The main reason that I'm into this hobby at the moment is putting together the buildings. In the past I've always used testors enamal paint. Now I see out other paints, which I believe are acrylic. Could I just buy regular "painter's" acrylic paint and water it down? It's about the same price as the enamal is (oz for oz), but with it being watered down, it would go much farther. <br />Also, if I can do this, what ratio or water to paint should I use? Or should I guess and try to get it as close to the Floquil paint consistancy as I can? <br /> <br />Thanks in advance for the help <br />Kevin
