...Maybe I could get some tips on painting? All of the colours I have are the ones that were on the back of the box :winky:
http://www.paintingclinic.comPainting clinic is a great place to learn about painting, although you might want to skip the high detail stuff and just get to playable.
Also, if you live near a GW store, stopping by for a lesson isn't a terrible way to go.
I generally work from the inside out - skin, clothing close to the skin, armor, then trim. Everything gets confused with more complicated models, though.
Adding water to you paint, so that it isn't to "pasty", is an import thing to learn, as are washes and drybrushes.
I think the most important rule for me, personally, is that an army that is entirely painted to a decent / good level of quality looks better than an army that is half painted to a great level of quality, and the rest bare metal. That's just my personal taste, though, and other people may strongly disagree.
