Gel Pens

Post by RogerC » Fri Sep 16, 2016 5:10 pm

Hi, after being recommended by a friend I have tried using Gel Pens for painting detail on figures and been pretty pleased with the result. In the below picture I have used it on the officer blade edge and point, hat and coat lace and gorget. More detail on the blog but not a bad idea.

Interesting idea.
Any recommendations as to types of pen and sources of them?

Cheers,

Toby

I got mine from Ebay and they are Uniball Signo. What I should have done though is choose the fine tip as mine are a bit big.
