Use matt varnish.
This will turn down all that shiny-shiny effect for sure.

Don't use this on transparent plastic parts like the cockpit though, or they'll turn white !

Too solve your problem, no. That is just acrylic medium (paint with no pigment), you need a a varnish. Your best bet is to pick up a can of Testors Dullcoat which is an extra matte varnish most often found in an aerosol spray can. That product and others like it will take care of your issue.
