Is the model grainy/gritty, is that the paint or is that the picture?

If it's the model, then you have to strip and re-prime the thing unless you wanted it gritty. Gritty
models soak up a lot of paint and make it difficult to pick out detail.

If it's the paint, then I think your metals need to be smoother. If the primer is gritty that would explain
the metals and why it's hard to keep a smooth finish. If not, then I'm going to guess that your metal
paint is drying out while you're painting and so coming off unevenly.

How much experience do you have with washes and highlights? They could help bring out
the contrasts in your model.

Yeah what malfred said. I would also like to point out that all the smaller metal details should be brighter, cause the chains and 8 thing look camoflauged.

That looks great.

I personally like the grainy quality.

I would however give it another coat of the same or lighter colour to restore the sections and clarify the materials.
