Dave Taylor Takes His Book To Kickstarter To Help Paint Your Armies, Legions, & Hordes
March 16, 2018 by warzan
Dave Taylor has launched a Kickstarter to help publish his hobby help book Armies & Legions & Hordes.
Some of you may remember Dave Taylor's Painting Wargaming Collections series of articles here on Beasts of War.

The book follows a similar focus. Rather than being a "How to Paint" book, it will focus on giving hobbyists the tools they need to regularly finish up their own large projects.
The book will take hobbyists through the various stages of creating a large project piece, from the initial inspiration to triumphant completion, helping you find ways to keep yourself motivated and plan out your project along the way.
It will also feature a wealth of army projects from across a wide range of genres.
These can show just what can be achieved, and should also provide plenty of opportunities for you to get inspired for your own project work.
The Kickstarter will let the book get published, with stretch goals allowing for even more content.
Dave won't be alone in this though, as he has invited a few others who are well versed in completing large projects to contribute themselves. You may even recognise one of them...

Well that was a no brainer to back, big fan of daves work for years, plus the others contributing 🙂
Thanks for that, much appreciated : )
Well, i know where some of my hobby funds are going on payday 😀 .
Ooh yeah, I have to get this book!
You could say this book is “Taylor” made for us… I’ll get me coat. 😀
Backed. As I will be starting a large army project later on this year, this is perfect timing.
Backed! Looking forward to learning more about the contents during the campaign.
An interesting interview. I will check out the KS.
Not only is Dave a great hobbyist he’s also an amazing person period.
From the stuff he’s doing in the community to the amazing work of the Nova Foundation.
Instant Back!
Backed, good luck Dave!
Thank you to the Beasts of War team, and a BIG thank you to the BOW Community. Such a great combination that brings so much to the greater community. I really appreciate all the support I’ve received so far : )
Backed! I’d also back a kickstarter to clone John so that we all could have one 🙂
great video guys the book sounds worth a once over.
Backed (don’t tell the beloved as I’m off KS as a New Years Resolution, but heh it’s been nearly 3 months!)
As the posessor of many, many boxes of shame, this wasn’t a hard decision to back!
@davetaylor something I’d like to see addressed is tackling armies you’ve already begun accumulating. So rather than the starting point being ‘what kind of army do you want to build?’, how do you deal with the mountain of stuff (besides selling / giving it away)? Is it too late to follow the steps needed to get a successful outcome?
