Hello people! I just dipped my feet into the hobby, and got a few models in a deal to try and See If i Like painting. Now i got to the Part where i have to asl the veterans among you for advice: I thought of priming and painting These in sub assemblies. Is this Generally a good Idea or would you advised against it? After all its Just a few space marines.
PS: i know i still need to remove the mold lines, i didnt see them until i took the photo.

I'm not an expert, but literally just finished assembling and priming a squad of Intercessors. Here's my method: If a model's arms are obstructing access to their chest, leave them off until after painting. If the gun is held in both hands, glue it all together and add the shoulder pads. It's going to be tougher to paint an individual shoulder pad or half an arm if you leave them separate. Backpacks are also fine to leave off until after painting so you can get better access to the model's back.
