Mr.Hobby GMS121 - Gundam Metallic Marker Set

Mr.Hobby GMS121 Model Marker Set – Gundam Metallic

The Mr.Hobby GMS121 Metallic set was developed for modelers who want to enhance Gundam kits with striking metallic colors. It includes markers in basic metallic tones that make it easy to paint, touch up, and highlight model details. With these markers, models gain depth, shine, and a more realistic appearance.

The markers are equipped with tips that allow both broad applications and precise detail work. The alcohol-based ink adheres well to plastic, resists fading and abrasion, and mistakes can be corrected with the GM300 eraser marker if needed.

The Mr.Hobby marker series

The Mr.Hobby marker series is primarily intended for painting and detailing mecha kits from the popular Japanese Gundam franchise, but they are also useful for other plastic models. The markers are divided into several sub-categories to help users find the right tool for each task. Filled with alcohol- or water-based paint, they adhere well to bare plastic while remaining removable for corrections. They can be used for painting small parts, panel lining, or even applying weathering effects.

The colors are selected to remain faithful to Gundam kits and closely match the plastic tones used in Gunpla. They also correspond to the UG (Gundam Color) paint line.

Markers – a practical addition to the modeling toolkit

Painting markers are a convenient addition to any modeler’s toolkit. They are ideal for small touch-ups, quick fixes, or adding fine details such as levers and switches. Precision depends on the marker tip – from wide coverage 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 offer paint that produces a mirror-like chrome finish. While they don’t replace traditional paints or airbrushing, they are perfect for quick detailing work without setting up a full painting station.

Why choose the GMS121 set?

The Metallic set is a great choice for modelers who want to quickly and effectively add metallic finishes to their builds. The selected tones provide realism, shine, and contrast, enhancing both small details and larger elements. It is a versatile set, suitable for both beginners and advanced hobbyists alike.
