When doing squads I get the bits off the sprue. Clean em up , mold lines , drill gun barrels e.t.c. Then part assemble , legs onto base torso and head. Then I generally will paint it up to a basic standard. Then put the arms and weapons on and finish painting. Basically the idea is to not block details with the arms and weapons , like the eagles on space marines chest, or faces of guard that are behind guns.
