Thinking of getting into warhammer, which paints should I get for Skaven? (self.warhammer)

I'm new to warhammer and do not own any paints, since I've been playing Total War Warhammer 2, I've enjoyed playing as the skaven so I was hoping to get the vanguard skaven miniatures, however I do not have the book that would tell me which paints to get. Which paints will I want for the skaven? And are there any cheap alternative paints that might also work well?

ok I ended up ordering some vallejo paints, one of my friends gave me a handy looking guide https://redgrimm.github.io/paint-conversion/ also ended up getting some citadel paints and shaders (guy at the melbourne warhammer store was quite the salesman)

looking forward to trying the paints out, will probably post how it turns out, mostly worried I'll mess up with getting the model out of the spline and accidentally cutting something off :^) wish me luck!
