Hobbying while on travel: Epic Space Marine Painting

And.... I'm back! After an overseas move and the start of a new job, I finally have time to get back to hobbying again.

I am currently on several business trips and have found the way to keep up with miniature painting while not at home and wanted to share that.

The solution for me is the Battlefoam Pack Mini !


This small bag fits perfectly in a suitcase and can be filled with paints and minis (although you need to check your bag if you travel by plane or put the paint pots in a transparent ziplock bag). This the paint pots I put in my bag for a weeklong workshop:


The paint brushes are slided into one of the Pack Mini's pocket and minis are put in the remaining spots. I also brought a small rag inserted in the pack mini.

At the hotel, this is the paint station I have set up:


An example of all the Epic 40K minis that can fit in the 11 remaining spots in the pack mini:


And yes... I am getting back into Epic... 8 years later ! Got hooked again after a great (re) introduction game... Am painting my Space Wolves again and can't wait to field them...
