Mr.Hobby GMS109 - Gundam Seed Basic Marker Set

Mr.Hobby GMS109 Model Marker Set – Gundam Seed Basic Set

The Mr.Hobby GMS109 Seed Basic Set was created for modelers working on kits from the Gundam SEED universe. It includes essential colors that match the original scheme of the series, making it easy to paint or adjust details without needing bottled paints or an airbrush. This set is suitable for both beginners and advanced modelers who want to accurately replicate the look of SEED mobile suits.

The markers are convenient to use, equipped with tips that allow both broad coverage and precise detailing. The alcohol-based ink adheres well to plastic, resists fading, and can be easily removed with the GM300 eraser marker or a cotton swab with alcohol if corrections are needed.

The Mr.Hobby marker series

The Mr.Hobby marker series is primarily designed for painting and detailing mecha kits from the popular Japanese Gundam franchise, but they are also suitable for other plastic models. Divided into sub-categories, the series makes it easy to find the right marker for each task. Filled with alcohol- or water-based paint, they adhere well even to bare plastic but can be removed when corrections are required. They can be used for painting parts, highlighting panel lines, or even adding weathering effects.

The colors are carefully selected to stay true to the Gundam series and correspond to the plastic tones used in Gunpla kits. They also align with the UG (Gundam Color) paint range.

Markers – a practical addition to the modeling toolkit

Painting markers are a convenient addition to any modeler’s toolkit. They are excellent for small touch-ups, quick fixes, or adding fine colored details such as switches and levers. Precision depends on the tip design – from broad strokes to ultra-fine lines. Special panel lining markers with very fine tips are also available. The paint can be enamel-based (like in some Tamiya products) or alcohol-based acrylics. Some markers even contain paint that produces a mirror-like chrome effect. While they do not fully replace paints or airbrushing, they are perfect for quick detailing work without setting up a full painting station.

Why choose the GMS109 set?

The Gundam Seed Basic Set is the perfect choice for fans of the SEED series who want to reproduce the iconic colors of their favorite suits. With carefully matched tones and ease of use, the markers are ideal for full painting, quick fixes, or highlighting details. This makes them suitable for both beginners and experienced hobbyists who want to save time and still achieve an authentic look.
