My 2 cents:
You'll want to make this easy for yourself to avoid the headaches/frustration of starting out. Try quality paints, if you start with the wrong or inappropriate paints you may just get frustrated and quit before you can get 1 custom done. Want the best answers regarding paints etc. ? Go here...

I just got back from a visit to a couple of hobby shops, they had some small bottles of testor acrylics for about $3.50 which is less than what I thought they would be, I'm going to pick up about 10 or 12 colors and some brushes. I can't wait to post my first custom pics! Now I need to find some threads about taking apart the figures LOL. Thanks for all the awesome info Tankers!
