Mr Hobby Gundam Marker Pour Type – Black GM-301P
Mr Hobby Gundam Marker GM-301P is a black Pour Type panel lining marker developed for highlighting engraved lines and recessed surface details on Gundam models. Rather than drawing along every line manually, the marker uses capillary action to carry its oil-based ink through the recessed details, producing clean, defined panel lines.
The black ink creates contrast between individual panels and surrounding surfaces, helping to emphasise the construction and mechanical detail of Gundam kits. It is particularly useful for bringing out the appearance of separate armour plates, joints and engraved surface features.
Pour Type Ink for Recessed Panel Lines
The Pour Type system allows ink to flow into engraved lines when the marker tip touches the model surface. This makes it easier to follow intricate panel patterns and recessed details without having to trace the entire length of each line.
Key features include:
- Colour: Black.
- Pour Type application: Ink flows into recessed panel lines through capillary action.
- Detailed shading: Adds definition to engraved lines and mechanical surface details.
- Controlled application: Apply ink by touching the marker tip to the required area.
- Correctable finish: Excess ink can be removed using a GM300 Gundam Marker Eraser Pen or a standard eraser.
- Suitable surfaces: Designed for unpainted and uncoated Gundam model surfaces.
How to Use the Gundam Marker Pour Type
The GM-301P marker is designed to make panel lining straightforward, particularly when working with detailed Gundam components containing numerous recessed lines.
- Prepare the marker: Tap the pen tip on paper to prepare the ink for application.
- Apply to the model: Gently touch the marker tip to a recessed panel line.
- Allow the ink to flow: Capillary action draws the black ink along the engraved detail.
- Continue as required: Touch the tip to additional areas to fill the required panel lines.
- Correct excess ink: Use a GM300 Gundam Marker Eraser Pen or a standard eraser to remove unwanted ink and tidy the surrounding surface.
Important Surface Compatibility
Use this marker on unpainted and uncoated model surfaces only. The oil-based ink may interact with painted or coated finishes, potentially merging with the underlying surface. It should therefore not be applied over painted or coated Gundam models.
For unpainted Gundam kits, the Pour Type application method provides a practical way to add black shading to recessed details while retaining control over placement and allowing unwanted ink to be corrected.
The GM-301P black marker is part of the Gundam Marker range from Mr Hobby and is intended specifically for defining engraved panel lines and mechanical surface details on unpainted models.
