Not me crying from this absolutely stunning art and bittersweet story. It's been an emotional day. But really, your art is the most incredible artwork I have ever seem, and I honestly believe you don't get paid enough for the things you create. But seeing you create is so inspiring. Thank you so much

His story, has ended. "Rest well, my guardian". "You have completed your task, and honored the memory of an old man with your final sacrifice". "I shall see you soon, old friend." These words echoed slightly, in the King's Tomb, as his ghostly image slowly faded. One final beam of sunlight shown through the shattered remains of the once grand window, faintly illuminating the gem on the guardians head. One may have said it looked like the comforting hand of an old friend.

You made me cry for a fictional shark, and had me mesmerised again by your meticulous process. You are one talented person. And your guardian series are always a delight to see. ❤❤❤

WHY is this guardian's pure little face bringing me such peace and happiness. he looks so calm and gentle. this is so amazing i want to cry.

Literally bawling my eyes out over here over a hunk of tin foil and clay. The heart and emotion you put into your work is stunning

when you felt guilty adding harpoons to the guardian's body, i definitely felt the same way. also! i never thought i would ever cry while watching someone make a diorama, this is definitely a first 😭 i was in awe but the story behind really broke me. bittersweet endings are so hard to accept, although this is very beautiful. can't express properly how much this piece moved me but just know that we all appreciate your hard work and sheer skill. thank you for making this! 💖

In my opinion, these sorts of videos should be why UKposts exists. I would be feel very privileged if I had one of your works of art in my home.

This diorama is one of the most beautiful I've ever seen. I haven't cried in ages but immediately started tearing up when I saw this, didn't know I needed to cry that much. It broke my heart to hear you aren't getting paid enough, I hope more people recognize your beautiful creations.

"My earnings are not enough." Dude, you charge orders of magnitude below what anyone would expect. You are one of the most incredible artists I have ever seen on UKposts. You made Meg art, the director responded. You made Subnautica art, the developers commissioned you. You're a storyteller, your original pieces like this are creative original, thought-provoking, emotional, and leave any observer wanting more, expanding it in their mind, saddened that both the story ends here in terms *of* the art, and *in* the art. They're even strangely relatable. Not to mention the countless other virtues required to be an artist like you, not to mention your artistic integrity. If ever I could afford it, I would gladly pay tens of thousands for one of these masterpieces. Stop being so damn humble! P.S. Yes people wish they you could post more videos, but no-one is mad. People (mostly) understand that quality work takes time, and this isn't mass-produced and clickbaity like some other dioramas on UKposts. And fuck anyone who actually cares about the realism of the stained glass.

3:19 体に刺さってるのが槍とか武器なんだって分かって心が痛くなったけど、『守護者』だからそれでもずっと守るべきもののために生きてるんだって思うとすごくかっこいいし、目を閉じてる表情が穏やかに見えて、数えきれないくらいの年月を超えてきた生物って感じが最高

I have cried and will continue crying for so long. This is simply beautiful. The undying loyalty and love makes my heart hurt in such an exquisitely beautiful and painful way. If I had the money to buy this, I would. Never sell yourself short. Your art is worth so much. You are truly an artist. I would love to read this story. A short one, maybe. How you tell such stories in this way is phenomenal. Thank you for sharing this with us. I’m gonna go eat while still crying. ❤️

I don’t usually cry when I see a diorama, but the story was so sweet and sad 🥺 I am happy to wait for new videos as well. The quality of your work takes time and the skill and attention to detail are worth the wait! Thank you for your creativity, and hard work!

Why Thallasso Hobbyer is such a good youtuber: 1. Takes over 3 months making a diorama 2. Remakes models that had a mistake, no matter how frustrating it may be 3. Willing to go the extra mile to make every intricate detail to make his diorama look realistic 4. Breaks some part of his diorama to give it a ruined vibe, even if it meant destroying hours or even days worth of work 5. Does all of this for us to enjoy

Also I just love the serene expression on the guardian's face. It's so peaceful and full of love. The story is so sweet.

I'm struck by the peace and serenity captured on the guardians face. I couldn't look away from it. You are an incredibly skilled person and have my deepest respect.

no diorama has touched me like this one has. when the realization hit from the sword being placed onto the box and it became clear you were making a coffin and not a treasure chest like i originally assumed from the thumbnail, my heart squeezed. coupled with the fact that the coffin has a gem matching the guardian, and the story at the end? this is the first diorama video to make me tear up due to the raw emotion i was made to feel. not only is the craftsmanship gorgeous and incredibly admirable, but the way this art tells such a bittersweet story, all from a scene frozen in time, is absolutely phenomenal. i think if this piece was in my home i'd get nothing done because i'd stare at it all day and get lost in the details and story of it all. beautifully done, thank you for sharing this with us 🩵

Dude, it’s been to long. Although I understand that your art takes time. I love, LOVE your Guardians series. Incredible. 👏🏼

In a world where creators are turning to more and more low-skill, easy approaches like 3D printing, it's good to see someone taking more traditional steps. Well done.

