Nice. When I started to tig, I wast very good. I never had anyone help me, I just bought a welder and started welding. Now I am pretty good at it, and taught a friend, and his were nice like that the first time. It just takes patience, a comfortable steady hand holding the torch, and uniform filler. Looks very nice though.
