No, not outdated at all. My dad prefers to paint in pieces like this when he can. It is a lot less taxing on him (he will be 70 this year and has been in the game a loooooong time) and he ends up with better quality.
However, when painting metallic, you really have to have it fully assembled in order for it to look right. The paint on this truck has no metallic.
