Model car paint question?

Question

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

Answer 1

I always paint first.Minor touchups are easier for me than masking&painting.

Answer 2

If your painting 1st, don't rush yourself... you might get a part mixed up if your not careful.

You may paint afterward as well... but you will need to cover parts you don't want to paint.

Good luck and if you need anymore help visit a local hobby shop near you. They should be able to help you out:
