- I went to Poland last month and while I was there I had the pleasure of meeting the legends at Den of Imagination. So much talent and creativity on display. It's inspiring.

Thank you for coming to our studio 🥰 it was a pure pleasure to meet you!
The pleasure was all mine. Thank you for being so gentle.
So much talent, fantastic tour!
Is there any kind of community online for amateur painters? Maybe im just a boomer but i cant seem to find anything
Hey guys, would you be able to release a paint guide for those Angels of Defiance? They're incredible and I would love to know the paint scheme. Thanks!
@@james5289 the artist just updated me with this color scheme:
charred brown (game color) > ushabti bone (citadel) > flayed one flesh (citadel) > dead white (game color)
and
Matt black (army painter) > neutral (model color) > light grey (model color) > dead white (game color)
I always love seeing artists being able to make a living off of their art.
I love art living off being able to artists always
Yes me2
I don't think it is their art. But they bring other peoples vision to life, and that can be rewarding. One young woman said she applied what she learned at the shop to her own art.
I've worked in an art shop doing mural size copies of other artists original work. It got stressful. A good manager makes the difference. This looks like a fun place to work. Hopefully they get decent money.
That huge magnetized diorama is batshit crazy. Love it.

Thank you so much! We always do our best :D
@@denofimagination I had originally seen the start of the diorama on one of your Vlogs on your channel, it is coming along amazingly!
It’s gonna look great on the table and in my living room. Just got the test model pictures the other day. It’s going to look amazing.
@@DeliciousCornbread thank you! stay tuned because the diorama is going smoothly to the end and it will deffinitely have an update on our social media!
Living in the UK have worked with loads of Poles and they are all a great bunch of people with great work ethics and Poland looks a beautiful country !
🥰 you are welcome to come to Poland and see the studio as well as the polish beautiful cities yourself!
I second this comment. Can also confirm it's a beautiful country in person. Great history too if that's your thing.
Torun is by far one of the prettiest cities, along with Krakow and maybe Gdansk. Many of the others are ... ahem... not quite so attractive. Everywhere there is a sense of open space that you don’t have in many western cities. Also you don’t get the ‘clone town’ phenomenon of the UK and Germany where city centres are dominated by a small clique of retail chains.
Holy Moly, I never expected commission painting to be this huge!
I'm pretty sure they're the largest miniature commission painting studio in the world
@josh@@notnubilous3804 Actually we are! But not all of our commissions are this big. We do all sorts of stuff from one single miniature to whole dioramas :) you can check out more on our gallery: denofimagination.com/gallery
We do our best!
Wow. I’ve heard you mention these guys for ages. I didn’t realise how big they were or what they could produce. Really cool.
I honestly thought it was going to be 4 guys in a basement 😂
@@BleachCowboy2016 I honestly thought they were in the UK not Poland :P
@@BleachCowboy2016 That's how it began now it's a big painting studio :D
it's not the size. it's the quality 🤌
This video was an absolute pleasure to watch. Proper artists for sure. I'll have to order something from them!
SO glad you liked it! Always do our best to make our painting the best quality.
We will happily paint your miniatures 😊 remember that the quote is for free, write to us: doiassist@gmail.com
I love Den of Imagination! High quality and great communication. Would recommend them over and over again.
Thank you :)
It is so interesting to see a studio not only this large but also with this many female artists.
I’m sure they hire who they can. It’s just a fact of nature that women are better at repetitive detail work.
@@sirrathersplendid4825 A fact of nature, jesus man...

