In the past, I used enamel (humbrol and testors), but when I changed country... I forgot to bring my paints, (I will in my next trip)... but meanwhile... I had to buy new ones... and did a little bit of research... and found out that acrylic paints are more recommended for figures... so I went and bought Citadel acrylic paints (Games Workshop), which I plan to use in figures and details on vehicles. For vehicles I'm using spray enamel paints.

Now the question: If I use opaque varnish over an acrylic painted figure, will the resistance be similar to having used enamel??
