So the blog has been a little quiet in June &#8211; I didn&#8217;t intend for it to be quite so quiet, it just worked out this way. First up, I had a week on holiday down in Devon, seeing family and being completely detached from the tiny mans (except some Lego building with my nephew). Getting away was good and I even managed to plan out a few upcoming things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Second, I&#8217;m in the middle of a potential upheaval that might impact some hobby time in the coming months. More details when it actually goes through but I&#8217;m very excited about it. Downside, it does leave me ending a lot of days with not much energy in the painting tank (been playing a lot of Fortnite as the pretty colours\/well designed characters please my tired, tired brain).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1446\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/PXL_20220621_231027989.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25628\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/PXL_20220621_231027989.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/PXL_20220621_231027989-150x113.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, I have managed to do some hobby! As I started before I left on holiday, my Shurta test figures are now all done! I&#8217;m happy with the colour scheme I&#8217;ve come up with, requiring only a few colours, washes and some makeup brushes for the final touch ups. With four down, time to take a look at the rest. Expect some more details soon&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1446\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/PXL_20220620_200649789.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25629\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/PXL_20220620_200649789.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/PXL_20220620_200649789-150x113.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve also got more 3d printing pieces out &#8211; Probably the main thing is Spectre&#8217;s STL releases.
