(what kind of paints do you use???, I use liquitex soft body acrylics... they are still too thick though)
There is definitely a difficult balancing act to get your paints thin enough. You need to be watering down your acrylics just a little bit, but too much turns them into runny goop. Once you do it for a while, you'll find that sweet spot. The worst part is that it's different between different brands of paints!!
Personally, I use reaper and Vallejo paints. They're made for wargame miniatures (like warhammer or war machine) and I find they sit a little thinner on the card as a whole.
Good luck with your alters!!
