Building Your Travel Kit! What to Take and What to Leave at Home
Mini painting on the road! I've built many hobby travel kits, and I have some thoughts about how to stay productive and entertained when you're away from your hobby desk. Here's a checklist that's useful whether you're going to a game convention or going to grandmas house.
This is the checklist that I use:
Clippers
Hobby knife
Sanding sticks And or Files
tweezers
A toothbrush
Safety Pin
Painting handles
Blue tack Putty
Clamps
A Work surface like cutting board or placemat.
Dry palette
Wet palette and extra sheets for the wet palette.
Desk LAMP
Extension cord
Plastic glue
super glue
Brush on primer
Some Paint
Some brushes
Some Brush caps
Brush soap
A case for sunglasses.
Bubble wrap.
Plastic Bags
Paper towels
Salsa jar
Hard outer case to put things in
Some minis to work on!

A few hundred bucks for hours of enjoyable hobby work, assembling and painting, then using them for hours and hours of games with your friends, and an artifact that you can keep forever and enjoy just having. People pay a hundred dollars to go see musicians perform for one evening. The value proposition for a hobby like miniature wargaming is actually not that bad. I'm not even going to get into how idiotic it is comparing it to annoying upcharges from services like airlines.

Best advice, be honest with yourself. My first trip home I brought laundry and books to study from. My older brother picked me up from the train and said never bring dirty laundry home again asked if I really thought I was going to get any studying done. I didn't do any studying and the laundry was a distraction from hanging out with my folks.

I got a travel nail polish case to store my paints when I first started and didn't have dedicated space. It's now my travel case, able to hold paints, brushes, and models on a 40mm base.
Harbor freight sells black and yellow nut and bolt sorters that can hold quite a few minis. They snap close and have handles
Side note; that brush on primer is a godsend and would never be left out of a travel kit of mine. I ordered a single bottle to try it out awhile back, because I live in the water and wind is always a negative factor for me, and after using it once, I damn near cleaned Gnomish Bazaar out on my next order.
Wow, that clamp on the paint pod was an actual life-hack O_O

Ah, Speed Stik, I see you are a man of refined taste.
Thanks for the great packing list for hobbying on the hoof
As someone who started the hobby just a few months back and travel for work almost every week, I found some great advice here! I currently use small box with compartments to store everything, but I think just a simple box without those would be better as some paint bottles don't fit well there and some brushes are too long as you demonstrated. I also learned the hard way that glue should be stored separately or inside a bag... Somehow the bottle had leaked and it managed to melt a few minis. Got really upset about that but I think I will try to paint those damaged bits as battle scars or something. As the space in my luggage is very limited due to all the tools I need for work, I use an LED headlamp. The lighting in hotel rooms are in fact terrible and once I had to move an armchair to the bathroom, which had the only decent lamp in the room :D Anyways I think it's a great hobby for someone who travels.

Haahahahaa, hobby in the bathroom for better lighting, outstanding tip! :-)
Wow that is a lot of gear. I went on holiday the other week with 5 paints (3 plus black and white), 3 brushes and 4 minis for 2 people to use. The main thing is prep, have your minis assembled, maybe even undercoated, so they can be painted straight away. A cup from the hotel and a saucer for a pallette and away you go 😊 one of those Doritos dip jars is great as a pallette (the lids are nice and wide) and water pot combo if you want something specific. The next challenge is surely how little you need to actually paint/hobby? 😉 PS you can totally use a tackle box for brushes, just drill a hole that bites into the edges of the dividers for your brushes to clip into
5:44 That lamp looks so handy :D
Was waiting for Goobs to randomly say "Crystal Meth" somewhere in his checklist.
Got to meet Brent and pick his brain for a while at Too Many Games 2024. Great guy, his knowledge is so valuable for a newbie to miniatures like myself. Thanks again!
I'd add a small storage bin style cleaning dustpan for some locations - if its a visit to grandma they will have a bin you can sweep the mess into, but not every location you may wish to hobby will have a place to discard of the waste you are making, so bringing something you can sweep (bring a large brush head?) the mess into to take away with you that is easy to empty later would be a good idea.

