Hi,
This is my first post here, I read the FAQ - especially the part on different types of paint over other types of paint but I couldn't find the exact answer to my predicament.
Basically I think I may have done something bad. I undercoated my model with white spray (not thinking, hold on this is acrylic paint) then airbrushed over it with enamel. I have used acrylics a lot in the past due to the Warhammer hobby but now I have started building real world models I am using thinned enamels.
Is this usually ok? The enamel went on fine and the finish is great - nice flat and even. However I was wondering how long I could expect to wait until the enamel dries. At the moment I can wipe it away with some white spirit on a cotten bud (after 3 hours).
If it helps the paints used are:
Citadel skull white (like I normally used with Warhammer) Xtracolor (Hannants) Gulf Army/Marines sand
I have no idea how long the xtracolor enamels take to dry and cure so anyone with experience please give me an idea. Also Revell, Humbrol enamel dry.cure times would be great.
Yours
Tony
