One of the most iconic pieces. GW really should have gotten it for Warhammer world. I think the Last Light showed a lot of people a new level of emotion and storytelling in miniature art.

[@ROMANLAPPATMINIATUREART]

I am grateful and feel humbled that you say so. Sadly it never happened. Well, maybe one day, never say never!

The fact that Games Workshop didnt jump at the chance to have that piece in their museum is a crime. This is hands down the greatest warhammer piece I have ever seen.

I was sad too. Thank you!

[@andrewanderson1988]

I 100% agree

[@NoxusGr01]

Not gonna lie, the work looks very impressive and honor to the artist for the effort and time, but to me the composition looks a bit sketchy in the details and also the color scheme a bit dull and flat... also not a fan of the goopy strings. Obviously these are just my two cents on a total personal point of view, I really love the idea, storytelling and the executions of many aspects of this tremendous piece of art, so big props to Roman!

[@ROMANLAPPATMINIATUREART]

@@NoxusGr01 thank you! I agree with some aspects and would do things different today. Back then in 2013 I was still in the heat of learning and exploring. In the meantime I know exactly what you mean. Thanks for your honesty and the props! Appreciated.

[@mattcurr9931]

10K euro was a bargain price for this, especially considering some of your "small" diorama pieces are ~4K. And i'm in absolute love with your new Escher piece, the dimensionality of the background is absolutely insane, truly jaw dropping. the parallax effect you get with these small frames is beautiful, and truly inspirational as I've had ideas to do the same for a year now (just gotta clear out a massive backlog of various board game pieces, then I never want to buy a new board game again and just concentrate on art pieces).

It takes a special person to have the foresight to create such a piece. There are a million stories wrapped up in one large story in this piece.

[@ROMANLAPPATMINIATUREART]

Many thanks for your kind compliment! Very much appreciated!

[@irafair3015]

Incredible. I'm truly amazed at not only what you created physically but also the range of emotion and commitment involved from conception to completion to the eventual parting and going of separate ways. I am deeply moved by the vicarious experience. It's like experiencing the sadness of losing a 'loved one' yet happy to have known them and being a witness to the joy they bring. Incredible work. Thank you.

[@ROMANLAPPATMINIATUREART]

Many thanks for such a feedback. What you describe is involved in this project. It belangt to my past ... I am happy I was able to explain it properly. Thank you!

[@NitroModelsAndComics]

I recall seeing this piece some years before I began painting miniatures. I am an automotive modeler firstly. Having started in the early 70's when my Dad bought me a kit for us to put together as Father and Son. I stayed with it all through my life. When I saw miniatures becoming popular and the impressive painting techniques I wanted to challenge myself and break new ground. Gone were the highly polished lacquer paint jobs. Now the rust and the dust are where I dwell. I never abandoned cars and bikes. They are just another part of what I do as a hobby. But seeing "The Last Light" and knowing it was made with devotion and deep commitment was satisfying. Now have met you in a sense I see how deeply connected it is to your life. I have sold a few cars in the past, and boxing them up is always emotional. I recall all I put into the car. All the hours detailing and buffing the paint. The research and the planning. I feel it.

[@ROMANLAPPATMINIATUREART]

Hey, thanks for your patience with my answer. I did not see your beautiful words until now. Wow. Thank you! I appreciate the time you took to think into it and understand the connection to the cars. Makes absolutely sense. There are shards of our hearts in that and I am glad you can relate. Once again thank you for your kind words :)

[@Stone2D3D]

This is a true work of art! I hope that, one day, this masterpiece finds itself presented in a museum of Miniature Art instead of being in the hands/house/cabinet of a private collector. Roman, to me you are the Rembrandt van Rijn of miniature/diorama art! Thank you for this inspiring video! Cheers, Rob

[@ROMANLAPPATMINIATUREART]

Thank you for your beautiful words, Rob!

[@KayosWONER]

but hes not the only artist, all the models were designed by the sculptors at games workshop, so to call him Rembrandt is a bit of a stretch

[@Wijkert]

Love what is in the background for this video. I never realized that a talking head video would be so much more chill to watch if people would film them outside.

[@ROMANLAPPATMINIATUREART]

Yeah, I am often in nature. I like to be there more instead of in front of a computer. Usually when I am at my workbench I like to work miniatures, not speak about them and I might do more videos like this. It is different :) Thank you for the feedback!

[@IHiggs]

This looks like it couldve been the climax of a movie moment, the final team of the Tyranid invasion of Baal, all brothers falling except the one Sanguinary Guard holding the line like Sanguinius did at the Eternity Gate

This came out very close to the time when I re-entered the hobby, it's not the type of thing you ever forget!

[@stuartlittledrowning4965]

My interpretation on the your beautiful art is more grimdark. Space marines constantly idealise these heroic last stands takeing down as many foes as possible. However against the tyranids it simply does.not.matter. The tyranids clearly have no end to their numbers and the Marines are clearly being dragged down under their weight. The losses they inflicted are also meaningless as the hive fleet will simply reabsorb the biomass of their dead alongside the space marines dead. Humanity struggles and rages but its all meaningless, the human sacrifices means nothing and the casualtys they inflicted against the swarm will mean nothing. Pure distilled grimdarkness and i love it! Thank you.

As a fellow diorama builder and lover this is a beautiful build and amazing story telling both video and diorama wise! I absolutely love it I wish I had more time to build dioramas but I make them for my YT channel so need to cut corners like there’s no tomorrow 😅 (builds need to be done in a week then editing 😅). Telling stories and showing lore through dioramas is such and interesting thing to me and I have to say I’ve not sold any of my builds as I know it’s hard to let go! Keep going and keep building these beautiful captures of a story in the 3D form! And again just incredible piece of art 👌

[@ROMANLAPPATMINIATUREART]

Yes, it was a hard and interesting moment, giving it away. I see your case. Well, for me I do not play the KZbin game like KZbin wants me too, means I do not have video every week. I could not do it without losing the fun in creation. Hats off! Thank you for your kind words!

[@RIGMiniatures]

@@ROMANLAPPATMINIATUREART it’s strange I definitely enjoy the … pressure… 😅 of building quickly but I do feel like I need more time sometimes. The longest build I did was about 4 weeks which was the Horus heresy box that came out last year. I used every model in the box to make the Istvaan V drop site massacre.

Absolutely fantastic, amazing, mind-blowing piece of artwork! This is on par with the great works of the classical masters in museums. Stunning, captivating with so much to tell everywhere you look at it! You can indeed see that you poured your blood, sweat, tears and even your soul into this work. I can imagine that you parted with it with no small amount of reluctance. Absolutely brilliant work sir.

Hello from Saigon. I have been a WH40K fan for the majority part of my life. This video of your compelled me to simply express my appreciation on your work. The weight of emotion and the investment you have placed into your works resonate deeply in me for that is the same way I approach my other passion, that is photography.

[@McLoven-vm1ck]

A large pencil or paint of this scene would be impressive enough but this 3D depiction is fantastic. I can only imagine how impressive it has to be with some care and detail put into it's cabinets background and lighting; has to look amazing.

[@ROMANLAPPATMINIATUREART]

Arrigato 😍

[@Cozworth1007]

Ollanius pius facing off against horus would be a fantastic diorama to see, especially with the upcoming release of the final book in the siege of terra series coming out soon.

[@ROMANLAPPATMINIATUREART]

There are so many possible dioramas involved in the lore of 30k and 40k. Infinite options.
