I usually lay down the liquid mask in 3-4 coats hairdrying in between and then leave to dry over night to make sure.

When painting I just lay the paint in thin coats, hairdry in between and then keep going.

This procedure works really well for me and hopefully might help you a bit.

Keep up the practice and you'll be flying in no time, post a few pics up of any scrap work you do and we'll be able to see how your getting on and offer any tips as appropriate.

youtube is a really good start for looking at how to's and i really like the airbrush tricks tutorials by Tony D.

good luck
+1 on all the above
Also check out Jon's how to guides on the rcs graphics worx site, well worth a look
