It's nothing wrong to mess up, when you're learning. I trashed more kits than I can count with both hands to be satisfied with the result.
Just post pictures, so that we can figure out what you are doing wrong and to give more specific advice.

I say, if the color you want is available in Cans, use the cans, as it's way easier to get good coverage and a thick enough coat that won't you won't polish through. It takes alot of coats with an airbrush, well at least thats what' i've noticed. Airbrushes are better off for detailing than at spraying huge areas with paint.
