imo, you can make a NG kit look good. i have a NG blitz gundam and it looks pretty good, there are some shortcuts i took in painting so its not the neatest ie the purple. it just needs a good amount painting to do all the details. though is still wont solve the general lack of movement in the kits.

What top coat are you using? If it's a flat coat, you sprayed too much and too close. One trick I like to do is to warm up the can in a cup of very hot water. I recommend spraying at least 6-8 inches away from the part. And when you spray, don't spray directly on the part when you first press down on the spray can. May light passes with the can across the part.
Clears are difficult to spray out of the cans in comparison to colored paints as you don't get to see the change in color on the parts. All you get to see is that the part get wet - so it's important to mist on the coats the let the part dry and see if you achieved the effect. If not, do another light pass, wait and check. After you do this often enough, you'll learn how many passes it takes to get the desired effect. If the can starts to get cold, dunk it back in the hot water to warm it back up. This will help keep the paint particles smaller and you get a finer spray pattern and more consistency as the temperature of the can stays constant, if you keep dunking it to keep it at a constant temperature.
