Model car paint?

Question

should i build the car then paint or paint before i build

Answer 1

Paint before assembly, and make sure you give it plenty of drying time and wear gloves.

I've tried the nail polish thing once. it turned out ok. You will definitely need an airbrush to apply it since brushing it on will look horrible.

Answer 2

you might want to build, then disassemble, paint, and then rebuild just so you know where all the nooks and crannies are. If you're pretty confident in yourself, paint it first. What kinda paint are you gonna use, buddy?
