Either the hobby shop I am getting my Humbrol/Tamiya paints from is not
storing them correcting, or I have stuffed up the paints.

That said, has anyone attempted to use art paints that are oil based?

All the time for figures or washes.
Thinned with mineral spirits they dry a little faster, but not by much.
Extended with shellac makes them easier to 'move around' but adds drying
time.
