One thing that stands out to me about the EX that I don't think was mentioned much in the video was how watery it is compared to original markers, or at least the metallic green. It seemed to flow everywhere with the slightest touch and it takes quite a while to dry
I used to think gundam markers were blotchy unusable wastes of money, but recently after getting the airbrush tool for them. (To use with the ex chrome) it's actually vastly improved the coverage and consistency with the markers overall. So I hope you revisit this topic while using it 1 day.
I don't have much using gundam markers but one of the things I do that helps with have a better consistency is not to make the tip of the marker touch the surface. 1. Once it's start to pour the color raise the tip a little. 2. The capillary action will do the trick to get a better result in the consistency. *note some colors will work better than others.
Great review, keep up the good work. Your reviews are detailed and to the point. I awaited more reviews and hope you keep making them for years to come.
Just discovered your channel and I love it. Too many people pass up on gundam markers and as a hand painter some of the details work I can do with them on small parts is just amazing. Great tools and awesome channel!
Thank you so much! And yeah, Gundam Markers -- especially these new EX ones -- are a Godsend for detailing or sometimes when it's just a little patch of a single color. Hope to see you around the comments:)
There actually is a metallic gold marker the GSI Creos makes that comes in a full set of metallic Gundam markers. I used it to make the yellow bits of my Hazel Custom gold as well as painting in thruster details and it worked great!
I think that gold one can be bought loose too, unless you mean there's yet another one, in which case I'd be super curious to try out. Have you tried the Tamiya X-12 Gold Leaf marker? You can't go back once you've tried that amazing thing
@@HobbyClubhouse I'm actually very curious. I saw some pictures of this advanced set with a gold that looks different to the gold which can be bought loose. However, I also found some images of the same set with just the regular gold you can buy separately. There's a video on youtube called "THE GOLD MARKER?", you can see a different gold marker within that advanced set, while if you google "Gundam marker advanced set", you will either find the same set with the regular gold or you will find the same set with that other gold. From what I can see, the only difference between the two gold is that one of them has a gold and black lid and one of them only has gold on its lid. Update: I found out that the sold separate gold marker has the code "gm-200", and the one from "THE GOLD MARKER?" has the code "gm-166" on it, meanwhile some of the pictures of the same set has the "gm-167" gold included instead.
@@kyoraku1149 I see now that the gold-capped GM-167 marker has its own name called "Red Gold", so it seems to be a distinct thing. Very odd... I can't find GM-200 though in my old 2015 catalogue nor the poorly documented Mr Hobby site. Man, I can do a whole video just for gold markers at this rate...
@@HobbyClubhouse how does tamiya marker compared to the gundam marker ? In your opinion which one is preferable ? especially on the gold and silver color
The silver of the EX Gundam Marker is smoother and definitely better than the already-good Tamiya silver. The Tamiya gold doesn't have a true equivalent and there's only the ugly regular Gundam Marker gold. The Tamiya white is really glossy and still doesn't coat evenly. Other colors like Tamiya's plain red and blue are also glossy and give a more even coat than Gundam Markers. But more importantly, the Tamiya markers are enamel paints, so they work well on top of laquer paints
Been using the regular metallic set and I only ever use it on tiny details due to the blotching and streaking. Thanks for reviewing this since I didn't even know there was an EX and might grab some.
thanks for the video, gotta try these new ex markers sometime. I feel like the new ex metalic green would be fine if u just use them for eyes / camera / scopes like i do. also i agree with you that they need to make the gunmetal marker a standard release and no apart of a set
Hi good day. I want to ask a question again: Are you familiar with DSPIAE Soft Tipped Acrylic Markers? I have a problem with Hasbro Studio Series 86 Optimus Prime. The item came with a QC paint issue in the eye. It wasn't fully painted. It's baby blue/sky blue color. Do you think it can be easily fix by putting over a DSPIAE MK-11 Sky Blue marker over it or do I need to remove the existing paint by Hasbro and redo the color on all surface? If there's a Gundam Marker that emulates the same sky blue/baby blue color, do you know which one? And do I need to apply a clear top coat over the applied acrylic from DSPIAE Marker? I hope you can answer right away. Thanks
They can be cleaned off with alcohol, so chances are, you'll already have some at home. It takes a bit of rubbing but they do dissolve the paint. Alternatively, you can scrape it off if you pick at it very carefully with something not too hard like a toothpick
Im not feeling well after my second vaccine so ima lay in bed and binge watch your videos and a few others modelers like miscast and black magic craft and miniack
For silver nothing beats a molotow they come in multiple tip sizes and are also a couple bucks cheaper than a single gundam marker well worth it they're known for being great they've benn the "silver" standard of silver markers for years
Are there any sites that carry all of the EX markers? I have only ever seen New White and Shine Silver. The closest hobby shop to me only carries a few Gundam Markers, and they won't special order anything.
When all else fails, 1999.co.jp will have it, but you'll have to pay a bit more for shipping and also wait for them to come from Japan. Otherwise, they've been a good company to buy from
I still dont get what they are for. Are they just for adding a bit details or is it actually for fully painting the whole whole gunpla? Cause I see a lot of people use the black one just to add some visibility and neat details for those parts that arent very noticeable
They are good for small details like head cameras. If you want to paint the whole kit though, they sell an airbrush specifically for Gundam markers. If you use the markers as they are to paint a whole Gundam, in my opinion it looks horrible and the surface is uneven.
Hi I just found your video and I am planing on getting some gundam markers. Now the ones I am going after are for doing the eyes camera and scope on weapons because I have trouble placing small stickers down. I have seen 2 markers pens the gundam ex green and the mr hobby gm 09 eye green Marker. I just wondering which one I should get to do the eyes. At the moment I am doing the hgac gundam wing kits and then the first 4 witch from mercury kits but I need a green Marker.
