apparently according to a comapny called clarus who make white boards and the pens: " The difference between dry erase markers and permanent markers is the kind of polymer used. Permanent markers use an acrylic polymer that helps the pigment stick to surfaces, while dry erase markers use an oily silicone polymer."

So I know you mentioned the Sharpie Paint-based markers, but I gotta re-emphasize them. Using Silver or Gold to panel line some of my kits makes them really POP! Really took my "easy detailing" game to the next level. And because it's liquidy, it spreads slightly over surfaces but has enough tension to itself to not completely run. Biggest gripe: Even if cleaning with isopropyl alcohol, it gets kinda smeary, so try not to goof!

I like exclusively use fine black sharpies for black detailing on my kits. I don't panel line my kits, but I go in with black for vents or facial details on Gundams. I find it has a very clean glossy look to it, and I personally have no problem wiping it away with my thumb. I've always had hands that are rarely ever dry, so perhaps my finger oils are a contributor to it. I've had amazing results with them and I highly recommend them for black detailing if you're wanting it to have a clean, glossy look. Be warned tho, if it ends up in a crease or crevasse you don't want it in... it ain't easy to remove. I've been using them for years and have had no issues with it, doesn't fade or damage the plastic. Other sharpie colors will fade tho, such as red or yellow. Great video!

I've just been using gel pens and fine liner pens as well. I think it depends on the brand and how much ink it releases. I kinda like the slight dirtiness it gives since, depending on the placement and it's messiness/staining, it gives a slight weathered or dusty/smoked coat like on vents. For white parts, it gives it a... slight use and not new rollout. But that's just me, We're all builders and have our own styles.

After trying couples of pens and markers, I say that the Sharpie fineliner and White board marker do the trick. The Sharpie is good when you panelining ledges, edges, etc... while the WB marker can fill the gap line pretty good and easy to clean(a wet tissue is a you need). But be careful, the sharpie is kinda slip on the plastic surfaces, so you might want to sand them a little bit. That's my experience, hope that it can help you guys at least a little bit.

I haven't gotten around to buying Gundam panel liners, but I tried a 0.5 mechanic pencil on my RG Wing Gundam Zero EW XXXG-00W0 a while ago, and it worked pretty well, but it was too light. I recently tried a blue ultra-fine tip sharpie "marker" on my RG 0-Raiser, and it worked sort of well? I had some problems with rubbing off the ink. I also tried a pale-green ultra-fine liner to line the GN sword II's and GN sword III from my RG 00 Raiser. It looked amazing, but it didn't stay long. I ended up using a light-green Sharpe Ultra-Fine tip liner on the swords, GN condensers, (you know those RG GN condensers are one solid dark-grey piece) and the GN drives and even though it was light green, it still ended up looking pretty amazing. I've been too scared to panel line my Nu Gundam without real panel liners, because I paid $70+ for it because of its unavailability in my location.

But if you can make it by mixing tamiya enamel with tamiya enamel thinner (if you use lighter fluid, it will evaporate so quick. Not recommend that. Unless to wipe off the excess) , and you can control how thick or thin the paint for panel lining. And you can make various color, not just black-brown-grey. Like red panel lining for trans-am/ destroy mode start up effect.

A liberal lil' coating of it all over the panels I wanna line, a 15-or-so minute wait, a quick scrup with some toilet paper and it don't come out looking half bad. Gives the nearby plastic a sort of smudgy effect, especially dependant of how many times ya coat it, and the lines themselves with how they tend to come out make it look as though it's dirt and oil's that seeped between the panels as opposed to the usual look panel lining tends to bring. I think it's pretty effective anyway :p

My brother is and I use the super fine sharpie markers. The name brand ones don't get the cheapies. I've had problems with the ones from OfficeMax and other business supply stores just get the sharpies. But have something with alcohol nearby to clean up any mistakes because that stuff will set permanent in your plastic if you don't get at it immediately.

When I got back into building gunpla I did not know how to penalize. I took a sharpie and I made a mess out of it but then I took alcohol and put it on a rag and wipe every single piece down. It came out okay but some areas look like it's been stained a bit. I also received some glitter varnish from a person that used it on furnitures but I did not want to use it on an expensive kit. So I took a older kit the '90s Gundam Wing endless waltz Wing zero rubbery wing and tried it on that piece. The part was already damaged so no real loss there. It gave it a scratched shiny look to it. Like it was in the Battle and some of the paint got scraped off. Especially in some of the damage parts.

Idk why many people use alcohol for GM01 & GM301. Rubber eraser is enough. It's cheaper, lasts longer & does not damage the plastic 🤷♂️

Honestly though if you're spending the money to get a bandai kit which ranges from 10-100 dollars why not just spend the extra 2-3 dollars to make it look good?

Which Wing Zero Custom kit is that? Or is it the Tallgeese Flugel?

Guys, so i use eraser from mr. Hobby. The problem is, when i tried to correct lines on colored parts, it kinda left some "marks", as it somehow became a bit pale compared to before. Is there any workaround this? Any tip for me?

I used artist's pens before (Micron, Copic). It worked fine but unless you have a very gentle touch it'll ruin the pen tip fast which is kind of a disheartening waste.

2B, 0.3 mechanical pencil would score higher imo. Prefer it over gundam markers cuz you can rub off mistakes more easily on bare plastic.

What is your opinion on using a water based 0.03 pen to panel line a chogokin macross?

idk why, but my fingers aren't very good at wiping away panel line marker ink lel. probably bcuz my hands sweat a lot. i end up using an eraser and then dusting everything away ehh. not the best, but it'll do with what i have.

I use a 0.05 unipin and it actually works fine. i couldn't find any gundam markers in the whole province where I live and online sellers charge too much so I just used a unipin
