maybe an excavation in a swamp pulling out the skeleton of a mammoth? Or on a beach with a plesiosaur skeleton and a monster hidden in the waves? Would love to see some structures like tents or scaffolding worked in.
The plesiosaur would looks so cool! Maybe the small head sticking out on the sand and the rest of the massive body obscured under the water
Tar pit!
@@___.__._.Ayla._.__.___ lol I wonder what inspired you there (looking at your profile pic)
Maybe a living evolved dinosaur inspired by a sertain western movie
The "hidden monster" idea fits with many of his other dioramas. Love it!
The fact that the skeleton is both ginormous and fully articulated tells a terrifying story. These bones are recent. Fossilised maybe, but probably not in the MYA range as contemporary dinosaur fossils. These would likely be in the TYA range, akin to Pleistocene megafauna. Land of the Lost perhaps? Speaking of such animals, can we get some interactions with prehistoric animals and cryptids? Such as a Columbian mammoth herd being stalked by a dragon or suitably horrifying beast? The world you've created is amazing, and the more I see of it the more I want to tie my boots up and explore it! Excellent work as usual and I eagerly await whatever comes next!
oh my god,your right
Ummmmm What?
Who said it's a fossil? This is boylei we're talking about
@@fenixmeaney6170 3:39 that would be Boylei
@@olly123451 yeah, fair enough.
GREAT DIORAMA and story. The BONE-WARS actually are historical, but not very bloody Two rival paleontologist COPE and MARSH competed over many fossil finds between 1877 an 1892 in what was the real wild west.
Would love to see a western scene at a beach front, if possible.. Maybe a haven of sorts where trades happen? Either way, love the work and the story you're building! Keep it up, Boylei :)
A beach with smugglers and their boat, having been surprised by a sheriff and deputies, in a tense standoff. However, both groups will soon be surprised by some monstrosity.
@@herrakaarme The island they're on isn't actually an island; it's a giant crab who just gotten woken up by the fighting and isn't happy.
A port town maybe!!
This guitar music at the end, what’s it called?
The little conversations between the minis are one of my favorite parts of tour build videos. 😂
So much action going on in this one, my eyes wander around looking for all the different stories going on. Well done!
The conversation between the minis was funny.😂
Boylei's Weird West - A most interesting timeline! I've loved watching this world get bigger and more fleshed out with every diorama.
Only seen the title and this video already looks lit.
Easily one of the best crafting and diorama channels on YT.
Yo I’m so excited that he did my request!
The lighting is so good right?!
Your builds are awesome as ever. But those 'speech bubbles/commentarty' between the characters, when placing the figures are out of this world! Love it!
Looks fantastic. You should do a last stand style diorama. Have one small army defending something while another massive army approaches.
I’ll do you one better - a tiny, under-equipped group hauling a gargantuan fossil while several much larger armies try and steal the catch. The only reason the small group has been able to defend is because the main forces of the larger armies are busy keeping each other in check. It’d be a big undertaking but a pretty epic diorama
@@quakxy_dukx that's a great idea. Like a caravan caught out in the open, having to defend from all sides.
I really want to write a homebrew dnd setting based around this universe you have made. Mechs and all. I absolutely love it!
Your Fantasy Wild West would make an awesome show. You've made an amazing world come to life with your descriptions and dioramas.
I love the dialogue between them and awesome kit to use for the build.
The dialogue was hysterical
"I said NDA not DNA!"
Great build, and great sense of humor. Love it! Thank you Boylei!!!
Your dioramas never cease to amaze, maybe next in the Wild West series you could make some sort of standoff between some classic Wild West gunslingers In the middle of town . Another great video! Thanks
This diorama gave me big "Dragon Teeth" by Michael Crichton vibes. It's a great book about the Bone Wars that was published posthumously in Crichton's name.
I didn't think about the book, but I also had a feel like the Bone Wars between Cope and Marsh got very literal in this Wild Imaginary West
Dino, yay!!!! This turned out awesome! Kind of the "Bone Wars" from real life brought to the Wild Imaginary West!
We need a tour of all these dioramas ! Love the channel
love the dialogue when ya put in the figures, always great
Another brilliant build. You are full of ideas and never seem to be short of things to build. Your commentary and sense of humour makes it even more addictive to watch. Brilliant man! Keep them coming.
