- Reviewing the new AK Interactive Real Colors acrylic paint markers. I test painting on some tank stowage, Gundam rifle, star trek part and a bit of a partwork model for good measure. In my opinion a very nice product for the right person and purpose.

@tested
It's always y nice to have unsponsored reviews. Thank you.
I wish it was sponsored, i'm going broke, but I am glad you enjoyed it, these markers are pretty great.
Good video Ian, I've ordered a couple small sets, they'll work great for small German squiggly camo, or peadot
Thanks Trent, yeah they would be perfect for that.
Great video, added to my want list lol
thanks and my apologies to your credit card.
DHL has mine ready to deliver when I get home from vacation. So excited to try these out. The gunmetal turned out exactly how I imagined. I only got the AFV sets but I did get matching lacquer paints to go with the markers. I see these being great for touch up and weathering. Side note, Uncle Night Shift's code works on AKs site as well so people can save money if they buy direct as well. Thanks for the video Ian.
What is Uncle KS's code? I will add it to the description. I think you will really like these markers.

@@PitstainHobbies I just bought these from AK with Uncle Night Shift's code for 75 Euro shipped to the US. The code I used was NIGHTSHIFT958. But I think it changes from video to video he does.
My local hobby shop just got these in , I was messing with some and liked how they looked. The box set is real nice . My local place is selling the set for 139 , and the individual markers for 3.99. AK is much cheap even with shipping to the states. Good review , BTW that C-10 sticker is pretty cool who makes them ?
Agreed, I just keeping finding opportunities to break them out, very handy markers. The C-10 sticker is of one of my best friends truck, I am pretty sure he had an artist render the design and possibly got the stickers from Sticker Mule where I get my stickers made.
Ian great vid I can see this as very handy👏
Thanks Andrew, hope you like them.
You should check out the new Sharpie Creative paint markers. Only 12 colors right now, and they come with a brush tip like these AK markers as well as a "bullett" tip which is not the old hard useless nub -- the bullet tip is actually a bit soft and offers a little flex
if you mean the Sharpie ones, I saw them and they look very nice.
@@PitstainHobbies Yep, I meant the new Sharpie markers
@@InvisibleAvenger They seem to be a good option for primary colors but Sharpie doesn't cater to the scale model community so that's likely most of all they will release other than maybe metallics.
i just ordered the set, i used their metallic markers and they are fantastic.
Enjoy,I really like these.
Ordered from Jadlem UK got them the other day really good
Glad you like them, I keep them handy for those little jobs that always pop up.
Thank for this review. Now I know I need them 😂
LOL, happy to help, nothing you can't do with a brush but they are convenient.
Was the 10.3 hours adjusted for the time zones? :D Very cool review. As a car and truck guy I see a few small sets I would look at getting. Thanks!
LOL no adjustment for UTC, Thank you and these would be great for painting small engine bits and interior parts.
@@PitstainHobbies thanks man. Subbed for more cool stuff!
@timcarson8146 thanks Tim I hope you enjoy!
Do you need to pump/ prime the paint in the marker before starting using it
@PorscheRacer61 No, zero priming, pull the cap and paint flows, I still shook them out of habit of course.
I don’t really see the advantage to brush painting yet…
@hacheyp I think this is more about convenience and speed.
You will want to try them. I got my set from Jadlam. I used paint pens for accessories before, which saves a lot of hassle setting up and cleaning the airbrushes and wet palettes, etc. Enamel washes work great with them. They dry very fast and don't pull off paint when you go over the layers like brushing would. They are just another fine detailing product.
Thanks, I will try these!
Omg! Sorry but this video has really irritated me!
LOL no need to apologize.
