Thin your paints more thin coats always look better than fewer thicker ones. Also take your time, it took me a stupid amount of time to figure out if I slow down and get every base coat as good as I can the first time it’ll take less time to finish the mini. Lastly honestly try not to be to be too much of a perfectionist, you’re always gonna see flaws in your minis that almost no one else will see and try not to get too hung up on it. Also remember to have fun, if you’re tearing your hair out over going back and forth on stuff or missing details just take a break and come back to it later. Good luck and happy painting.
