hey guys, i've gotten myself a bottle or Mr Color paints, thing is it dries too quickly for any handpaint work. so how do i thin em down? i've tried normal thinner, but it just dries up too quickly also? can i actually just pour thinner into the bottle of paint to make it thinner? or is there another way? thanks in advance smile.gif

speaking of primers, is it possible to handpaint your primers on? or are the ones in bottles strictly for AB only?

ah.. i see. thanks for the input guys. i normally sand my kits before i paint, but thought i'd try priming to minimize troubles. looks like spray can for me until i get my AB biggrin.gif
