Its my first time spray painting so after I took the picture noticed the right side needed another coat or 2 . Im excited at how its coming along sadly the waiting for paint and coats to dry took most of my time :/

It looks good so far. I recommend having a good light source when painting so that you can see if it needs another coat or two. What paint were you using? Judging from the picture, it looks like you have some minor orange peel. Don’t skimp out on the coats. Give them a nice even coverage. Also, be sre to check your parts before building. Don’t build the kit and on,y just then realize that the paint needs another coat. That will save you a lot of trouble in the future. Don’t be impatient. Let the paint sit for a day or two before building.
Im using an apple red gold peeled on the paint by accident but i took care of it by giving it a couple of coats and letting it cure.Also I was painting in the pitch dark so it was hard for me. But thanks for the tips. its my first time painting a kit so I really appreciate all the info . I see you pitch in a lot on other builds. It great to have a person who helps out the new guys like us. Thanks 😀
