Assemble EVERYTHING- to quote Tony greenland- "If you can see it- you can paint it".

I used to paint and then assemble. Inevitably I had glue stains, marks, etc. After completing construction then painting my quality rose 100%.

Of course- certain model kits need to be built and painted in sub-assemblies. Vehicles with interiors, 251 half tracks, etc. Assemble as much as possible 1st is my vote-
