Have Hobby Will Travel (2023)
Woah Back Up Now and Give a Brother Room
So where did this all start? Some grand desire to turn holidays into hobby hangouts? Not really. It started kind of by accident following me setting up a small painting station in my living room. The background to that is covered in my 2023 goals project.
Long story short, for the reasons described therein, I had readily to hand a Really Useful Box with the models I was working on, and another with the tools/paints etc I was using (on the first trip it was lots of sprues and assembly tools). It was a really simple idea to pick up both boxes, throw them in the car, and take them to Wales on a short break. I had no major plans to do hobby, it was there just in case.
Turns out, it was a revelation. There was a little desk where we were staying, I moved it to the living room, moved a lamp to it, and did a little bit of hobby each day while we were chilling out in the evenings. I was quite happy sitting and glueing units of models with no targets or pressures. The next trip it was to the same place, so it was the same setup but painting rather than building.
So now it’s a thing, and I’m looking forward to some holiday hobby in a couple of weeks
