I'm a partial kinda guy, and it depends on the model in hand.

With units that I can get away with building completely before painting, i'll do it that way as I love building models, it's one of my favourite aspects of the hobby.

However with the IG Sentinel I'm currently building for example, it's only about half built. This means I can paint the driver, the inside of the doors and the cockpit before its put together and i will look far better than if I attempted to paint it once I assembled it all.
