I must agree with you there, If I am spraying enamels I prefer using xtracolous but I mainly spray Vallejo model air paints nowerdays. These don't need thinning and tend to dry a bit slower than the old aeromaster acrylics I used to use. If they still dry a bit fast for your liking you can get a retarder that slows down the drying process. I hope you will be entering our comp :D

Another nice build - I also have this kit in my stash, looks like a nice one to put together. Thanks for sharing.
