You can see several mistakes here that I have to correct later - the olive drab overspray for one, the spot on the stabilizer where the masking tape pulled some of the paint off as well. I am going to apply some sanding sealer to the bottom wing fillet area to try to smooth out some of the gaps. This thing is supposed to fly but I can't look at a poorly finished area, especially after seeing everyone here magnificent efforts.

Time and experience are probably the two biggest factors for the quality models you see. Time, in that you can't rush certain things. Paint needs time to dry, etc. Mistakes will happen. You'll learn more trying to fix a mistake than if everything goes absolutely smooth. Take a look at my Piper Cub. Lot's of opportunities for me to learn on that build. Even when everything goes right, evaluate what you have done and what to do to make it better next time. I probably spend more much time thinking about how to build a part as I do building it. Finally, the most important thing is to have fun.