The really incredible thing is that this happened. Othniel Charles Marsh and Edward Drinker Cope, previous friends and paleontological colleagues, had a terrible falling out and started the Bone Wars, a cold war where they each tried to discredit and name more genera than the other. Later on, it got ruthless and they hired mercenaries to defend their excavation sites and sabotage the other’s. That’s actually where modern American paleontology can trace most of its most notable discoveries such as Triceratops, Allosaurus, Diplodocus, and Stegosaurus.
This is amazing, and I was invested in their little conversation. Shame they had to fight over DNA.
Truly one of my favorite channels on KZhead. Just a man doing what he loves in a very well executed format. Just so incredibly entertaining and full of knowledge. Love this build!
I am so glad you're doing more with dinosaurs! I'm actually aspiring to go to Texas Tech for a paleontology major. This is something that really brings me happiness. I didn't have a favorite of your videos until now, more WIW dinos, please!
The Bone wars is an interesting topic of a major paleontology race in the late 1800s that is very similar to what you mentioned.
good luck on that study. :)
All the best to you! A very cool aspiration!
An army camp for one of these mercenary groups would be a cool build.
I loved the little dialogue between the hired guns towards the end. Really got me chuckling, bravo.
I love these types of builds. It appeals to my creative mind. The broken ribs and partially buried head and foot, you nailed it. So cool
Beautiful! I love this! And I learned to never judge a paint job before it's done. This looks great!
I love watching videos from channels like this juxtaposed to ones from places, like north of the border, where one puts a lot of care, time and effort into the craft, and the other is just haphazardly brute force in its way through until they get something that’s good enough
As someone who wanted to be a Paleontologist when he was young, this build pleases me greatly.
I absolutely love your videos ❤❤
I am truly hooked in this little world you've made. Every addition is so exciting to see!
Hell yeah its the "Bone Wars" something that actually happened in our world with the rivalry of paleontologist Othniel Charles Marsh and Edward Drinker Cope. Its so freaking awesome
"Needs more dinosaurs." Fact. I really appreciate this concept.
I have spent my day Binge watching these wild imaginary west videos and I am loving them and I can't wait to see more. If I may suggest a future build, maybe a dark forrest area with a pack of large Wolves tracking down a gang of outlaws.
Your art is amazing! Love your work.
Like this one. There actually where bone wars in the late 1800's between two paleontologists who indulged in some underhanded methods.
Even when I'm on a trip to Asia, I NEVER miss your videos. Great job!
I absolutely love the overall feel and color palette here. That said, the red vs yellow thing has me thinking of team Mario vs. team Wario, and that only makes me enjoy it more. What a fun and simple project this week!
Another great diorama. Just love watching these come together as the techniques are useful for my own 1:72 dios.👍👍
I'm loving the expansive stories you also create!
I love the depth. Looks so good keep it up
This remind me of the real life “Bone Wars” where a couple of archeologists had a mini feud with each other.
Another VERY inspired dio, you're so creative...and talented!
Thank you patrons for helping him give us commoners awesome builds!!!
The diorama "Two Armies Fight Over Dinosaur Bones" is truly amazing. The level of detail and creativity put into it is remarkable. The portrayal of the battle scene is so lifelike and the use of different materials to create the different elements is impressive. It's a true masterpiece and a testament to the artist's talent and skill.
excellent artistic skills and even better story telling. I hope this gets made into a movie
This one is now my favorite. Amazing work. Your videos continue to inspire me to do this.
I agree we need to see more dinosaurs on this channel. With this one I like how the soldiers were positioned so there was no clear winner. Each had the upper hand in different spots
Wow The archeology series is great
YES. Your content is so unique and cool wish for more longer more in depth builds it’s honestly so relaxing !!
Dude, this diorama is truly magnificent and all of your videos just spark my imagination and make me want to do things like u do. Once again absolutely amazing job!
Best part about this is there really was a period of time in the 1800's called "The Bone Wars", where there was a heated rivalry and competition for dinosaur bones between two palaeontologists former friends Othniel Charles Marsh and Edward Drinker Cope.
It's absolutely hilarious that this is actually somewhat historically accurate. It's only a slight escalation from the actual Bone Wars between Edward Drinker Cope and Othniel Charles Marsh
A detail that would’ve taken this to the next level (on top of incredible obviously) for me would be if there was an archaeologist *in the rib cage* continuing to excavate the fossils. Incredible work as always, I love that dinosaurs in the WIW are even bigger than they are in real life and hope to see more 💕💕
Amazing project as always 👍😁, love the concept of fossil hunting in your alternate universe..I especially loved the Convo between the two armies lol 😂
The pre fight conversation between armies 😂 This is great
Wow, what a great build, the terrain and paint were perfect. I loved the backstory as usual, really brings the world to life.
