I agree with Steve. Many modellers, when first starting out, will dash out and buy a huge, complex kit, thinking this will look great when done. Unfortunately, it's somewhat of a waste of time, money, a waste of a good kit, and a good way to become quickly disheartened. It's rather like wanting to learn to drive, and asking to have the first lesson in a F1 Ferrari !!
Start small and uncomplicated, in order to become familiar with the way parts are presented, how they might need trimming and clean-up before use, how they go together and so on.
The basic skills can be learned here, and built upon and developed, from filling joints, sanding, to good paint finishes. Forget about adding detail, weathering, and so on at this stage, that's in the future - get the basics right first, and this should lead to enjoyment and satisfaction in the future.
