Gundam markers ?

[Mr Stock]

This probably going to be a stupid question but what is a Gundam marker ?, I hear of them mentioned a lot in modelling circles, is it just a paint marker?, or like a sharpie permanenet in marker?.

If you do a Google search, you'll find suppliers, color charts, tutorials, etc..

I've a set, they are pretty darn cool.

They are acrylic paint markers which you clean up with 91%-ish alcohol.

Yep. Great for door/trunk lines, grills etc.

I took a look into your albums and there is a lot of really beautiful work there! I highly recommend that everyone take a look for yourself.

My daughter used lots of Gundam paints and fine-point pens for her Gundam Wing model kits (a sort of Transformer-type series of fantasy robot space ships from manga-style anime TV shows and movies). The pens are terrific for detailing panel lines, etc.

These are some Gundam markers,  as you can see, they are just markers with a fine tip,  they are basically the same as a Nano-Liner marker,  gundam is just a name given to them because they are marketed towards the gundam builders( is my understanding) ,  I will say that the gundam markers seem to work better than the Nano-Liner markers ive tried.

I use them for doing panel lines,  I find using them easier than trying to use a panel accent wash.
