New beginnings!

I've always loved Warhammer and I've always preferred fantasy to 40k, I've just never owned an actual army. Been a long time lurker of forums and the Games Workshop website has always been on my bookmarks bar, so now is the time we go all in. I've got disposable income, no responsibilities and I really am just going to do this. I'm going to paint up some random bits and see where we get. I want an army to field at the end of all this that I'm happy with, whether that's Stormcast or something I pick up along the way naturally, we shall find out. For now, here's the Liberator's I have built over the past couple days from the starter set. Going to paint them in the Celestial Vindicators colours. Bring it on!

You are not alone, I think a lot of us have similar tales behind why we are now getting into the hobby and many of us have been drawn back. I myself have been a long time lurker who hadn't really participated since my days as a sprog. However the boom that we are experiencing now makes it the perfect time to dive back in. Looking forward to your painting. Any ideas what armies may draw your attention so far?

A long, long time ago in a White Dwarf far far away, the hipster inside of me always wanted to paint an entire army of Glade Guard in a cherry blossom theme. These inclinations are urging me towards Sylvaneth, but to try and instil some good habits, I'm going to finish these Stormcast before I move away. Thanks for the reply, I didn't honestly expect anyone to even view this!

In the real world I am an ecologist so I have always had the romance of doing a lifelike sylvaneth army but I never can find the time! I am currently finishing up my ogre army for a tournament and trying to decide what to collect next for a big project army. Cherry blossom sylvaneth sounds like a really good theme though!

I seem to be torn between wanting to do an army that is really unpopular (Hipster also) and wanting one that plays well. They dont usually go hand in hand!

Ive recently just got back into the hobby myself. Ive been sceptical over Age of Sigmar for ages but I love the new models.

The miniature that drew me back in was when I saw the newly released Lord of Change. Though I havent got one yet I have the makings of a Tzeentch Army, and the Blue and Brimstone Horrors.
