Those instructions look backward...it will be infinitely easier to color THEN build...

Spray paint sounds great for the base coat, but it'll paint right over all the lines that the kiddos are supposed to use. Unless you *want* them to be more creative. :)

Nice! If it has pre-drawn lines, I'd color it before assembly. If it doesn't have pre-drawn lines, color it after assembly so that the corners will match up with each other.

Post pics when it's done... or ban!

Decorate it with things from the spanish inquisition.
