Gundam Marker Plating Silver

Ms. Kino Kosaka tries out the 600 yen Gundam Marker Plating Silver on her YouTube channel

okay, she's speaking Japanese, so not understanding what's she saying might bug you -- though I think that just by watching you'll probably be able to glean some information.

Say what, there's an airbrush fitting to hold and draw paint from a marker :?: :?: :?: :shock:

Not a new idea. Letraset used to (and may still) do the Letrajet which was a single-action airbrush attachment for their ProMarker pen range.

Copic do something similar, but works with almost any liquid marker pen... https://www.copic-shop.co.uk/copic-air-grip/

I used Letraset stuff a lot in early 1980s but was not aware of that then and have only rarely used anything Letraset since.
