    Painting - leave on sprues, paint then assemble, paint complete?

    Hello all,

    I'm still largely brush painting, but have a cheapy airbrush to experiment with too.

    I'm curious, what do you think produces the best results with your models: assembly then paint, or paint then assemble, or even paint on the sprues first?

    I've tried them all, I find painting when assembled is best, though it is tough to paint those finer details - curious on what you all do.