I am not (yet) a miniature painter, but I am a fibre crafter and I've used a variety of containers to have with me as travel kits. As I work as a bus driver doing school bus runs, charters, etc, and often have downtime where I need to fill in time (or a breakdown so time to fill in while waiting to be rescued), taking an entertainment kit with me has been a must and it needs to be small as I do not have much space to stash things.
7 of 9... everyone's favorite borg, or Brent's haul at the paint and take?
Fanny Packs How Cool is that....😂😂✌️👍‼️
I recently started to travel for work again, via airplane. And my travel kit is slightly different but has many similarities. First, I don't do basing on the road, only assemble and paint. I use an exemplar wet pallet, and in the top store my brushes and dry pallets. As for paints, I have a water proof box that I got from a hardware store to keep my paints in my check suit case. For miniature transport, I have a super cheap pelican box and glued a piece of steel from a cut up baking sheet. All my minis are magnetized for transport and this makes it easier. Finally, a good foldable light like the one in the video is critical. Most hotel rooms have very poor lighting. Most importantly, have fun!
Absolutely loved this video, great and cheap tips as always. Also enjoyed the bit of you in the airport😂

I took your advice to switch from boxes to ziplock bags for bits storage, and now I have a big supply of three different sizes I use for everything. I magnetise all my minis, so they feel pretty secure in a small-ish metal box while my brushes, paints and other things go in ziplock bags. The whole setup fits neatly into a tote bag and has made quite a few trips to the in-laws pretty productive!

In lieu of a portable desklamp, pack a decent head torch (and a small USB battery charger). My hobby paints and washes have survived multiple long-haul international flights (14-20 hours) in checked bags without issue: I use plastic boxes and wrap + pad them with clothing. Champagne corks + poster tak are my go-to painting handles and are easy to source while away. Tissue paper is better padding for more fragile minis (e.g. 3D printed) than bubble wrap which could put differential pressure on long + fragile elements of your models.

Huh, my wet palette is old, one-piece sandwich box with toilet paper and parchment paper, which in travel doubles as container for spare parchment sheets and paints (usually Vallejo Metal Colour (Dark aluminium, gold and copper), because they don't fit in my travel box) EDIT. Besides that, said VMC bottles double as painting handle for minis
I have a nice box that can fit some spure of minis, my glue, my small box of tools, and thats it. I haven't planned for painting yet but I figure if I'm going to a convention or something like that I'll bring my wet pallet and some brushes and see if there's any paint ranges I want to try at the con even if there isn't I have a list of my favorite paints I can possibly buy from a hobby shop and knowing I'll use them I'm not worried about having an extra or two :)
Great video, i love bringing a project along to the in-laws when we visit. I typically build but have done some painting in the past. I need to find a better travel lamp that packs down easily.
I paint minis on my lunchbreak at work, and it's a similar principle - only take a few models you know you'll work on and one or two basecoat paints, or a sprue that I can disassemble and bag up. The only difference is, I use a mold-line remover because work would hit the roof if they caught me using a knife at my desk! Also, clippers and some baggies are a good thing to take to a con anyway, since that way you can pack down any purchases you make that won't fit in your luggage for the return trip!
Always love your videos! I also prefer to bring something to hobby whenever I travel.
Thanks for the video! Great kit suggestions!
I like to plasti-tack a model to the inside of a reversible prescription pill bottle cap, then I can store the mini in the bottle for travel, and use the bottle as a handle when painting.

I brought a bunch of Mythic Battles Pantheon minis with me to my in-laws several years ago. I only brought skin tones and focussed on that. It worked perfectly.
Many of us have been living out of a Plano tacklebox to hobby for many deployments. Got this down to a science.

I have a nice travel box from Frontier Wargaming. I love it! And they let you customize a little bit so they fit your needs. 🙂
I am thinking about purchasing a hard shell make up case to use when I travel. Make up cases are practically made for the hobby as they have brush compartments, compartments for hobby supplies and a section for paints (nail polish section of the makeup case). They’re much cheaper than hobby cases. As soon as you put the word hobby next to something it automatically triples in price. If you’re serious about your hobby you can get large make up cases on wheels which look like a small hard shell piece of luggage, complete with the pop out handle. It will hold a huge amount of hobby stuff. You could even fit a small airbrush compressor in the bottom of them.
Love it, such useful tips! Defs agree with the ‘be honest with yourself about what you’re actually going to get to’. Yeah just bringing one step of the project works well for me (eg just paint, or just prep)

Odd tip/trick or whatever, but I find that bowling ball bags are perfect for fitting all of your little hobby tools, minis, and especially paints. They usually have lil compartments for rags and are quite spacious despite being really compact! Also I relate heavily to the tacklebox, they seem perfect but are always too tight a fit... and I can't count how many projects I've completed at grandma's house c:

