Good job! Since all the rooms are circular, perhaps the passages should have ended with a gentle concave-curved surface, instead of straight edges.

Wyloch just casually reminding us all why he's a legend in the community.

The warning at the start made me more nervous than the actual animation.

That Elder Brain room is soooo good. Didn't even realize the brain was 3D printed at first.

This is basically what I pictured in the book "Exile " (book 2 in the Dark elf trilogy by R.A .Salvatore) when Drizzt is captured by the Illithids and finally breaks free and destroys the "Hivemind" this is stunning.

Man, the blue and pink/purple color scheme is so eye catching and pleasing; the way that it softly blends is spooky good. Amazing work.

That intro was amazing. Got me really pumped up!! And the rest....an absolute masterpiece. I am inspired. I found it really engaging to hear the lore as you went through. I think my favourite room was the plaza with the terraced pools. This whole set has such a great sense of cohesion and atmosphere with so many interesting details. You have outdone yourself! 11/10

There is a direct line from KZfaq randomly recommending your videos to me ages ago, to watching Critical Role, to me DMing my first DnD game this Saturday. And for that, I thank you. Now to watch this. Which I know will be awesome.

How do I like this video more? Its so perfect. ITS JUST SO PERFECT.

I'm envious of your ability to incorporate lighting into your builds. That said, I probably would've used rounder, more organic stones for the floors and give 'em a coat of gloss to emphasis the dampness of the place. I'd also get rid of the wall blocks in the captive pit entirely. I can already hear the players trying to argue that they can just easily climb out. That eating theater though... It's one thing to know that you're going to die for other's entertainment fighting in a gladiatorial match. It's another thing to know that you're nothing more than cattle to be slaughtered and eaten. But knowing that you'll be eaten alive in front of an audience as a piece of performance art is on a whole other level and perfectly encapsulates just how alien, both physically and morally, the mind flayers really are.

This lair looks so cool! Never actually seen a mindflayer lair outside of the book pictures

The one that really made me think was the eating theater--brilliant concept and fantastic, grisly, tone-setting execution.

You have legitimately crafted the greatest Underdark terrain in the game.

This is my favorite crafting video period. We're shown how to make and compose the set pieces, the voice over is on point, the editing is smooth, AND we learn about the lore. Please sir, continue.

U cant imagine how my whole family enjoyed watching u reading and building. An honest thank u for that awesome 20 minutes

No better way to start the day than with a new Wyloch video. Can't wait to see how the brain came out!

This is one of the coolest craft + lore videos ive ever seen, really some next level stuff! Not only does it give some immersive backround info for building, it gives ideas on how to roleplay/ story-tell in the areas themself.

I've watched all of your vids and I think this is one of your best! The lore and narration were so engaging! Great format for us crafters that already know the basics. Keep it up!

I've recently acquired The Illithiad, a AD&D source book. Its absolutely invaluable for the dm who wants to run a mind flayer campaign. These builds are so inspiring for me, and I'll definitely be using these ideas in my Illithid campaign. Thanks for all your hard work.

You have reached the pinnacle of my ideal craft. Easy to make, thematic, creative use of inexpensive items, modularity, and easy to play on and see the areas for players sitting at a table....Bravo my friend.

OK, this has to be among my favorites of yours, the mix of the intro, the lore and the craft itself was fantastic! Also, I get the feeling that those guys are not good people...

Dude, I'm so excited to have you back and moreso that you're enjoying yourself! Getting into 40k narrative lately. Keep inspiring

This is easily in my top 10 favorite builds you've done. The Laboratory is my favorite room. Very well constructed my friend. I love how lore is being presented while the construction is going on in the video.

Oh man. That was amazing. Loved the lore mixed with crafting.

This is one step beyond, Wyloch. Fantastic!

I have no idea what he's talking about but I watched the entire video and love the terrain 😂 Beautiful job!

Wow, this is one of the most impressive scratch builds iv ever seen for D&D. Absolutely awesome video.

Holy crap Wyloch - You've knocked it right out of the park with this one! Absolutely awesome build (And now I'm going to have to make one :) )

It never ceases to amaze me, how amazing your terrain looks with sometimes the simplest techniques. The birthing pods are as good a "pond" tutorial as you could ask and made of a whopping two materials. Nice!

I started out watching and subscribing to a number of tabletop crafting channels but as time went on, I began to recognize my favorites as well as the ones that I gradually lost interest in. Now I watch one channel, Wyloch's channel. And I do so because of quality content like this. Seriously, great job man. The way you laid out the mind flayer colony, both physically and descriptively was flawless. Keep it up!

Wow, just wow amazing, organic shapes that are modular are difficult to pull off. Home run 10/10

I really loved this. The build and the lore narration. You may not agree, but this is what peak craft performance looks like.

You have done some remarkable and imaginative projects. For me, this is in your top 3. Not all because of the build, but the format. The explaining, the lore...almost like story telling. REALLY enjoyed this Wyloch! More like this...

