AK Real Color Markers

I need to save up some money for these. They would certainly be time savers.

I’ll have to look at picking up a black. Got a couple of French tanks with that black border cammo that these would make quick work of.

To be honest, for a thin black line like that, the Playmarker might be better, just because of the difference in the tips. The Playmarker tips seem a bit easier to use for doing very thin lines due to their flexibility.

Haven’t come across that brand. Will have to see if they’re available over here.

They are by AK as well; see the Youtube link I posted above. They haven’t been released yet, but I expect they should be within about a month. The primary difference between the Real Colors markers and the Playmarker line (other then the colors themselves) is the tip - the Real Colors tips are “solid” whereas the Playmarker tips are flexible, almost like a paintbrush but with the very tip a solid point.

I thought about the AK Paint Markers for that same purpose myself. I used a Sharpie extra fine tip enamel paint pen for this project and that worked well enough. Although the Sharpie paint pens are gloss…

Ah right, I thought it might be a different manufacturer. Lots around. I’ll keep my eyes open. Thanks

A company called Decotime also do Alcohol based paint pens with two sizes of tip on each. I have purchased a box of 100 colours for £35 from a B&M Store but they can be bought in range of quantities.

Let us know how the Decotime work? I don’t think they are available in Canada.
