a FEW light coats, not a really heavy one as your first, and the red hood is a stupid idea...sorry but yeah

hmmmm... You need to put a light primer coat on, and then light color coats. You may be holding the can too close to the body if it is bubbling.

And I agree that the red hood will be a bit silly. Stay with the style of the cameo. It was a deluxe model back in the fifties, and had class. If you do red and black, research cameos online and see where their two tones are painted...

this is only the first layer.
lol...

Ok, with paint, your first layer should be such a fine dusting that you can hardly notice it, the second should be the slightest bit more, you should aim for 8 coats, it looks like you have done about 30, what you have done is sprayed it all on too thick, you rushed the paintjob basically, you need to take your time, leave a few hours between coats, and coat as finely as possible.

read some tutorials.
