I think that proxy model companies would be OK, or at least a route to look at. I did get my first squad fully painted and off Ebay for a little more than half the actual price on GW. As for the money, I plan on getting a job soon, and considering I'm only 17 and don't really have bills to pay... well.... hobbies won't be killing me as much as my soon-to-be gaming counterparts. Sisters Of Battle have never really been super appealing to me. I used to play guard on the computer games, but they aren't as appealing to me after researching a bit here. I'm more of an infantry guided person, but I want firepower. Plus getting into it, something easy-to-play. So, marines would be a good way in. I plan Ultramarines because they are the most strict with the Codex than the other chapters, forcing me to learn it better when I get one (and the rule book of course). Plus they look cool :P That is always a plus. I'm currently eyeing some models on Ebay (I found some unpainted and in-the-box sealed drop pods which are between $20-$30, new is $40), and I need an HQ of some sort. I'm not going to worry about terrain right now, because I can make a lot of that. I do have some modeling material left over from some of my previous model making, so that will help cut down those cost. I'm glad people actually aren't snobby and are willing to help me get into this! Thanks you!