There doesn’t need to be realism in these pieces. Your detail is enough to bring tears from beauty to my eyes. Every bit about this is amazing. No need to apologize for stained glass windows. They’re gorgeous.

もう涙がポロポロ零れるのですよ……なんて愛しい子なのでしょう…素敵でした

Many, many centuries had passed since the very last of the lord’s kin had visited, the once grand halls of the cathedral had become worn down and water from the surrounding lake had engulfed the grand building allowing for the lord’s guardian to enter. He had watched over the small forgotten building for ages warding off trespassers as he was told by his great friend before he passed. As time passed the place had turned from a holy site to a haunted place. Many people went to hunt the guardian having entirely forgotten his noble deeds and purpose. He was spurned and shunned from the city he used to watch over. As he lay by his lord’s coffin he remembers him, his greatest friend and king. He remembered when they both met for the first time, the boy’s friend had fallen into the lake and he dove in to save her. His friend was an orphan the daughter of a blacksmith who had died years back and since then she had been poor. The king, merely a prince then of noble birth dove in to the lake to save a poor girl of far less importance. That was the moment he knew that this boy was destined to be a great and kind king. He took the children upon his back and took them back to the city and in the boys hands was a crown with a ruby embedded within, a symbol of the guardian’s favor. Ever since then the boy visited the lake and so too did the guardian go to meet him and they became close. Soon however the peaceful times had changed and war had broken out with a kingdom overseas. The prince had fought in this war alongside the guardian with a sword given to him by his best friend who had inherited her fathers smithing talent. The two became known as the greatest warriors of the kingdom and together they drove back the enemy but just as all seemed well, disaster struck. The old king had become gravely ill and soon the kingdom fell into disarray but the prince took it upon him to continue to lead his father’s army and soon victory was theirs. But as the kingdom was without a king a court was to be held to decide upon the next ruler. They all looked to the great prince to take the crown for who else would be worthy to take the crown. And soon the Prince had become the King and eventually found love with his greatest friend. As more years passed by the King grew older and had children but none carried the purity of heart nor the will to lead as he did. More and more time passed until the king had succumbed to disease as his father did. And as he spoke his last words to the guardian by the lake just as he used to when he was young he told him “I oblige you, old friend look after the people as I longer can for I trust you with all my heart with all I have done”. And so the guardian remains no matter how lonely it gets without his king. Beside the kings coffin upon which his blade rests and the ruby from his crown lie embedded. Absolutely loved this piece, very inspiring to make stories off of I’ll probably draw something based off of this

I legit cried over this. I never thought I would be so emotional over a clay shark.

That was beautiful.

最初から最後まで作り手の愛を感じる、とても素敵な作品でした。感動をありがとうございます。これからも応援しています。

I love when artists remind us that they make mistakes and struggle too. It makes me feel better knowing I'm not the only one struggling when creating.

ほんとに綺麗...短いのに色々な背景を考えさせられる物語めちゃくちゃ泣ける..

I'm crying. I feel so much for him. You created such an expressive story frozen at the last moment of it. It's beautiful and so sad and I feel a great respect to this old wounded dying guardian. He waited for so long. He was devoted to the end of it. It hurt me to see him slowly leaving this world but it's purifying my soul. Thank you very much!

This guy makes absolute masterpieces and says he was “inexperienced”. God i could never do that even with decades of experience. I understand that he tries to overcome himself and thats incredible but definitely everyone thinks that every single one of your works is astonishing!

Oh man I definitely cried over this one, but I'm so glad you were able to revisit this project! I definitely understand the yearn to perfect past art pieces, growth and practice always brings better results! Thank you so much for posting again!

偶然このチャンネルにたどり着き、すべての作品を遡ってみていた中で、この作品のストーリーや完成度に最後涙が止まらなくなりました。 この守護者が安らかであることを願わずにはいられませんでした。 素晴らしいストーリーと作品を作り上げたたらそほびやさんを心から尊敬します。 これからも活動応援しております。

The lady's soul leaving the body and finding her former love! - My Lord! - Yes my dear! I was waiting for you! - But! the curse! I should protect her body! the Enemies! - The war is over, honey! Our enemies are no more! - So the curse? she asks with tears in her eyes. - Yea! The curse is over! - Offering his hand and gently pulls her towards him. - From now on, nothing will separate us, we will live in love for eternity! The two souls disappear over the horizon, King and Queen have finally found eternal rest! The work on this diorama is fantastic! Thank you very much !

