I want to buy this as a gift. Do you paint this model or is it already colored? Do I need to buy glue and paint also?

It is an unpainted and disassembled model kit. You have to buy hobby glue and different hobby paint colors.

Do you need to purchase paint and glue. Where do I purchase paint and what type of glue?

Paint and glue are not included. It doesn't specify the type of glue so any model glue should be fine. Same with the paint. Note that the model is gray but a number of seals are included.