Chicks are good at that kind of work. For starters there is no heavy lifting. And they have a kind of patience for details. At the bronze monument foundry I worked at girls always did the detailed wax work. The boys did the metal grinding, and welding, and pouring 100 pound crucibles of 2000 degrees molten metal. The girls had it easy. The wax room was air conditioned. And when I shucked oysters for a living the girls were really fast at that, and they made more money because we got payed piece work, by the gallon.
welcome to the 2000's, several men of this thread
Toruń! I love the town! I am from Sweden and have been visiting Toruń several times since the 90:ies while riding motorcycle through Europe. I was happy to learn that there is such a great studio there. I have always been interested in model painting and gaming.
Never thought that I would see winters over here in Poland
I think you need to do more videos like this, it was great.
Wow. DEN is basically the Adeptus Custodes of miniature painting studios. The Best of the Best!
thank you!
Den of Imagination are just top notch, got some awesome stuff going on in there, i love watching talent artists do their thing so this video was fantastic!! Poland is absolutely beautiful, and the people are just lovely aswell.
Thank you so much for those kind words 😳
This is so crazy... these people are ridiculously talented.
So cool to see behind the scenes of their studio, thanks Winters for taking us “behind the curtain”!
Poland never ceases to be an epic place.
Edit - Winters - "That's the Death Reaper, that's my baby!!!"
Me - (glances guiltily at the half assembled Death Reaper sitting in its box on my desk)
This stuff is incredible. I love that diorama- idea. Thanks for sharing.
I would never have dreamt that there would be a business this large doing commission painting. Very nice to see so many people employed in the hobby, looks like a dream job.
I know a few Polish people, never realised Poland was such a beautiful looking country.
This is a great behind the scenes!! Love seeing business like that thrive!
I love how much of a child you are. Very entertaining to watch!
The highlights on that painter's hair "carolina" doing the deathwing were really well done. Good nmm.
Winters Attenborough observing commission painters in their natural habitat.
:)
..... drooling big time.... I'm a commission painter myself, but this is just another scale. Thank you so much winters and crew, this was great to see behind the scenes ❤️
I spotted a brush licker! Impressive stuff! Thank you.
that magnetization thing is wild, I never saw that one before so at least more than one person
SAME!
oooh, this is really cool!! 🙂
Amazing thanks for sharing this video 👍🍻
3rd generation American here. My family came from this region. This was such a pleasure to view!
Very interesting to see you visiting this huge studio! Looks like a well oiled machine with a lot of motivated and happy creative people!
Torun is such a lovely town! Now I have one more reason to visit again!
Thank you for letting us hear the air compressor
Dude this is otherworldly
Great video. Loved the beginning tour of the town. I loved the magnet idea. The painters are amazing artists. Thank you!
I've currently got a commission ongoing with DoI...... REALLY excited to see how it turns out, was great getting this behind-the-scenes look at the company 👍
Very impressive studio and the people seem to be very happy and motivated to work there to showcase their talents! Amazing!
Actually we are happy to work here! I mean it can sound like a bull hit but it is a pleasure to be working in this place
I've used these folks, can't recommend them enough. Absolutely awesome experience!
This is so Great Love from USA. And you all are our brothers ....great hobby and History.
Wow. That was a feel-good video if there ever was one. Made me feel all warm and fuzzy ❤️
What a great company. Atmosphere seemed so chilled and relaxed. I live in Australia but would definitely commission through Den of Imagination if I was in Europe or the UK! Their work is exceptional.
You should check them out. Assuming worldwide postage can be covered, their work looks incredible..... You wouldn't be disappointed 😎
we ship worldwide 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
A 40k travel blog... I didn't know how much I needed this in my life. You should take Brother Koorland with you next time for cameos.
GREAT video winters, a real eye opener! thanks! :)
Such cool people. Very down to earth and wonderful painting skills 🤙🏻
Lots of beatiful ladies working there...
good video,was really nice to see what lot of my bases come from.
HOLY MOLY! I always imagined like a small studio. This is a whole FACTORY! Impressive!!
What amazing painting skills are being exhibited by the artists at "Den of Imagination..." I am really awed. Fantastic work, people!! You have earned my admiration.
This video is incredible! Amazing look in to a painting studio, looks like a great place to be young and have a summer job.
They really are some of the best
I've used DoI a couple of times off the back of your promo Winters, stunning work, well recommended. Good to see their set up, great tour video, thanks.
Polish people are so lovely ❤
I must say. Good video with winters as allways. And Den of Imagination look like to be well organized and doing realy well in painting. Was a blast.
Winters in the wild! a delight of a video. Gods I miss Poland sometimes.
Great video, but you really did Maria dirty with that thumbnail 😆
I'm sure she'll be happy to see it!
Incredible video! These folks are all so kind, insanely talented, and seem to genuinely enjoy thier jobs. Wicked awesome!
😲🤯I had no idea there was such a thing as a magnetic base. That is the most awesomest from tabletop to diorama way of doing it that I've ever seen! Thanks for sharing all of this with us. 🙂
Incredible! What a great studio and great artists ❤👍
Thank you so, so much 💕
Thank you for this video. I could have used more info from the staff and shots of the studio, and fewer comments and shots of the host (winters). But, I would not have seen any of this if you had not produced this video, so thank you again.
Loved this! Dream job, I'm moving to Poland!
That table looks so badass!
Monster props to these guys and gals, all of it is awesome.
🥰
Magnetic displays and matching individual bases is just one of the countless commissions available here. 😉
Figure painting, gaming table tops, modular table tops, dioramas, model assembly and customization. Want to give grandpa/grandma, or dad/mom, or brother/sister, or significant others, or friends and beautifully crafted model of their favorite car/truck, or boat, plane, train, castle, bridge, whatever... that’s what I do. Just one vet at home (DV W/O benefits) trying to make a living. 😉🇺🇸👍🇺🇸
But hey, these guys look awesome. I would love to reach their level some day.
🇺🇸 Semper Fi 🇺🇸
Remind me to go to Poland on Holiday.
If you ever come to Poland don't forget to visit our studio!
So much talent!!
These guys were working on a Dark Eldar army before life got in the way of my funding. Really great work. Beautiful Greens.
I see my shoulder patch is still on the wall where I traded it to them a couple years ago! Great studio, really nice people.
Absolutely Fantastic .. :)
I like poles because they like freedom.
When winters said say hello people, dude on the left knew what to do!
Classy
