Sorry, Artie. I don't think anyone noticed your question. Sometimes its better to start a new thread, so that people will notice it. At any rate, I know that Artisan mediums are intermixable with Cobra and Lukas Berlin. I have not used any of the fast dry mediums, but I understand that the Winsor Newton Artisan FDM is much faster than the one by Cobra. From what I've heard the Artisan one is usually too fast for most people. Hope someone can give you a more definitive answer.

First, Cobra hasn't a FastDry-Medium ...
There are Cobra PaintingPaste (what also dry 'faster'), and there oily PaintingMediums (one is for 'painting' and the other is primary for glazing, because it's too 'fatty').

• But the Cobra PaintingMedium has an artificial resin/harz ! -> so it dries faster and is superB & with a nice 'shine' (Artisan looks like [when dry] normal oilpaint from typ Talens Rembrandt)

Hope that helps ... The other things (minutes/hours/days) -> best test it self and PAINT ;-)
[but i think, when i look at the question-timestamp, it's gone and you know what you asked for ?!? ;-)]


EDIT: i think, what Crystal1 mean was Lukas Berlin Medium3 (FastDry), against the Artisan-one ...
-> but that one has an acrylic emulsion, so it dries very fast !!!
