there are, but cost would be something around 800-1.2k mark.

you can search Painted Gundam MG on ebay malaysia, there is 1 seller that sells painted kits, ask if they take commission.

people saying facebook has people taking commission but i have yet seen any. i think even if they do, it will be expensive and long que.

save your money and get Sakura or Copic 0.03/0.05 from art friend. those gundam extra fine markers are garbage.

Sakura has a set of color 0.05 pack but not available in Malaysia.

it's garbage that the tip dries out very fast and doesn't really have much ink in it. and if you use it on painted surface it clogs right away.

for rm11 you are better off with the cheaper Sakura Pigma or Copic. MPH, Jusco etc starting to stock Pigmas.

if you are using on bare plastic without any sort of coating then it's ok. i'm talking about those extra fine ones which only come in Black/Dark Grey or Brown.

it's also not as Ultra Thin as you think.

if you want higher end pen you can get the Copic SP which is customizable with exchangeable parts it's Silver normal version is black.

Robotech it's possible some areas are painted, or at least top coated. if the coat is semi gloss or matte it might be a problem, not just clogging but also potential staining as it's difficult to wipe away excess panel lines on non-smooth surfaces the ink will dry up on the spot.

so if you can use 0.03 pen instead of 0.05 it will greatly reduce the chance of excess panel lining it can also reach narrow places. so far there's only Black for 0.03.

if you panel line painted parts you need to apply a gloss coat to ensure the surface is smooth and excess can be wiped. even if you failed to wipe it off, you can scrap the excess off with hobby knife without damaging the paint. the problem is you need to apply another matte coat if you want to use weathering powder for shading because they don't stick on gloss surfaces.

thus i suggest use cheap clear lacquer gloss cans from hardware shop to keep the time short & cost low.

gundam panel markers also leaks easily around the tip after a while and the tip easily fuzz out.

also do not bother about those sharpie/stabilo markers the inks won't dry up on plastic and will turn into smudge when you top coat them.

i wasted some money on the stabilo set though. i don't draw so it's just a set of marker waiting to dry out.

if you want to buy, buy those pigmented/oil based. it's usually written on the pen. 0.03 is the sharpest i see.
