RE: Miniature Painting: A Guide for Beginners
I always wanted to collect and paint Warhammer40k miniatures but never got the chance to do it. There are some really cool looking models there.

The best way to get into the game right now is the Kill Team set. It includes the main rule book, the Kill Team supplemental rule book, and models for Space Marines and Tau for a starter skirmish game. These kits can be expanded, or another faction can be purchased instead, depending on how you want to play.
I am sorely tempted to build a Harlequins Kill Team, since that faction isn't a complete army anyway and doesn't have most of the forbidden units for a Kill Team skirmish game. Most of the Start Collecting or Armored Assault kits are good options, and the included vehicles can either be traded to another wargamer or kept on hand for future expansion into the full 40K game if they don't meet Kill team criteria.
