This week, I created one of my most requested monsters so far! I mentioned Chupacabra Mermaids in a video about a year ago and finally decided to bring the spooky creatures to life with the help of Hero Forge.

I like that the revolver he has his focus on is pointed directly between it's eyes, yet the one he is not focused on is drooping and pointed more towards the chest. Such a subtle yet amazing detail.

Having the mermaids attached to each other just barely to make a web is super cool!!!! It really helps suspend them in water without fishing line or other method. Such a cool mini project

It would have make the water look more shallow, but would adding terrain to the bottom of the jar have helped with hiding the ridges? Hindsight being 20/20 and all of that... These WIW dioramas are always so much fun to watch, and hear the little stories behind the scenes.

you should make a 1 to 1 scale 'Leo's journal' and write all the stuff that he's done. also, you should make a diorama of leo riding a wild imaginary west giant sea turtle, because that wold just be plain cool.

I think you've hit the jackpot with the Imaginary Wild West. I enjoy it as a setting immensely. Another cryptic-like creature you could use in the future would be the Thunderbird, lots of potential for over-zealous bandits who get their socks rocked when they try to steal its eggs or feathers or whatever. Always love these dioramas!

I’m not sure if you’ve been to/heard of the Superstition Mountains in AZ. Legend has it that there’s buried “lost Dutchman’s” gold somewhere in the mountains. There’s also a natural phenomenon where the sun casts a shadow on the rocks that looks like a giant cougar. A diorama with treasure hunters coming face to face with what is in fact an actual giant cougar seems like a perfect addition to the W.I.W!!

@lionessoftor4139 22 күн бұрын

Or he could use the Black 4.0 to make a Giant Shadow Cougar. Since shadow people and big black cats are also types of cryptid that could be fun to work with.