悲しくも美しい静謐な世界と物語に涙が溢れてきました。 動かぬ守護者の亡骸や廃墟と、守護者の周りで気ままに戯れるカモメとが、生と死の対比をより一層鮮烈にして切ない… 廃墟と化した美しい神殿の繊細な作り込みが荘厳な世界観を醸し出していて、今回も感動に次ぐ感動でした👏👏👏👏👏 この作品を心から愛して長く大切にしてくれる人の手に、この名作が渡りますように。

以前の作品もとても好きでしたが、更に進化した作品に出逢えて本当に嬉しいです。穏やかな表情をした彼が彼の主に再会出来ますように。

サムネできれいな作品だなと思って何気なくみたら、そのストーリーも作品の素晴らしさもあって大泣きした。全てがすばらしいです。

I don't think i ever cried to an art peace before.

The end of the video actually made me tear up. Another incredible piece of art.

Im not crying at the reveal story, you're crying! This is such a gorgeous piece and its fantastic to see your skills ever improving! Your dioramas have actually helped me kick my fear of deep water because all your guardians are so nice, thank you!

Incredible craftsmanship and a touching story. May you continue to make such breathtaking works for years to come.

Never would've thought I'd feel sad for a chunk of clay. The story behind the scene was very well thought out.

The details you can make out of wood and foam is awe inspiring! The story you created for the shark is amazing as well!

Thanks! I've been watching you for a while now. I'm always blown away by the level of dedication and detail in everything you make. All your work is awesome but this and The Well That Never Runs Dry and Guardian are my two favorite ones. Thank you for your hard work. I hope more people will support you financially so we can keep seeing amazing work from you. So talented.

I come back to this video everytime I need to let my emotions out. It helps me have a good cry and I always feel better after seeing this. Such a beautiful piece.

This has to be my favorite build from you, without a doubt. The guardian is so soft and gentle, almost smiling despite how sad the story is. Your skill with creating dioramas is astounding and I never tire of watching your videos over and over, thank you so much for sharing your passion with us. I shed a tear for the guardian!

The art that you create is always absolutely wonderful, it's always exciting when one of your videos is released! The time and effort that you put into these projects really shows, so thank you for all that you do! Edit: also, the story for this video is beautiful! I feel for the shark and hope he's at peace

これは凄い....技術も凄いけど完成まで持っていく忍耐力が特に素晴らしい。。今まで見てきたジオラマの中でもダントツで一番感動しました。。

Based on how he communicates during the video, this guy seems like the sweetest, most humble and most hardworking man in the world. He MUST be protected at ALL costs!!

This was beautifully done and really moving. I can absolutely understand anyone who was moved to tears by this magnificent work. Also, I never before used this option of UKposts but your work is well worth it.

I love the small bits of fantasy storytelling you include. The guardian isn't a monster, it's more like a loyal companion which, tragically, outlived its master, and is now oh so painfully alone. The entire scene is a mere shadow of what once was a vibrant and holy sanctum.

これまでの動画も、何度も繰り返し見て楽しませてもらっています。 いつか美術館に所蔵されて沢山の人が見ることの出来る時代が来ないものか…なんてことを思い描きつつ、オークションで素敵な持ち主が現れることをお祈りしております。 love your works!!

“Too inexperienced”?? Mate, you’re one of the most talented people on UKposts. You’re the only diorama creator I’ve seen not take short cuts, use expensive props or 3D printers. All your work is genuinely made by hand. Your early work is amazing and your work now is even more beautiful. Love watching your videos and I’m very glad companies are giving you recognition and work.

Thalasso, watching the video of how you built it from start to finish was truly a gift to everyone who can appreciate your talent. Seeing how much you put into it, i know you have plans to auction it but, I HOPE it remains in your personal collection! Then one day, perhaps you can have it put in a famous art museum so your talent can be remembered always.

Your art continues to be some of the most impressive dedicated and wonderful pieces ive seen. I hope this helps.

This remake shows how far your skills develop and I really love the new version. I feel like hugging the guardian 😢. But anyway, Awesome work and inspiring to see your process and commentary.

Your art makes my heart soar, I can't describe it in any other way. And that's although I have Thalassophobia!!! 😅 Poor Guardian, I want to hug him so bad! What a loyal soul ❤️

Oh wow that ending made me cry. Especially the part about remembering the warmth of their lord's palm on their forehead. You really did a great job showing their bond. The matching rubies is such a nice touch.

