Sure, I’ve had plenty of hobby-funks, mostly when is wasn’t doing to great mentally.
Keep in mind it’s a hobby and supposed to make you feel good. I’ve heard plenty people with creative hobbies saying it’s both the way to relax, but they need to be kinda relaxed already to start a session.
For me the way to get back into it is to start some smaller, simpler projects and get them done. The rush of finishing a project, even a small one, gets me motivated to start bigger and bigger projects.
Do what feels good, don’t push yourself to finish that 300 model army but try for some simple terrain if need be.
Everything you’ve done is done.
I really like the saying: everything worth doing, is worth doing poorly.
If you wanna run a marathon, but all you’ve done is take a hours hike, it’s still more than sitting on a couch.
Allow yourself to feel good about that and enjoy the hike.
