Hey,
I just got some resin parts for the first time, and I have no idea how to paint it or work with it. Any tips?

most model paints work on resin the same way they work on plastic kits. Just be gentle handling it, and sometimes you might need to sand the edges lightly.

Before working on it you'll need to wash the resin parts to clean off any mold release agents on the parts. Depending on parts fit you might need a filler putty to fill in gaps.

Don't mean to hijack orichalcon's thread, but I have a question pertaining to this subject....is it better to paint the pieces unassembled or assembled?

Depends on what you're comfortable with. You'll want to prime the pieces either way.
