I'm about to start painting Cthulhu Wars The Windwalker Expansion. The models are all in a white plastic with a subtle hint of blue, it's a neat color. Hard to see here, but this is what the figures look like:



I was thinking a cool look would be to simply paint a few highlights and colors here and there, no primer, and then wash the things in a blue-ish version of X19... Trouble is, I don't know if Tamiya makes colored versions of X19, I've only tried X19, and one other acrylic paint that was so watery as to be almost unuseable.

Does Tamiya make a thick, syrupy blue wash?

Any ideas on how to take, for example, a GW wash and "thicken" it and make it less hydrophobic so that it would adhere to unprimered plastic? The black in X19 is pretty pronounced, so I was thinking it might not work well to say drop in a bit of blue into the X19 smoke, to "blue it up" a bit...

X23 (clear blue) is the one I'm going to buy and try.
