A Skull at the Throne of Khorne

Alright crew?
Girlfriend has been collecting 40K for a year or so now and on passing a Games Workshop near us, I was asked if I wanted to go in. We came out with a Chaos Battleforce, Codex, Defiler, Terminators and a Terminator Lord, along with paints and more tools than I've got at work. I don't even have to wait till Christmas for em!
I've had a go at assembling the Terminators, Lord and Defiler with a bit of help, so now I'm looking for some advice and tips from the guys who've been doing this kind of thing for a lot longer than us two.
Hopefully see you lot around the forums!
