I finally built all the models in the set and now I need to start painting. I can't use spray paint and I don't think I can justify an airbrush just yet so for the primer coat I'm trying a really watered down white layer and hopefully I won't lose too much detail.

Thinning your paints is always a good idea.

Did you use a "normal" colour for the basecoat, or one labeled "primer" or something similar? Primer colours are designed to stick better to raw plastic.

Normal, I've not got a primer yet. I put some base colours down and a wash but I'm really struggling with highlights. This first model is definitely a tester.
