I got my friend to paint his first mini, but he's convinced it came out terribly. Would you all mind helping me convince him otherwise?

For a first time painting, it's really, really good.

It looks dope

Tell your friend to shake the primer a bit more before priming models and maybe get a bit t slower with short bursts. It removes the spackles you can see on his upper part

This is good for early days. First at bat is rarely a home run. This is a solid double at least. Tell him to keep on keeping on. Gets better with practice.

What's the basing material that he used?

Army Painter battlefield grass... That he applied at first with a good brush and superglue.
Although I do kinda like the swampy marsh look it gave off

It really does look amazing. Kudos to your friend. While the "3" didn't come out perfectly it adds character to the armor, and the rest of the model looks spectacular.
