Hello and welcome! For me, I prefer to assemble large structures first like the hull and conning tower and then paint. This makes it easier to hide seams where parts fit together. Also, I don't need to worry about glue ruining my paint finish if I paint after assembling. Every modeler has his own preference. Good luck!
