Look good. Couple coats of krylon flat clear coat will take the shine off

Those will hunt just fine. If you ever want to tone down a paint job you can do a "wash". Take raw umber, water it down and brush it on.

Not a dumb one at all but yes. Its in the brown spectrum. Washes are basically taking a dab of acrylic and mixing with water to thin it
out to where its just tinted water.
It can help tone down colors a bit.
Here's a video that explains it.
