A lot of these are pretty sloppy, and all of them have shiny paints that jsut make them look cheaply done. Though this is really ana rt where practice makes perfect

Your Ermac looks good though, what'd you make him out of?

They are not as shiny in real life. The camera exaggerrated that. The are kinda glossy because I sprayed them with a finishing spray so that they can be fully poseable. And if you think they are sloppy then that's ok because I like them just the way they are. And I think I am improving with each figure I make. Ermac is made from a magneto figure.

Magneto, really? Never would've guessed.

Anyway, just curious, what kind of paints do you use?

You should try using Testor's. It's honestly top of the line stuff. Just make sure you get flat instead of gloss. It doesn't need sealant and it looks damn good. You can get it at any Michael's or hobby shop

Also, try using techniques like drybrushing and wash to give shading. It could really add depth to your figured., it seems you've already got a steady hand for painting, so just try fine tuning the paint itself
