This is the type of video you never think about looking for or see in the average hobby discourse and connect creation, but it's such foundational knowledge everyone could use
It took me a while to get one like this. All the algorithm wants to show is stripping paint. It is to me anyway fairly obvious how to. It's just the reassurance of other people's words. 😅
When I add new ones the next time I might do it, there could be a collection of 'pimiping out' different cabinet options. The experience is there since several years. Noted for the future. Thank you!
I bought a small attachment hose for the vacuum cleaner. A mini brush attachment comes on the hose. To prevent small parts from accidentally disappearing into the dust bag hell, put a woman's stocking between the connector and the hose as a protection. The fine dust then collects on the stocking and has to be cleaned from time to time.
Awesome video, mate. Not only a topic that is often ignored, but also great editing of the video. Plus, it's great to see you again, even if only on the screen. Keep up the great work!
More to come. Books are filled wit ideas, but also on topics others cover. There are always some tweaks, ideas and different perspectives to give another viewing angle, especially with a shipload of teaching experience. Stay tuned for more!

Hi Roman, Really love the videos you are making now, it's great get insight from an experienced painter like yourself! I'm not sure if it's just me, but I find it hard to hear you sometimes due to the background music being at a similar level to your voice.. if that's something you can look at going forward
Thanks very much for the feedback! Yes, this is the next issue I will look into and learn. Fine Sound Definition. Will do, will improve. Promised. Thanks a lot!
funny, i was having a conversation with a friend the other day about Last Light. And whether you would ever sell it and how much it would take for you to part with it. So I'm insanely curious what the amount is (if you have no qualms about revealing the sold price). We both said the only fitting place it should end up was Warhammer World for all to enjoy. It's a true piece of hobby history.
Many thanks for your kind words. I am planning on releasing a video about the emotional aspect I went through when I parted with it. Still need to finish the editing work. Well, it was really interesting. If you are interested in what I asked for it check back with my homepage/for sale, there is my cataloge that gives inisght. Unfortanetely Games Workshop was not interested in displaying it at Warhammer World. I asked them several times if they could imagine buying it for their museum :)
When dust really stick to miniatures I rinse them in water and use a big soft brush while under water to clean them. This has been my goto method. Takes time, but is very effective. Of course with stuff like diorama's or bases (with pigments for example) this might not be and option.
@@ROMANLAPPATMINIATUREART happy to share. Just to add, recently cleaned off all of my mini's that I wanted to display (because I bought a new cabinet). Had no issues with any of them. This ofcourse doesn't mean that this simple method is foolproof, but at least it seems to work most of the time. Also, most mini's aren't varnisned either.
I got a “data vac blower” to clean out the internal computer case / motherboard. Should be okay on miniatures and figures assuming everything is properly bonded/set and not loose.
The most effective way to keep your minis dust free is to store them in a display cabinet with a slightly higher atmospheric pressure than the rest of the room.
the tips were little redundant but literally anything to show that absolutely diorama off you could up load a 14 hour video of paint drying and if that baby was in the foreground id love every second of it
I have a question related to topic, mayby you and other guys can explain me something. I have a habit (mayby wrong) to rince my miniatures with water before continuing painting after long time, after intense drybrush or before varnishing to prevent dust, textile fibers and dry paint particles to be permanently attached to the miniature. After quick rincing (5-10 s) I shake off the excess water and let the miniatures dry. In 99% of the cases this metod works perfectly. Miniatures are clean and paintjob is not damaged. But somethimes (mayby with specyfic varnishes or washes) rincing miniatures with water causes some weird effects like dulling some colurs, making "misty" spots or "swelling" paint. Can someone explain me why that happens? I paint with acrylic paints and water should not ineract with them after they are dry. Thanks!
Well, I do not have much experiences with that as I usually do not rinse my miniatures during the paintjob. Maybe on some really long-time-not-touched projects, but then I would use the methods from the video. If something acts strange it could be with some types of varnish yes. All these Hobby acrylic paints have a wide variety of "secret" additions, like matte varnish, flow improver and stuff like that mixed in without explaining on the paint bottle. So yes, some paints could act strangely when touched up with water again. Very matte paints are very matte because they leave a rough surface (a smooth surface looks glossy) and if water touches rough surface it can easily rip something off. So far from my brain. Hope this helps. - Roman
He touched on it during the video that he doesn't recommend because you can't control the pressure but i had the same first thought as you, with distance you can control pressure but it also then isn't as controlled. I bet it's fine for most purposes.
Well, good question. As my job is being a full time miniature artist and teacher since almost two decades I am used to sell my art to make a living. When I made it I did not plan to sell it, back then it was all about the fascination of creation. I sold it about two years ago and we did not find the right moment for the pick up until now. Now that this approaches I am not feeling bad or sad, but I do have 'Saying Goodbye Feelings'. As I am doing a new 360° video of it I will take this chance to also speak about these goodbye feelings in it. Soon on this channel! Stay tuned!

Hi Roman, can u make a video of how to add led light to our cabinets like yours?

Makes brillant sense. And I know the beauty of your miniatures. They deserve nothing less.

Thank you for the wonderful feedback! Yes, learning tons on editing atm. Enjoying this medium a lot. Thank you for being part of this journey!
Thanks for sharing. This project was the first to show me I could use fun as a motivation for painting.
Happy to hear that. Well, I hope you continue with fun as motivation. I think there is no better one!
*sees that the Last Light sold to a private collector* It belongs in a museum!
Arrigato! Museums were not interested :/
I like very much the pacing of your video. Slow, clear, go right into the point.
Glad you liked it!

I got a “data vac blower” to clean out the internal computer case / motherboard. Should be okay on miniatures and figures assuming everything is properly bonded/set and not loose.
Yes, like I said in the video: they worl fine for mostly everything, but not fragile parts.
Hey Roman do you varnish or seal your pieces like this one? I'm curious to know if there is a risk to the paintjob when de-dusting!
No, not sealed or varnished. On such display pieces I want to be in control of shine and matte surfaces and usually they are not touched. So, no.
The most effective way to keep your minis dust free is to store them in a display cabinet with a slightly higher atmospheric pressure than the rest of the room.
True, but if you do not have this at hand or do not own one it helps to know how to dust them off :)
@@ROMANLAPPATMINIATUREART Yeah, your way is also much more energy-efficient. A constantly pressurized display cabinet would be a bit overkill. 😄
Very true :D
the tips were little redundant but literally anything to show that absolutely diorama off
you could up load a 14 hour video of paint drying and if that baby was in the foreground id love every second of it
Thanks for the feedback. Yes, this is all part of the process of saying goodbye to it and handing it over to its new owner, the collector, soon.

I don’t have an air brush as of yet, would a can of compressed air (often used for computers) work just as well, maybe from a distance?
He touched on it during the video that he doesn't recommend because you can't control the pressure but i had the same first thought as you, with distance you can control pressure but it also then isn't as controlled. I bet it's fine for most purposes.
Thank you! Yes, as being said works for most projects I think. Just the fragile ones I would not go for it.