My husband and I watch all of your videos. Really glad to see you're back. The break definitely did you good, you look so healthy! Hope you're doing well and back for a while. Really enjoyed the lore talk over the build. Makes a nice change I'd love to watch more like it.

This combination of crafting inspiration by showcasing great stuff and how you make it on the one hand and insight into lore and lair functions is amazing, especially for a non-D&D RPG player like me!Many, many thanks and love to see more of such videos. Its a new entertaining and most potent weapon in your Armory. Wyloch!

A really awesome video. I loved the narration. I haven't played D&D for about 35 or so years, but I love to see the current way people are using mini's and terrain. Probably would have made the game more fun back then had we done that. Your theme of the Mind Flayers brings back many memories as well. I do remember occasionally coming across one. Thank you for taking the time to make this video and inspiring our creativity.

Wow! I am very impressed! Fantastic job ! I am glad to see you are back!

My players would not likely survive this dungeon, but I would happily try this as a one-shot. Inspired and ready to build! Thanks Wyloch.

This video showcases why you are one of the crafting OGs. Well done.

IMHO, The pool in the center of that temple is especially great.

I wish I lived next door to this guy and joined his games. thanks for doing what you do, so entertaining

So refreshing and enjoyable to view Wyloch videos. They are spurred by his passion for crafting and are not driven or controlled by sponsors or finance. Thank you!

Great work sir. The themed edging with the teal coloured hot glue and plastic fork tines are a really nice touch. I love that you didn't feel forced into adding a grid to these pieces either, certainly adds to the aesthetic.

wow, this is an impressive amount of work for just one gaming session.

I love the way you intermix the storytelling with the crafting. This was very enjoyable.

Love how you add lore to already an epic build

I love the color choices! Very bright but alien. Very interesting terrain!

That's just perfect. Keep being awesome, man. It's good to have you back!

That paved floor is amazing ! I also love the lore explanations !

I really enjoy getting to hear the lore specific to each room's aspect of the Lair! Wonderful video!

This is super cool. The elder brain, while seemingly quick to make is a great build (nice touch with the lights). Also a big fan of the resin work in the various rooms...really brings out the alienness of the mind flayer city.

That's fantastic! Serious Baldur's Gate vibes. I love the bold colour scheme, it really makes it stand out and adds to the alien feel of the set.

12:30 To add extra horrors lol, there is a non fragrance incense cone you can buy, comes in a pack, in the place where piranhas love according to Finding Nemo, lol (I'm a piranha I live in the Amazon) That lit in the center would send fog down especially if you carved a path or bowl lip to each well. But beautiful job and very good effect by painting it. ALSO, I AM NEW TO DND and I love binge-watching your videos, I'm catching up as I'm also a new subscriber and I thumbs up ever video I watch! I absolutely love the Lore as you build, and if there are builds you have but haven't down lore to them I'd love it if you got those out and showed them off too with a store of the lore. I love the fact you are a lot like me, granted you have to be creative and think out of the box my kind of thinking btw, but I absolutely agree and love your work, you can, we can, have really cool table top game boards without blowing the bank. My daughter and I have just started to get into DnD, both of us love crafts and creative work, I had always wanted to play but growing up never knew anyone who did. Course being raised Christian, parents were against buying it, lol, but as I have told my kids, as I am a real Christian, that's someone who doesn't throw sin and the Bible in your face and tell you your going to hell, those people absolutely upset me. No, it's okay to have an open mind and keep your faith. My God isn't stupid, he knows I'm playing a game and that I'm not seriously trying to speak to the dead for example. To my other Christians out there, get a grip, unless you are so weak in your faith, but yeah, not sure how I got onto that but, anyway thanks 👍❤️.

Absolutely fantastic. Those textured walls etc with hot glue are mind blowing. Here they are blue but imagine in red the effect of flesh that would make. Excellent sir. All the best.

This made me so happy! It was your underdark terrain video that got me started in crafting and equally loved this!

This might be one the best modelling/crafts videos I've ever seen. Putting lore on the audio is a great idea. I'd love if someone did the same thing with WH40K videos (as I love both lore and painting videos).

Dude, I'm only half way through this video and I have made a list of 10 different things I want to make! The content on this video alone will keep me occupied for a month. Wicked techniques and super cool doo-dads that I want to try of my own. Thank you Wyloch.

Wow Bill, you have out done yourself. Looks fantastic. Your players will love it!

Love your new format. Listening to the lore is really inspiring not only for modeling but also game making.

This rejuvenated Wyloch is throwing out some new awesome stuff. #mindblown Great Job man. Never cease to amaze and inspire

This is going to sound crazy but your videos have been a great source of comfort for me actually. The Tomb of Horrors series takes me back to 1980-84 when I did most of my playing. I sure hope you took enough time off. Take care of yourself the way you would take care of someone else.

I very much enjoyed this. I don't often make use of the Underdark or mindflayers, but I have in the past. This was a great take on their architecture and aesthetic.

