Will take 12 months to dry properly
I know you Acrylic guys struggle going over to oil because of the drying time LoL You use liquin with your oils to speed up the drying proses, works great.

Guess i'm lucky because I started on oils, never used acryl but want to change because oils have become too expensive for me. Any advice and tips for me? I'm used to working slow because of the oil...

I wouldnt say I'm an acrylic expert I tent to mix it all up with everything aha... what I love about acyrlics is the fine details you can get with acrylic ink and the loose washes. Acrylic inks are great for detail, if you havent used them get some! very watered down acrylic but strong color, just like ink
