How to paint Gundam Marker Vol 03: Realistic finish with weathering marker







Step 3 -Realistic finish with weathering marker


Machines always used have dirt or soot on them, or their painting starts to peel.
So reproducing this kind of realistic damage, you can get a more lively finish on your model.
Try to observe actual aircraft or vehicles and study what sort of stains they have.
However, you should not make your model too dirty.
Don’t go over the top with weathering your model, do it in moderation.


  • For painting / Water based (Wipe off type)
  • For painting / Water based (Paint type)
  • For painting / Water based (Paint tapered type) These 3 types of markers have different features. Read the explanation on the box thoroughly before usage.



-Water Based wipe off-

Wipe off type paint can be wiped off after drying. Wipe off in a cool way using a cotton bud, etc.
Rubbing dried paint on with a cotton bud, etc. makes an interesting effect, too.

Sooty stain effect Soot black


muddy stain effect Mud Brown



-For painting/water based(Paint type)/Water based(Paint tapered type)

Markers for painting/water-based markers (paint type) can be used for overlapping
without dissolving the base coat. Tapered type has thinner pen point,
so it’s most suitable for detailed weathering painting.
Note that you cannot wipe it off after it has dried.
