Well this year has not gone according to plan. I am sure most of you would agree. It most certain has not for me. Shortly after Adepticon became Adeptican't, I had to go to a 103 day training course and have been stuck in a hotel room every day since then. I did bring a ton of Hobby stuff with me, but in general motivation has been low and the environment not entirely conducive to hobbying and in particular, painting and blogging. A Hampton in hotel room was not designed to be a "hobby haven" for sure, but I've tried to make the most of it.
At this point I am down to my last month, and will try and get some more content up here, but I haven't had much to talk about without releases from GW and every event cancelled. And the lack of access to my camera gear means hobby posting is limited too. However I do have some psychic awakening books on the way to me here, so I should be talking about that soon.
In the meantime, you can see my hobby progress best on my Instagram

Facebook for the best hobby related memes.
Anyway, before I left I did some preparation for my exile
-Organized, Primed, and Basecoated for contrasts all of my ASoIF models (over 220 models)
-Primed and prepped all my Aeronautica Imperialis
-Assembled, Primed and basecoated a Pallas Grav Tank
-Basecoated 6 Plague Ogors
I also packed up all my Titanicus with the hope of getting a game in in the local area, but COVID restrictions have entirely prevented that and I don't hold much hope of being able to play one in my last month.
With that done I packed up my Jeep and headed out.
