I came up with a mix that works really well with Testors Acryl paints:

Use 4-5 parts of the flat clear medium with 1 part flat dark brown or
black paint and 1-2 parts Acryl paint thinner (NOT water), depending on
how thin you want the mix to be (the thinner is smelly, but not toxic).

It's like a wash that you spray over the model -- it will darken the
color of the model's paint slightly, and it makes dark lines when it
collects in the cracks and crevices of the model. Unfortunately, the
effect isn't reversible, so if you make it too dark, you'll have to
start over from the beginning.
