They look pretty bad in the pictures so can't imagine they are much better in the flesh.

Nice job mate, but as Generation says they could be flatted back a bit. Takes a wee while to get the hang of it!

good for a first attempt mate ive seen a lot worse from older people lets put it that way!

next time prime them properly let them dry out for a few days , fill any imperfections and re prime , then paint and laquer - thats putting it in a quick form theres a lot more to it but a good finish can be very acheivable with a lot of time and patience
