I started painting my AoBR SMs with the Dark Angels color scheme ; but when i was putting on the Dark Angels Green, there were brush strokes, bubbles, and uneven color. How do you solve these problems?

Thanks

Pat that askala, O-H-I hate this stupid state

Thin your paint out a bit to better the brush strokes. To cure bubbles you may have to much paint on the end of your brush. Uneven color sounds like you didnt shake the paint up enough or you have old paint and may need to get new. You may have bought the paint recently but it could have been sitting on a shelf for quite some time.

Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel, its just a freight train coming your way!

I'm new too but I have found out a few things thus far.

*If you went to a hobby shop and bought like... Testors? Throw that stuff out. The paint is horrible.

*I go over the same spot multiple times while it is still wet to get a super smooth coat.