Love your stuff, my friend. I’m always learning from your videos to apply to my own hobby. I greatly appreciate you. - Rick, USMC.
Love your hobby mat, love your dinosaur, love your terrain, and really love the clever and funny dialogue between the trophy hunters near the end. LOVE THIS BUILD!!! A-OK ❤❤
This little world never ceases to amaze me. Have you considered making something along the lines of a "giant cattle ranch". As in a regular ranch that holds giant cattle...?
Finally. Dinosaur Dioramas. I recently finished my biggest Dinosaur Diorama yet. I often watch your Videos while building and sculpting and painting :) I am so impressed that you pump out a nice fine Diorama every week. Hell! :D
I thought this was gonna be a really weird one… BUT IT IS PROBABLY ONE OF MY FAVORITE DIORAMAS FROM YOU BOYLEI!!!!! This is so FREAKING original I love it to DEATH!!!! Keep this up dude!!! 😁
Love the video bro keep it up it never fails to impress ❤️
as a kind of sequel to this, I would love to see some mercenaries fighting over a downed UFO.
I was confused about the diorama until you explained to lore. Now I'm totally here for it.
LOVE this build! Out of curiosity, was the idea for fighting over dinosaur bones inspired by the real Bone Wars in the late 1800s American West?
Such an amazing artist.
The dialogue between the characters in these dioramas always cracks me up.
Outstanding! Love the Dino addition to the imaginary Wild West!
Finally, DINOSAURS!!!! As soon as I can afford it I will want to make dioramas centered on dinosaurs and you don't know how much your videos will help me, thanks
I love these army fighting dioramas so much.
You should do another underwater monster diorama. Glowing eyes, sharp teeth and everything. Perhaps a cross between a wendigo and an eel.
I absolutely love the banter between figures!
It would be amazing if he could combine all his diorama to make a massive one that tells a story of the world I would ĺove to see that
As always, another imaginative and well executed diorama! Thanks for sharing
Glad to see you've corrected your ways. Keep the dinosaurs coming!
When I first saw the mounted guy next to the dinosaur I thought it must have been huge, my next thought was how I hope these guys manage to find a living dinosaur at some point because that would be way too cool! Great build!
Mr Boylei, you are correct. More dinosaurs are always good. I'd really like an anime series or something in your West, it's fantastic and the world needs more.
He just makes stories like in point 25 seconds for every diorama
A mueseum of alternate history that housed all of these dioramas would be soo cool.
I'm glad for that comment on scale. This dino would be a MASSIVE bastard in life. We're talking about a T-rex on a scale larger than most sauropods.
I have seen meny t-rex used craftings , but these is the BEST 😮🎉
Very cool build and story. Reminds me of Michael Crightons book “dragon teeth”. Very cool nostalgia seeing the images from that book come to life here
Always an honor! 😌🤙🏼
Love the little conversations
DINOSAURS! This might be one of my favorites. I just love all these little things you are able to create. Its amazing
I really like this diorama, and am still chuckling over the conversation between the two private armies. The irony is that this diorama isn't quite as imaginary as some might think. There was a period of time known as the "Bone Wars" when there was a literal gold rush on fossils -- and the opposing groups (usually pitting Monsieur Cope against Monsieur Marsh) would more than rarely employ trickery, bribery, dynamite, and gunshots in an attempt to "capture" their stony prey.
Masterful work! You continue to impress, Boylei!
A high noon quick draw at Mos Eisley would be very cool. Another great diorama!
The banter between the soldiers at the end was hilarious
Your statement is indeed correct, everything could use more dinosaurs. And now this is my favorite WIW build with the dinosaurs and worldbuilding and that dialogue. Love it!
Think this has to be one of my favourites so far, I like how it could have been a real situation
NGL i love the little miniature converation bits a lot.
I just started watching your vids and I've fallen in love with the attention to detail. I love how everyone holding a gun is pointing at an enemy without just aimlessly holding a gun. I think it makes it so much more livelier. Great work man. You work is so beautiful.
This grass and plants part is giving me fine dining plating vibe haha. Exquisite!
Now I think you're just making things up.... another very cool build. Thanks for sharing your work.
So very cool. My daughter loves dinosaurs and couldn't wait to watch this with me. She begged me to ask you to do more dinosaurs, please. We love your work.
