Alright buddy I can tell you are inexperienced. You need to listen to me.
The first thing for a good paint job is making sure your material is clean. Sand the metal really smooth. Use some windex to clean the plastics.
You may be tempted to buy a can of spray paint, but if you want it to look great and last more than a week, you are gonna need some premium paint
Go to your local hardware store and go go the paint desk. Those guys work the paint section all day. Ask for a mix of pink and clear primer. Tell him you want a shot of black in it too, that way he knows you're a pro. He will mix it up for you and send you on your way. It shouldn't be expensive either.
Painting technique is important too. Get some good quality brushes. Not the type your wife's son uses to paint watercolor. You want some real brushes. Made from the fine hairs of naked mole rats. The boys at the paint desk at home depot will sort you out. Tell em Taryl Dactel sent you.

A squatting slav, or Stalin, or maybe a shipping container instead.

Pic related is all you need. Did you know that shipping containers have withheld multiple hits from the A-10 warthog? They are extremely strong yet still light. That makes they the perfect structure to hold back the water from crushing you. They are very inexpensive since old worn out ones are no longer wanted. just cut a hole in the side and install some glass to make a viewport. Bring along some imitation crab meat for lunch. It's great stuff.

Do you expect to live off of that little imitation crab meat? You need another container full of it.

If you're making a bunker of multiple shipping containers, it would actually be feasible to construct a collapsable metal frame that supports the inside of the container while you pour reinforced concrete around it. You'd then remove the frame and put it into the next container, both making a container bunker that is strong and one that is not obsoletely reinforced with steel around the container.

Everyone who wants to buy a container should do so! Follow your dreams and ignore the haters. Your initiative will be rewarded with success!

Numerous containers survived direct hits from 30mm A-10 "Warthog" cannon during the Iraq war. The springy corrugations dissipate energy and the projos bounce off. The immortal Corten steel shells last centuries even without paint, which is only decorative. The US Navy has a fleet of containers at the bottom of the Marianas trench where they dock submarines made from containers for underwater replenishment. Hawaii successfully used lava flow to encase containers to make attractive tourist lodges. Transatmospheric scramjet powered containers have been developed into launch platforms for smaller containers to be used in the post-Brexit EU space containerstation. North Korea replaced their old dug shelters under mountains with containers painted like mountains. (The insides are painted with cute anime characters to boost morale.) Elon Musk prototyped an electric container to replace the Tesla since the container is more aesthetically appealing than the car and has a lot more battery room. The mayor of Detroit has decided to replace his decaying city with containers. The old buildings will be demolished and the rubble hauled off in other containers, loaded onto rafts made of containers, and shipped to China via the St. Laurence seaway where it will be ground up and the metal residue used to make more containers. US Navy SEALS stealthily infiltrate enemy ports using containers cunningly disguised as containers. Israel is solving the Palestinian problem by storing them in containers. (Germany tried to solve the Jewish problem using wooden freight cars, but the container hadn't been invented yet.) Donald Trumps border wall will be easily affordable if built from containers. Any Beaners who slip in by other routes can be detained in containers then trucked to Beanland where containers will be donated as housing.

Have you considered burying a shipping container? You know, one of those big rectangular steel crates they use on ships. They're really cheap and basically fucking ideal for something like this.
