Been into warhammer purely through tts for a little while now and want to start actually building an army, but have zero experience with painting or assembling minis. I'm aware we are the most expensive army and have a generally harder to paint range, but I have my heart set on admech at this point. My first thought was a set of skitarii rangers, would there be a better place to start for a newcomer to the hobby side?

Edit: It seems I was correct in having skitarii, kastelans, and a dunecrawler as my top three (very conveniant because they're the 3 I want the most anyway heh). I'll probably do skitarii first and pick up a dunecrawler and/or an adequate number of kastelans some time after that. Thank you all for the advice!
