What color primer to use? (lemmy.world)

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.

I primed my Legion starter set white, and painted it with mostly Army Painter Speed paint 1.0. Only Vader was primed dark grey.

This is what it looks like.

Did you use any washes or anything?
