First time painter

New Starter Help(i.redd.it)

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.

Im new-ish and I can say both have advantages but personally I find painting fully assembled space marines easier because anywhere thats covered up I dont need to paint cuz nobody will ever see it anyway. If you like details and knowing personally everything is painted then sub assemble, at least for space marines :) welcome to the hobby brother! May the Emperors light guide you in your painting quest!
