I'll throw some advice in.

For drybrushing, you'll get most of the paint off the brush on your 
palette, but a piece of good paper towel is essential for making the 
transition from "damp brushing" to drybrushing.

For the novice painter, a "wargaming grade" figure is only supposed to 
look good at arms length. Don't worry about any flaws you can't see at 
that distance.
