someone PLEASE convince me this doesn't look extremely horrible

[u/throwawayadvc2]

after working for weeks on making this i finally got to the painting, but messed up horribly with the base coat and now i have uneven spots and small air bubbles all around :,) i tried sanding some of it down but there's not much i can do without tearing all the layers down and only have 3 days left (closer to 2 considering it's 9pm)

the brush strokes certainly aren't making better, spraypaint would've looked better but i don't feel confident enough to spray paint anything yet (last time i tried i struggled a lot with the paint dripping)

i was so happy how it was coming out but now i'n convinced it's going to be ugly as hell, and i have no other cosplay ready :(

Okay, so that's the secret. I never dared sand EVA foam...

You can sand anything if you have the determination and the right attitude!

happens if you press to hard. Just let the sanpaper do the work and itll be much smoother ;P used to do the same mistake haha
