ARMIES & LEGIONS & HORDES by Dave Taylor in 176-page printed hardback book.
10,000 miniatures and more! That’s how many wargaming models Dave Taylor has painted over the last 27 years. That’s dozens of armies, for some of the most popular wargames systems (and some of the most obscure, too!) Some of these have been commissions and others have been personal projects. During that time, he has had a LOT of conversations about the “what”, “why”, and “how” of the inspiration, preparation, and motivation for such large projects.
Dave decided it was high time he wrote all these things down, compiling decades of knowledge about completing wargaming armies on a regular basis. He also thought it would be cool to include detailed photographs of his more popular projects such as the Genswick 33rd Rifles, his Warlord Titan, and his Nuln Empire army.
ARMIES & LEGIONS & HORDES covers topics including:
- Inspiration
- Aims
- Expectations
- Planning
- Motivation
- Triumph!
The book also contains contributions from some of his favorite army painters including:
Ash Barker from Guerrilla Miniature Games, Mel Bose from The Terrain Tutor, Joel Moon from the Mordian 7th blog, and John Lyons from Beasts of War.
The 176-page, hardback book features some of Dave’s favorite army/collection projects. These photo showcases also function as specific examples of the army painting process described in the first half of the book. These projects include:
- Sci-fi Mass Battle armies
- Sci-fi Skirmish collections
- Sci-fi Big Projects
- Fantasy Mass Battle armies
- Fantasy Skirmish collections
- Historical Mass Battle armies
- Historical Skirmish collections
- Post-apocalyptic Skirmish collections
So, if you’ve ever struggled to see a wargaming army project through to completion, this book is for you. Filled with ideas on how to overcome roadblocks and keep yourself on track for success, ARMIES & LEGIONS & HORDES will be able to help you achieve your goals!
