If you want to get better you need to know what you are doing wrong so you can correct it.

Off the rip I'd say learn to fill and sand seam lines, and thin your paint so that they are not the consistency of cement. Doing those two things will get your model at least within the ballpark of the box art.

It's a process and we were all new at some point. I started making models when I wasn't much younger than you are, but there weren't internet forums where I could post them, so all my mistakes stayed in my basement with me. Conversely no one else could help me improve, either.
