I am not a fan of how the colour went on either, seemed averse to any join or panel line.
Then the paint I used dried at the airbrush nozzle while waiting for the first coat to touch dry for another coat.
In short I guess I just prefer the way aerosols cover and get in nooks and crannies in the first pass !
Yes its long term more expensive but I'll live with that for less faff !
I striped off the top coat, the undercoat is mostly intact, so I will just re-undercoat with Tamiya primer and then topcoat in due course.
I know what you mean. I was pulled into it the same, lured by youtube videos making it seem so easy. So many failed attempts were made to get it to work, and so much time was spent cleaning needles/nozzles afterward. Hats off to those that do it effortlessly - or seemingly so.
Have not given up yet, but until I get proficient I will limit myself to practicing on those that require a less than perfect finish.