Omg, that last bit… that set off the tears! 😭 I love this even more than the original!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I dunno why I suddenly cried after seeing the finish product ... I don't even know the full story of the "shark" guardian, but there's something captivating about it 😭❤ Thank you for your hardwork! You may sometimes feel that you're not improving, but believe me, YOU'VE IMPROVED!!! you're always improving!!! And yes, this work of yours is definitely worth for auction, so be confident! Looking forward to your future projects 💝😌❤

I think this one is as meaningful as itself,, it portraits how this guardian protecting something it holds dear despite being hurt ... I like this one a lot...

I have watched hundreds of dioramas be made over the years, including watching your channel grow from the beginning. Never, in all that time, has one brought me tears; finding them awe-inspiring yes, tears no. This is the first thing I watched this morning and it's set my mood for the day. I always appreciate beauty, loyalty and love but this put a little sprinkle on top for the day ahead. Thank you. Absolutely breathtaking.

There’s no words to describe the stunning art work and story you’ve built around it

普通になんて手の込んだ作品なんだ、美しいんだ…と見ていたら、最後のストーリーでまさか泣いてしまうなんて…😭　傷だらけなのに穏やかな顔をして主人の手を思い出してるとか涙腺崩壊のストーリー込みの素晴らしい作品ですね。

You had me crying at the coffin. You really had me sobbing at the story end. Such a breath-taking, beautiful scenery and story. The amount of detail, care, love, and effort that went into this is simply a sight to behold, and something to be respected.

Watching again a long while later to see if it was as sad as I remember Edit: the answer is yes. Tears are streaming down my face right now! WHY IS THIS VIDEO MORE POWERFUL THAN ANY MOVIE IVE SEEN IN THE LAST 20 yrs???

I love that you're actually telling us how many mistakes you've made. This is no way slander - I genuinely love your work and watching your videos give me peace. You've inspired me to pick up dioramas myself, and I was fairly surprised how many mistakes I've made, but I was prepared. I hope to be as great as you are one day. Your videos keep me going - thanks for uploading.

I came here to watch a person make this beautiful diorama, not to cry about the story behind it. The story really touched me. Keep up the goodwork.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who cried watching this. This piece is absolutely hauntingly beautiful and the little story that goes with it just steps it up again. I'm so happy i found your channel, I don't usually make comments but I am obsessed!

i came back to rewatch this video again, and it made me cry :’3 this is such a beautiful diorama. the guardian series is incredible, thank you again for all of your hard work and dedication!

Stunning work! I was hoping you'd fill up the window with coloured glass, and you did! Thanks for the inspiration (even though you made me cry over an imaginary shark:))

Your work is incredible! There are other diorama artists on UKposts, but most use 3D printers. No shame in that, but your work is that much more impressive because everything is done by hand. You are awesome! Keep up the amazing work!

I'd feel bad harpooning him too, look at that face! 🥺 People's capacity for architecture and ingenuity never cease to amaze me and you're definitely no different. Your imagination and execution are incredible and I always look forward to your creations!

You know you make great work when you move people to tears.

綺麗で 神々しくて それでいて切なくて 語られた十数秒の中に集約された物語のなんと濃厚なことか

レジン作品みてこんなに号泣すると思わなかった。 美しい素晴らしい作品です。

I rarely comment on anything online, but watching this video I felt compelled to. I'm deeply afraid of the ocean, yet I'm only filled with peace when I watch you create these amazing pieces. The detail that you put into this is incredible, and my heart aches for the scene you showed. I felt the same guilt you did when I saw the guardian's injuries. Your content is beyond stunning, and I wanted to thank you for sharing it with the world in this way!

Every time I come back to this one (which is frequently) I’m always amazed and awed. This one makes me tear up. Such a beautiful bittersweet story and piece.

This is deeply moving. A longing so tender, so gentle and so heartbreaking at the same time. Quiet grief on the verge of a peaceful sleep. Supreme loyalty. Supreme devotion. Supreme love. This shark has the face of a dog lying at the tomb of its owner. Having done all he could. No longer needing to wake up…and possibly no longer wanting to. It is a very special, beautiful kind of pain. Thank you.

The original version has always been one of my favorites of your wonderful creations. But this one is equally as amazing. And in many ways so much greater. Watching you create such wonderful things as this makes the writer in me conjure up a grand story. One of pain, sorrow, happiness, and loneliness. And one of hope. Thank you for sharing such amazing creations.

