In this video Roman Lappat explains to you how he got inspired to create the ultimate Warhammer 40.000 diorama, called "the Last Light". Roman speaks about the inspiration by Games Workshop and about his success with the diroama entering it at Golden Demon Germany 2013 where he won one of the highly praised Slayerswords. He will give you an emotional view behind the curtains of this epic diorama, shows you brand new, exclusive footage of this epic battle between Blood Angels Space Marines vs. Tyranids that let's every tabletop and wargaming heart jump higher, tells you how it feels to sell it to a collector, teaches you about storytelling diorama compositions and just brings out his love for Space Marines yet again. SPACE MARINE! Time to get inspired and use your tabletop wargaming miniatures to create miniature art.

    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!

    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).

    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.

    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.

I have an idea for making the scene on Istvan 5 where Fullgrim meets Ferus in the middle of the heat of battle, surrounded by their armies, inspired by your Last Light.

    I remember seeing pictures of Last Light for the first time and being blown away. In the last couple months I've convinced friends of mine to join me in this wonderful hobby of ours. Painting their first miniatures. One said "I think it would be really fulfilling to do full dioramas of scenes and scenarios". Last Light was the first thing I showed him, and he was just as awestruck as I was the first time I saw it.

    Letting things go is hard and at the same time one of the most liberating things to do. Especially when you have put so much effort and time into it. But the experience of creating it and all the emotions stay with you and theses are forever. Best piece ever to me, because it set a new standard of storytelling and complexity. I wasn’t in the hobby at that time, but when I returned in late 2021 after a more than 20 years hiatus, and did my catching up on things, this one stood out.

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!
