Real Touch Markers are water-based, so it is possible to apply not only on unpainted plastic models, but also on surfaces that are painted with Gundam Marker, Mr Color, or Aqueous Hobby Color. Applying Real Touch Markers on surfaces that are coated with Top Coat Flat or Mr Super Clear Flat will give you a greater finish, however the ink from Real Touch Markers would stick to the surface more and the excess ink would become harder to wipe off, so it is recommended to apply less ink.
With the fine tip of Real Touch Marker, lightly draw around the outline and edges of a plastic model. With the fine tip of Shade Off Marker, blur the color by going back over the colored area. In addition, use the bold tip of Shade Off Marker to adjust the color depth. When you blur the colors, the ink may transfer onto the tip of the marker, so clean the tip by pressing down the marker against tissue paper. Paint with bold tip of the marker to color large area, and wipe off the ink with cotton swab or tissue before the ink dries. Shading can be applied by leaving the ink in the hollow, gaps, and other areas where the shadows would appear, for a sharper and more realistic appearance. Finishing with Top Coat Flat or Mr Super Clear Flat will give a more realistic finish.
