About me

Hello,
I’m Thalasso Hobbyer, a diorama artist from Japan.
Thank you so much for watching my YouTube channel and for taking an interest in my work.
On this official site, you can view images of my creations. Though my older works are yet to be uploaded, I hope you enjoy exploring my most notable pieces.


[August 2024]
I’m excited to announce the release of my very first book!
The text is presented in both English and Japanese. It features a carefully curated selection of 11 of my diorama pieces, showcasing not only the finished works but also behind-the-scenes images, stories, and insights into the creative process. Additionally, there’s a Q&A section where I answer many questions submitted through social media.

Here are a few sample pages from the book. 

This book represents the culmination of my creative journey, and I wrote this in the hopes that many people will pick it up and enjoy it. Please feel free to visit the sales pages if you’re interested.

Unfortunately, I was hoping to list the book on Amazon.US and Europe, but due to various reasons, it has been challenging to make that happen. I apologize for the inconvenience.
 

Using Amazon Global is the most affordable way to order my book. 

Amazon Global is an international shipping service provided by Amazon.
Amazon Global handles customs procedures on your behalf, and the estimated amount for import taxes, duties, and other fees is presented at the time of purchase.
With a simple process, you can easily order products from Japan.
In addition to the book price, there will be shipping fees. Sorry about that.
