Damn, that is super ugly. The paint isn't even smooth across the surface. You can see areas were there are blotches and crap.

why did you waste your time w/ something so ugly? Most likely the crappy paint job will degrade the value it could sell for on ebay.

gg man.

yeah, not too keen on the red. The silver though is quite sweet. It looks like you need a few more coats on the front of the red one. Looks like some black sticking through.

IMHO ew, should have left the X part as it was, or paint it a different color. The solid color doesnt look too great, as others said, maybe silver would be better.

No offense, but that is a really crappy paint job. It looks like you did little if any priming, you layered on the paint too heavily and too fast, and you didnt do any sanding inbetween layers.

Maybe you should either give up painting or practice on something a little less expensive until you get the hang of it.
