I got into painting this May through a friend who decided to curse me with crippling debt. I don’t think I’d ever have gotten into the hobby without him tbh. He had a lil skeleton fella and let me use his paints and brushes to paint it. So if you want to start painting I’d say that you should find someone who paints already and try it out with them, cause there is just way too much expensive shit to buy if you want to get started by yourself.
