#DonQuixote #Mimic #Diorama
I was recently sent a message on instagram describing a dream in which I made a diorama based on Don Quixote. In the dream, the windmill was actually a ferocious monster! I loved the idea and decided to make the dream a reality! This diorama is chock full of character. I hope you enjoy!

This is wonderful, and captures the spirit of Miguel de Cervantes' "Don Quixote" perfectly! THIS is exactly how I imagined the titular character saw the windmill in his mind. Your diorama does justice to what many consider to be the first modern novel. Great job, Boylei!

Isnt it called "Don Quijote"?

@ibandorronsoro8860 5 ай бұрын

@@Iandepian.The name is Spanish written by a Spanish Man. Americans, English and other people pronounce his name like it has a J because they don’t know how to pronounce it.

@CristinaAlmarazLopez 5 ай бұрын

@ibandorronsoro8860 It is actually pronounced with a J (I'm Spanish), it's just that that back when the book was written the J phonem was written with the letter X. In modern Spanish you will often see it spelt as Don Quijote but if you get an original copy of the text you will see this is the case for every word that nowadays would be spelt with a J (which makes reading the book even more diffucult on top of the old Spanish being kinda different to begin with, I had to read the whole thing like this in high school)

It's the same thing with Mexico, in Spanish it's pronounce like MéJico even though it keeps the old spelling

Amazing job, Boylei! I bet this is exactly what Don Quixote saw. Also my sister used to call him Donkey Oatey which is even funnier because she was in high school when she thought this. If anyone wants to hear a great summery of this story without having to read it (because while good it is a LOT) Red from Overly Sarcastic Productions does a great job, informative and hilarious.

One of the best lines I've ever read in literature came from Don Quixote. The Don was facing off against some thugs. "Advance! Come on! Molest me as far as ye are able, for soon ye shall reap the rewards of your insolence and folly!" I need to read it again. It's been years.

Almost exactly! In my dream it had a giant tongue coming out of a window and the windmill was formed out of concrete (dream logic). It was also from a railroad set (dream logic). The scarecrow arms were exactly as they were in my dream and the general shape of it too. He did a good job!

Another awesome build! But if you excuse me to nitpick a bit, you could have easily included this in your Wild Imaginary West, if you instead of supernatural windmill, made it so that the monster was a large hermitcrab who used windmill as its shell. Not sure if that makes a whole lot of sense, but it makes for an interesting imagery, and you are making a fantasy diorama anyway AND the theme of cowboy Sancho Panza fighting a monster windmill sounds awesome.
