RG 1/144 Aile Strike Gundam - Finished Panel Line, Moving On To Detailing & Decals

Had just finished doing the panel lines on my RG 1/144 Aile Strike Gundam by applying the enamel wash technique.  Just thought I would post a little quick guide on how it was done...nothing too spectacular.  Hope to finish with this project by this weekend.

    How long do you usually wait for the enamel wash to dry before removing the excess?

    does it have to be lacquer-based paint? how about acrylic paints like tamiya?

    @AceAttorneyGundam: I ususally wipe away the excess after I finished inking the part. So not much wait time. The best thing about using enamel wash is that enamel paint is oil based, so it takes awhile for it to dry, so you have some time to clean it up.

    @JN: As long as the base paint is not enamel, you are good to go.
