Will they sell paint markers individually? If so, how much?

Do you have to pump the markers to get the paint flowing like with the Molotow Chrome pens?

1, Yes the markers are sold individually. Each color is available tp be sold separately. They also are sold in small themed sets such as Allied or Axis cockpit colors. You will have to contact shops from pricing, or look online.

2, no pumping or shaking is needed before using the markers. Just uncap them and get to work. Make sure that you cap them back properly after use so that the tip will not dry out.

I don’t know about for you, but are you noticing that the paints have a slight sheen and do not dry dead flat?

Yeah I noticed that too. Some do and some don't.

Now as far as painting the figures, the tips can be a bit too big for small detail work like the faces.

Yeah, I was using them for some detail work this past Saturday.

I used them as the second color, "Wood Base" as the darker yellow on three color day desert camo on these rucksack covers



I was gonna try out their "buff" as the darkest third color on that scheme, but it was way too light...

I also used several of the greens and black for periscopes, hatch seal rings, straps, and buckles on the stowage for my FISTV





it definitely takes a steady hand and fine touch for the precision work, as the paint flow is quite good...
