Work: Basing, Painting
Scale 75 mm, Kimera Models
This huge Troll was started during a private coaching session for explanation purpose for my student somewhere during 2022-2023. He was unfinished for a long time and he was a great reference of my workflwo in a certain stage for many more students. I recently finished him and enjoyed that beast a lot. It was really interesting tonpaint an intense dark scene and to keep a lot of areas in the dark while others boom in light.
Attached you can see photos on grey background, plus size comparision to a bottle of paint, plus a photo in the cabinet beside other figures to provide a true sense of how this big boy looks. You can find Work in Progress and explanation material on this miniature via my Patreon. Link below!

Keep on happy painting!

the close-ups have some beautiful nuances added to the strong brush strokes giving a malicious ambience to the pieceRoman LappatPLUS

Fine work once again Roman! I don't know why but I absolutely love the coloured vertical stripes on his clothimg. Bloodbowly Excellent. Appreciate the shot of it in the cabinet too! The big fella definitely stands out!Roman LappatPLUS
Thanks a lot, Colin. Really appreciate you taking the time writing such a kind comment. Happy you like the stripes. I was unsure in the beginning, but getting used to them in the meantime :)David KuehnPLUS
Sweet work, again, my friend. The colors capture the primeval and brutal nature of the sculpt. I particularly like the skin variabilty and the dark shadows. But: how you manage to paint such large things I cannot get my head around ;-) Talk soon.Roman LappatPLUS
Thank you, David. I am happy that this big fella is to your liking. Of course, the scale is not something you might ever consider :D ... It is mainly working with a bigger brush as the main difference, but yeah. Your work is too small for my old eyes! :D ... Thanks!Frédéric BISSEUX (MINOS)
J'aime beaucoup le contraste de la zone de la bouche très saturée (rouge, violet) avec tout le reste qui est très dé saturéRoman LappatPLUS
Merci! I am glad you enjoy my saturation and desaturation game here on this beast!Štěpán Tichý
Lately I've been looking for the greens in your pieces and it is fascinating, how much, green there is in it. I love how it all works together. It really works wonders, when the green is in the skull, base, shadows... And on the last photo, he really looks like a proper behemoth! Great piece.Roman LappatPLUS
Many thanks, Štěpán. Yes, green is defenetely one of my favourite tones I work with. In all nuances. Often I let one tone connect each materials and at the same time it sets everything in a specific environment and vision. Thank you for your good observations and kind words about my work!Might be Monsters

Love this one and the extreme light/dark - although it's not been painted to depict dappled sunlight, I get tthis impression - like he's in a dark thickly canopied forestRoman LappatPLUS