Beginner here what should i use for covering the awful nub marks on unicorn gundam titanium finish, the ex white or the normal white the one who will blend to the color of titanium white im confused cant decide which one will blend please help
For the titanium finish's white, neither are super ideal, but the EX white will always be better than the standard white. It's good enough to cover up small spots
Actually, that red is a good match for the Justice -- though it would be quite hard to paint over lots of big surfaces, and it might look bumpy and uneven like in the video
after painting with these colour markers, can you panel line on top of them? if so, which kind of panel liner can be used without removing the existing paint?
Not sure if you can. You might try to apply gloss paint after using the marker, then apply panel lining in the gloss surface. I personally haven't tried it, but might try it on some extra parts later.
Most top coats you can buy will almost surely dissolve the Gundam Marker paint and make a mess. If there's a water-based top coat, maybe it might work, but I wouldn't hold too much hope. The Gundam Marker's own top coat marker works though - there's a review of that too:)
Yes, some clog up for me. The EX white is excellent-had to use a lot for the HG Hi Nu's stock gunmetal colors (no apologies, I have no other way to paint, and it makes me happier than leaving them unpainted.) The EX silver is very shiny indeed-in my opinion the non-EX shiny silvers are good (agree to disagree) but I will keep using the EX on my loved models when I want to highlight certain details in silver. All in all, good experience with these, though I do not have them all (EX Dark Green-beautiful IMHO, but a bit messy-EX White x2-one clogged up-and EX "Super Shiny" Silver.
Hm, it depends on what you need. There's a new(ish) box set that's called the Gundam Fine Edge Set 2 which comes with small tips -- that one is quite a good set. You can even pull out the tip and change the normal type in if you like. That box is a really nice set with a good selection. But getting them individually is good too to get exactly the colors you need. I've found I use the green one and red one much more than the blue one. They're about the same price either way so you won't loose money with either choice as long as the colors are useful to you
Okay. So... How do you use the EX markers? I've never touched a gundam marker before; standard, or EX line. Out of box (or bag), when you open the cap, there's a little white thing. Do I just pull it off or is something supposed to be coming out?
You can get a small dish or anything where liquids won't sleep through. Then you press the white tip onto it. It'll go into the body a bit and some ink will be drawn out. Go give it a try:)
The X-20a would work -- or even just regular rubbing alcohol from a pharmacy. Definitely not the X-20 though. I've been told levelling thinner is good too, but I haven't tried that for myself, so I can't be 100% sure
there's a new EX gundam marker release by the name of XGM100 chrome silver, currently it's been popular in the Japanese social media. so I was wondering will you be reviewing it when it released globally ?
@@HobbyClubhouse Yes! I'm thinking of the most efficient way (the least painting time) and the most secure way (not damage the paint surface), it's all deepening on the clips.
Uh hello mr. clubhouse! First of all thank you so much for these informative videos, i just discovered you recently and ive been binging your videos since. Especially all about these sort of topics on painting (like the ex chrome silver). But.. as a newcomer to painting gunplas, i have one question that's been nagging on my mind; what would you do if you want to paint joint parts? I want to try painting the entry grade rx-78-2 in ways that is the original Gundam 0079 anime accurate, which is to say white joints. If i were to paint those joints on the elbow on knees, there would be a risk of scraping off the paints while posing it wouldn't there? I really hope there is a solution to such problem. Thank you!
Thank you so much, glad you found the channel:) For your question, there are two big challenges. White paint is itself super hard to put on and even the EX one is still quite uneven and never covers up the bottom plastic that well. Not really sure there's an easy fix to that. I haven't had any success myself... The second challenge is the scraping-off problem which is sort of fixable in some cases. You'll need a tool to sand down the parts like maybe some rough sandpaper (400 grit or a bit lower) or maybe a metal file if you work gently. You want to sand down the walls on the white parts a little bit so they don't touch the gray part as much. It's much harder to do with the elbow, but this is generally how builders keep joints from running off paint (though it still happens to even very advanced builders, so it won't ever go away 100%)
thank you for the reply! hmm.. i see i see! i think the sanding down the walls on the connecting white parts could be a great solution! fortunately the joint this time is very simple so doing the thing doesn't sound too hard. if it were something like a ball joint i bet that would be an even larger problem. and thank you so much for the information! i really do enjoy how thorough your videos are, and i'm always looking forward to videos with the topic of any sort of customizing! whether it's painting or modifying/fixing, that is my favorite type of content from your channel so far. any way to level up my gunpla skills is always so helpful!
Try splurging out a bit of paint onto a pallet and use a good quality brush to apply. Much nicer finish. The tips are rubbish for painting. Also the green ex is perfect for eyes when the stickers go wrong, again, use a brush.
Hm, it does seem not many online stores have all of them yet. If all else fails, you can get them from 1999.co.jp, though you'll have to pay a little for shipping
I've been wanting to do that too. I've been having trouble getting the airbrush system to behave consistently enough, which is itself a whole video when I figure that out... :)
One thing that stands out to me about the EX that I don't think was mentioned much in the video was how watery it is compared to original markers, or at least the metallic green. It seemed to flow everywhere with the slightest touch and it takes quite a while to dry
this was the best review of gunpla markers I watched so far. Thank you so much !
That k you so much! Very glad it was useful to you:)
Popping in to say the metallic silver EX marker is ridiculously nice and very fun to use and add slight shiny details.
I used to think gundam markers were blotchy unusable wastes of money, but recently after getting the airbrush tool for them. (To use with the ex chrome) it's actually vastly improved the coverage and consistency with the markers overall.
So I hope you revisit this topic while using it 1 day.
Fantastic video. Just what I was looking for! Thank you. I hope GSI decides to sell a whole set of EX markers in the future.
I kinda want that too because a lot of people are having a tough time buying these loose ones

