Salutations from a complete novice. What's your recommendations to get started?

Note: A FLGS in town actually has a mini-painting workstation that you can use for $5/session, or as part of their monthly subscription for playing TTRPGs onsite. Since I play PF2E there several times a week I have that subscription. So I have a place to paint that's already kitted out with just about anything you could need for mini-painting. (I think they charge extra if you want to add stuff like grass, sand, etc. to the mini, but the primer, paints, sealers, etc. are all included.)

I have two awesome minis arriving soon that are unpainted, so I'm looking for online sites/videos that start from "I know nothing" and work up from there.

Thanks in advance for any and all guidance you can provide!

It happens at last once basically everytime I glue a bunch of dudes together.

This time at least it was a fairly painless removal.

And I didn't glue it to my desk so I'll take the W wherever I can.

Friend has a pile of old unusable FDM prints and I decided to do a low stress one off paintjob with some craft paint and see how it came out.

The current official models are downright embarrassing, so here's my take.

This is somebody elses' model that I rebased and gave an armor touch up too while I was there. Not a full strip and repaint, so some underlying issues like injection points still on the mini, but still overall I think he pops a lot more now.