I would say I almost exclusively paint away from home. my work has a lot of down time and can be boring so I fill the time painting models. I agree heavily with this video as it's all stuff I use or would use if the need came up. I definitely say that every hobbiest needs a Go Box in their life. I would add a reliable light source if you can fit it in with your stuff as some places don't have good light and I have found it difficult to work with at times. I have also found that a 3x3 silicon fidget pop toy works great as a dry pallet as it's small so you don't waste space or too much paint and the paint doesn't stick to it well making cleanup a breeze. Another suggestion to add is 1 or 2 mini pipettes should be added to the box. one for water so you can thin your paints and the other to use if you are working with washes or contrast paints and you want to regulate how much paint there is in the mixture. also a wooden toothpick is helpful if you need to scrub away a mistake in a pinch. My last suggestion would be 1 or 2 nylon gloves. sometimes you need to handle the model by an already painted section and the oils on your hands can make paint rub off. gloves will help prevent this and keep you from needing to go back and redo stuff accidentally. it can also be used as a testing surface to see if the consistency is where you want it without you needing to do it on your actual hand if you have to be presentable.
A small pin vice or similar drill and small drill bits would be a good idea for assembling stuff and temporary work holding aid, along with some sort of wire with similar diameter to the drill bits you are bringing - many of these hand powered drills can hold a few drill bit and drill bit length offcuts of piano wire/paperclip inside the handle.

I had a work trip to Colorado last year. I mostly used a suitcase-looking toolbox from Harbor Freight. The only things that didn't fit were my lamp, and the minis. The next time I travel like that, I need to pack different minis. I took some of my Nighthaunt army, which is fine, they have a limited colour palete, but Dreadscythe Harridans are an annoying size to pack.
I went to the first soonercon! The hotel was literally 2 mins from my house in OK, it was the only time I ever got a chance to wear a different cosplay each day for a con.
My case for my travel kit is a sterilite stack and carry. Top half has the gear and bottom half has the paint and cutting mat/palette and a couple water cups. I also keep my paint in these slim pencil cases. Fully loaded i can transport 24-36 bottles depending if they are the pro acryl big boy bottles or not. Also for mini transport i bought some foam lined waterproof hard cases on amazon that were 2 for $9, since i mostly paint dnd models i can usually get 2-3 minis per case. All in all my setup is ideal for the supremely indecisive like me who has trouble packing on the essentials 😂.
I've got a big case that holds all my contrast paints as well as my favorite normal paints. I've got a tool box which I put my current painting projects in a long with some chunky foam to keep them from rattling around.. I often paint during DND so being able to just have the right paints always for whatever project is nice, all I have to with about is that I have my dice, character sheet and something to paint

Thanks for this! I'm interested in your take on how to prep 3D prints for painting. I'm shied away from buying a printer or prints from others because I'm not sure how to adequately remove the supports and other resin artifacts in a way that makes the paint still fun. If it's just for an army and painting is a side quest, it doesn't matter. But I want to put all my skill (as little as it may be) into painting the prints and I'm nervous about layer lines, support nipples, resin fits, etc. TL;DR: How do I prep a 3D print so that painting to a high quality is fun and not an exercise in trying to ignore printing artifacts?

STL vendors have gotten quite good at supports that peel off pretty easily. Print the mini, wash with alcohol, then place in warm water to get the supports to peel off. Clean any crumbs and nubs with a toothbrush and sharp slices with a hobby knife, finish curing the mini with uv light. When it's cured, do any final cleanup with a sanding stick.... that's how I do it! :-)

hi Brent, what would be the best and safe way to repair a resin figure? (other than put resin and uv light, I am not in the hobby of printing and painting figures myself) the thing is I just bought some really tiny resin printed ghostbusters and robocop figures (1/64 scale) they came painted, and some of they came broken and I accidentaly of course broke the robocop gun. So I was thinking in using "superglue" (Cyanoacrylate, called "la gotita" here in Chile) maybe with a toothpick to glue Egon's little hand holding the "aurascope" to his forearm and the same thin with the gun and robocop. Do you thing is safe to do it Chemestry speaking? I mean superglue + printed resin = Chernobyl? 😅 I was thinking in plastic glue like Revell Contacta Proffesional those for plastic models, i dont know which one do you think is th best option in terms of security and durability. Thanks in advance!!
Does anyone know where to get painting handles like he has in the video? The only corks I can find are either way to big or to small.
Do you have cross-dominant hands? It's when you have good motor skill for some taks with one hand but better motor skill with the other hand for different taks. I saw you using your right to build the mini at 1:30 but I usually see you paint with your left.
