To avoid glopping the paint, put a little thinner in the paint and paint one coat to give you a good base. Once that dries(wait 10 minutes just to be safe), paint a second coat to give a good coverage to the base. If it needs a third coat, then do it but make sure it's thinned out some.
Also, clean your figures before painting and before taking pics. Some look like they have dust on them and you wanna get that off.
thank you , very helpful...