I think the sculpture you made could be bigger, but a tip I wanna tell you is something called Score Epoxy; Epoxy poured over a block of clay with micro cuts in it, you can make light bounce in the glass and make the light going through the glass more vibrant and brighter. 1. The color of the Epoxy depends on what you want, but use paint or paint dust if you want a deeper or more vibrant color. 2. You need a very sharp tool, like a razor blade or glass shard, and set the blade on the epoxy and not press 3. As the epoxy dries, when it's semi-rubbery, then cut the shapes/lines. 4. Cut the shape/lines into the Epoxy *(NO ROUND EDGES)*. 5. Let it dry the rest of the way. 6. Cut it to the needed shape/size. DONE!

Wow. That ending made me shed a few tears. 😪😪😪

This is so beautiful and moving. Your improvement is obvious to see from the quality of this piece. Well done.

引き込まれる世界観とそれを表現する美しい作品。盛り込まれる小ネタと垣間見える狂気の作業量。 この動画のどこを切り取っても好きです。応援しております。

I really liked this story and the guardian is amazing. For some reason i felt confortable with the guardian, and also, i want to thank you for not harpooning it anymore. Congrats for the amazing job and thanks for this incredible video :)

I know I may sound soft hearted, and I'm okay with that but....I could not stop myself from crying over this guardians story and expression, I don't know how else to explain it. Just something about his expression of resigned acceptance coupled with reminiscing over the time he spent with his companion just...broke my heart... I sincerely appreciate your work and the time and effort you put in and I just felt like I needed to share this. You may not even come back and read this , but I will still thank you nonetheless for this video. I've downloaded it to my hard drive and will cherish this heart wrenching melancholic feeling that's sitting in my chest. Thank you once again, I do hope you take care of yourself and cherish those around you as they will not always be there.

Art, especially skillfully done art, is part of what makes for a healthy society. We have to be able to recognize beauty in more forms than just erotic or romantic ones. You, time and time again, have channeled your creativity to make gorgeous and emotional pieces of art. I hope you know what a gift you have. Much love from USA.

貴方の美しい作品と、素晴らしいイマジネーション、生み出される物語、そしてなにより制作にかける情熱が大好きです。 素晴らしいクリエイターはもっと評価され、それに見合う報酬を受け取るべきだと思います。 これからも心から応援しています。

You say, for some reason you felt guilty adding harpoons to the shark, that means you are a good person and you care about nature, and you don’t want to harm creatures, even if they are inanimate objects you treat them as if they are animate(alive) I love that, I love your work, keep going and keep creating amazing things.

Honestly, I would love to see a piece that is the image of how the whale and his lord met. Maybe a young prince on the shore helping a small whale get out of a trap for example? Something that shows the beginning of the story for the Lord and his whale companion. ❤

The part where you felt guilty for adding harpoons into him hit me right in the emotions; it reminded me of Trico from The Last Guardian when you first find him… Great work as always; the soothing music and therapeutic actions you do always soothe me when I’m upset ❤️

What an absolutely stunning and magnificent piece of art...and the back-story...I shed tears for the guardian. 🥺🥀 I love this. It's so beautiful and heartbreaking.

I have rewatched this video probably a dozen times. I am drawn to the story like no other. Yes every time my heart breaks, and every time I cry. But I'm drawn back again and again. You are an exquisite artist and with a few words weave a story that spans ages.

Every once in a while I come back to see your videos. So many of them are breathtaking. Keep up the good work!

守護者のこの子にとって、大切で大好きでずっとずっと一緒に居たい主。これからは、離れること無く一緒に居られますね。 設定も作品も細やかで、一つの物語を最後まで見届けたみたいに、余韻が凄い。この子の長い年月を考えると涙が溢れました。いつも、素晴らしい作品をありがとうございます。 これからも沢山の方に愛される、たらそほびやさんでありますように。夏の暑い時期ですので、ご自愛くださいね。

あまりのの美しさに泣いちゃいました…。素敵な作品をありがとうございます…。

I'd like to think that the story is that after the guardian from no.11 waited for its master for a few hundred years, its body started to degrade, and it could no longer feed itself, and, it eventually decided that it's time to rest, that it has done its job, and that its master would be proud of it

I absolutely loved this! It would be awesome to see this guardian be worked into a full blown story in a manga or something similar. 🥰

守護者の話が泣かせました。これは本当に美術品ですよ。

What a Masterpiece! Also the ending was very touching. Thank you for posting your amazing art my friend. 👏👏👏👏

I just had to come back and watch this again. It’s still one of my favourite artworks on UKposts. You’re an incredibly talented artist and I think I’m speaking for everyone when I say I hope you continue to do what you do in creating your masterpieces

Ayo somebody cutting onions in here 🥲 but seriously amazing artwork!!! ITS BEAUTIFUL!
