Awesome quick start guide, and "just do it!" is great advice for getting in to almost any hobby. I still haven't painted any minis (almost all of the minis I have are of the pre-painted plastic variety) but if I can find my old HeroQuest game at my parent's house I will have a bunch of unpainted minis to try my hand at. In particular I am thinking about painting up a bunch of the skeletons as the D&D campaign I am running seems to be heading in a very undead direction. :)
