Pick what army looks nicest to you, most easily one that GW still carries most of the models for (Orcs, Lizardmen, Skaven, Vampires,Ogres)
Though if you want to hunt for OOP models for Bretonnia or Tomb Kings go right ahead. Some stuff has been repackaged with round bases now, so you may need to figure out the right sizes for big things. Once you pick something get the leader and core choices you want, then expand from there. 1d4chan has plenty of tactics pages for 8th ed if you want more detailed army advice, but really it's fairly easy to build an army if you just buy and paint it bits at a time.
The real hard part is finding people to play with, especially someone experienced enough to help teach you.
You're not in OKC are you? Maybe a proper opponent will motivate me to paint my Empire

How common are Empire models? I really dig the flamboyant aesthetic. Also, What's OOP and OKC?

Most of it's still around, both on the GW site and on Ebay, the few things you can't still buy directly ( militia, knights, non Dwarven cannons) are decently common online or can be proxied with historical game minis or other custom stuff.
OOP: Out Of Print, stuff that GW themselves no longer manufacture, such as the aforementioned knights.
[Spoiler] And I was asking if you were in the Oklahoma City area to see if we could play eventually [/spoiler]
