Brass models are much easier to strip the paint off if you screw up. Plastic? Well... you can't use nearly as aggressive of a paint stripper, and it is much more of a pain. I've used rattle can primers on metal models before. The red oxide ones are my favorite. Then coat with floquil (engine black should look fine) and then bake.
