I was looking for a book series with lore to immerse myself in like Lord of the Rings because video games are boring to me now and I bought Eisenhorn and Hero of the Imperium, and then I remembered I have some extra money now so now I am buying the Ultimate Starter Set + hobby supplies and it will be here soon :3

I am going to paint during the day for therapy and then read the books in the evening for escapism

Warhammer 40k is so cooooooool ^.^

I'm hyped for it to get here

I think I'm going to read The Horus Heresy before I continue with the Omnibuses I already bought considering I know a little more about the lore and the God-Emperor through the wiki. I'll stop where I am in Eisenhorn and start the Horus Heresy book 1.

Can't wait to paint ^.^ heehee

Welcome and good luck! Lots of good advice here...

I can afford about $70 per week for minis
So cool :X
I going to paint all my minis in the starter set and play Combat Patrols against my stepdad so maybe he will get into it
I like Black Templars and Astra Militarum

Meanwhile I read the books heehee

Fun!

Take your time, don't go nuts
A big pile of unpainted minis can get demoralising...
Hope you have fun!

Wish you a fun hobby journey

Welcome to the hobby!

That kind of bright eyed enthusiasm really takes me back.