Once it's start to pour the color raise the tip a little. 2. The capillary action will do the trick to get a better result in the consistency. *note some colors will work better than others.
I've never tried that, gotta test that out
love the comparison. i always look back whenever i'm thinking which to get
thats a very straightforward and clear review for the markers. thumbs up for this video. Keep it up!
Thank you so much! Hope it helped you pick out the markers you wanted:) I'll definitely keep going
I earned knowledge from this markers,with this i wont take a mistake when buying them thanks to review love the comparisons
Thank you so much! It really can be frustrating because information on them everywhere is quite unclear:)
This is the most informative video I've got about EX markers, absolutely amazing! You earned a subscriber ♥️
Thank you so much:) Sure hope you can pick out the right marker for your builds
I really love your reviews! They answer every question I have and are really informative!
Nice detailed review, the test on the clear spoon was a great idea.
Thanks! White Gundam Marker paint have always been quite notorious for being quite thin, so clear surfaces are their worst enemy.
Great review, keep up the good work. Your reviews are detailed and to the point. I awaited more reviews and hope you keep making them for years to come.

if i had the standard metallic green how could i get a more clear tone without loosing the metallic shine?

So, heavy gun is 'black' in ex marker line up?
I suppose it's sort of like that. If you wanted to do something in all metallic colors, this would be the black color for that
@@HobbyClubhouse im a bit of dillema actualy to choose between metallic color or standart color for minor painting on figure rise standart faiz
For the Faiz I'd probably go with standard colors since his design only uses metallic textures on the silver areas so they pop out really nicely:)
What red color you recomended for the sword? So the just use standart black for minor detailing on the phone belt and sword hilt?

Yeah, they work fine with the airbrush system:)
@@HobbyClubhouse ok thanks for the information

Could you make a video on how they perform with the airbrush system? Im very interested
I've been wanting to do that too. I've been having trouble getting the airbrush system to behave consistently enough, which is itself a whole video when I figure that out... :)
May be a good upgrade from metallic sharpie
I've never used metallic colored sharpie markers, I wonder what their texture is like. They probably stay on really nicely though
"Cabbage Green" 🤣
Moral of the story, buy an airbrush 😂
