Hey so i need some help with painting my knight.

I wanted to make this knight a Baron so i grabbed my codex to see what it was. Anyway I painted a base of zandri dust and the layered Ushabti Bone on top. But even after two coats i couldnt get it to look right, the paint always had brush marks. I tried nuln oil but that made it worse. my last ditch was another layer at ushabti bone. It still looks awful.

So i am in need of some major advice here. Am i gonna Have to strip my piece? Or is there a better paint?

I was going for House terryn for my knights by the way.

1. add water to your paint to thin it down before you start the process of painting.

2. few layers of really watered down paint(after you have shaked the hell out of the paint).

3. it could be that your paint needs a good shaking, blending.

What Tarval Said. Whit is hard to do. Might be easier to prime white, paint the white first, Then paint the blue over white. make your main color white, with blue over, rather than white over blue. If that makes since.

This is good advice. I would also suggest using masking tape for nice tight lines.
