Roman Lappat updates Augsburg workshop page with sold-out classes

Roman Lappat’s Augsburg workshop page now reads like a hot ticket board, with sold-out classes already filling the 2026 calendar and a clear split between private coaching, small-group masterclasses and larger weekend workshops. For miniature painters, the immediate takeaway is practical: the page shows exactly where a one-on-one correction session makes sense, where a tightly focused three- to five-person masterclass will pay off, and where a bigger class is built for broader technique work.

The strongest match-ups are easy to read from the lineup. The sold-out Speedpainting masterclass and Object Source Light masterclass fit painters chasing faster tabletop results and stronger display lighting, while the All about Metal group masterclass is aimed at anyone trying to get metallics to behave cleanly across armor, weapons and trims. The Abandoned Car Diorama group masterclass points to scenic painters and conversion-minded hobbyists who want texture, weathering and storytelling in one project. The Beginner Workshop, scheduled for July 10 to July 12 and already sold out, is not limited to first-timers either. Roman Lappat describes it as open to every person at every age interested in figure painting, which makes it a safer entry point for painters who want a structured reset rather than a simple paint-along.

The trip to Augsburg looks most justified for painters who want direct feedback. Roman Lappat says he has taught miniature painting seminars since 2009, has run almost 200 Beginner Workshops, more than 100 special group workshops, over 200 private coaching sessions and more than 5,000 students in total. That kind of volume matters in a coaching setting, because it suggests a teacher used to spotting the same surface problems, edge transitions and color placement mistakes across skill levels. His own background also carries weight: he says he studied to become a teacher for schools, and his advanced workshop page says he also studied art and art history.

The format details reinforce that this is a working studio rather than a static biography. Roman Lappat Studio in Augsburg lists the Advanced Workshop at €250 for 2.5 days in English, and the workshop pages show classes available in both English and German. A review page for the one-day Speedpainting Masterclass notes 22 students in that session, which gives painters a useful sense of scale before booking. Roman Lappat has also won awards at worldwide miniature events, including Best of Show awards and a Golden Demon Slayer Sword, so the demand now showing on the page is backed by a teacher who has been building this system for years. The sold-out tags make the point plainly: if you want a seat in Augsburg, the best classes are disappearing fast.
