What color primer to use?
So I'm about to begin painting for the first time, but I'm not sure what colors to buy. I play Star Wars Legion so I'll be painting a bunch of stormtroopers, death troopers, and other very monocolor minis. Should I use black and white primers for them? Or do neutral grey and paint the colors?
Bonus points if anyone can tell me if wildspire minis are good for a first time project.

If your using speed paints white all the way. You can use any matte white spray paint. Recommend doing a few test runs to get the hang of priming
You think straight white is a better choice than light grey?
Yep. I usually use a Rust-Oleum matte white rattle can when I'm planning on speed paints.
Light gray would work as well if you were planning to highlight with a white dry brush ala slap chop.
I really recommend you experiment and mess around. Paint can always be stripped, and honestly you can reprime over a paint job a few times before you start to lose detail.
Really? Can they be safely stripped even after applying varnish?
I haven't had any problems. I usually use L.A. totally awesome from the dollar store.
LA?