Once you realize that some of the spooky plants in the lab are penne, it's hard to unsee.

It is new style, it is different, it is amazing! Love that naration!

Man I love this. I have a friend that is not long for this world and this fantastic setup has formed the basis for one of the set pieces I am doing for his dnd sessions. I'm loving making it and I can't wait to populate it with a one shot of glorious encounters. Thank you very much for your inspiring ideas.

by far your best vod... And that is saying A LOT!!!! Well done.

You did such an amazing paint job on this one, and I looooove also the texturing of those walls! Super pretty build! Congrats!

Beautiful! I know model builders are particular about the paint, but per ounce your paying a stupid amount to buy the army paints. I realize not everyone has gone to art school and know how to mix paint to create colors, I do get it. My mother loved those Christmas villages, she liked to buy the buildings and paint them herself. She chose the old cheep acrylic paint like Apple Barrel craft paint. I don't know how long Apple Barrel has been around but 25 years of all the blue hairs and craft moms cant go wrong. Per ounce on sale you can go crazy with color. I find it a fun challenge to buy or craft miniatures for as little money as possible, here I thought I was the only person who used garbage to make dungeon scenery. Thank you for sharing!❤‍🔥

Woaw. The music at the start (when you start talking face cam) really hit me hard. Because Critical Role used this music for the character intro during their first campaing, and the first campaing also started in the underdark, towards a mindflayer city. So yeah, everything there transported me back in there. Nice effect :)

Wonderful. So glad to have you back creating such treasures.

Superb real-stuff counterpart to the Illithid scenery in A Well-Known Video Game (and probably another one soon, judging by the trailer). Congratulations!

This was amazing! One of the best videos I've seen in regards to building terrain for a D&D campaign!

So glad to see the vids again. Remember to continue to take care of yourself!

Amazing as always. Keep up the good work, I'm here whenever you feel like sharing!

Hi Wyloch! I really liked this video and the different approach. Showing how you built and then placed the set up for the game, while narrating the lore... excellent! I don't know how much work this made you do, but I hope there are more videos like this in the future. Well done!!

This is a great format! Adding the lore to a great crafting video is an inspired idea! It improves the lore and crafting sides both! Keep this format! Its the best ive seen!

I love this, happy you're making regular content again!

Awesome pieces of terrain as usual 👍 I was pleasantly surprised by this video because I usually watch crafting videos to gain some more knowledge about techniques to improve my craft but with this one I liked the narrative and lore of the mind flayers. I wouldn’t mind having more of your videos be like this one in the future.

I always enjoyed your under dark videos. This one tops them all! Thank you!!

I love how the shot used to show the scope of the dungeon looks like a map right our of the old Baldur's Gate series. Hit a lovely bit of nostalgia while getting to see your awesome work on one of my favorite monsters. Oh, and that model converted from the Eldar warlock was slick! Going to have to dig through the bits box to see if I have the pieces to do one of my own.

So glad to see you back at Bill! Looks like you just needed a slight hiatus to Rejuvenate your crafting greatness. Love the colors, in the pure creativeness you’ve come up with for your storytelling .

I love this style of video! Some great background lore on the whole dungeon and its functions. Great to listen to while watching how you made it! Absolutely would be down for more of these kind of videos

Yes, yes, yes! I loved the video's format, the lore reading was great and the build was fantastic! Thank you!

What a great episode! So good to have you back :)

Ive always really enjoyed the colours of your underdark terrain!

Super craft and video format...liked the lore narration. Happy to see you back.

good to have you back bro, if your ever near syracuse NY your welcome to come join our game night!

HOOOOOOLLY SMOKES! i found you on reddit, and dang this is so cool! the use of LED's as well as the color scheme is quite inspiring!

Love the added lore! Not that I'm the best reference, I love all the videos you make.

Most inspiring crafting video there's been in awhile

that's awesome, thanks

this was wicked! your narration was fantastically haunting as well. great video!

I am not at all sure why anyone would give this video a thumbs-down. This is great stuff.

Great video! Live the lore concept! It added a unique experience with fantastic video production quality

I'm really happy you're back to making vids. I hope that some day when life and the world in general calm the hell down, you can do some more Grimdark (and other OPR) games. I really enjoyed those and they're what got me to play and support OPR. I'm hooked on their games and 3d printed minis now. :D

This video was a lot of fun to watch, and your execution here is amazing. You are really coming into your own with that airbrush! Really enjoying watching your evolution as a crafter on here and continually riding your coat tails to something greater. 🤣

This is amazing. I’m so glad you got out of that rut a while back and can now do amazing stuff like this. You’re a legend.

This video was great! I really enjoyed the lore as you showed footage of yourself building.

I really appreciate your attention to detail as usual. The Wizkids’ premium Elder Brain set has the brain and a few stalactites and stalagmites. Your’s has everything you need in better form and I am assuming was constructed for less than $39.99...

Oh my goodness this was such a joy to watch. Really really loved it.
