Well, to be able to add color to your miniatures, you are going to need paint. You don't need a large collection of colors, but the more variety you have, the better. Many manufacturers today bring out many different types of water based paints in pots or sprays, ranging from your basic colors, all the way through to metallic paints. So your choices can be endless when it comes to personalizing your own figures.
Basic Paints
To get you started in the hobby of painting your war gaming miniatures, I would suggest one of each color of the rainbow, as well as black and white. This way you can mix different colors to get a desired one, if you don't already have it. On top of these I would also suggest a couple of metallic paints, such as gold and silver. These two will come in handy when it comes to painting those weapons, armor and jewelry. Once you have got your basic colors, then it is a good idea to maybe get some of the different shades that GW bring out. Take red for example. You have the choice between Blood red, Blood Angel red and Crimson Gore. These are all different shades of the one color.
