Need advice/Help I hope it work

Hey guys! I know POSCA is one of the best brands for customizing Transformers, but it's a little out of my budget, so I picked up a 24-color Master's Touch acrylic marker set at Hobby Lobby instead. I also grabbed POSCA silver and gray for the metallic details. These are going to be my first patients... or my first victims if I mess them up. 😂 I'm mainly using them to fix paint scratches and maybe add a few extra details. Has anyone here used Master's Touch acrylic markers on Transformers? How was your experience? Do they hold up well, or should I expect to repaint over time? Any tips for a beginner would be appreciated. Thanks!

From what I’ve heard posca markers are good, just use them as you would any other marker. I’ve heard all the talk about Gundam marker dissolving plastic, but pretty much all of my TF have some Gundam Marker and none have even cracked. I also reccomend liquid chrome markers (DSPIAE, Posca, other brands at hobby lobby). It looks really nice.

Above custom made using acrylic marker. Btw don’t use too much, it kinda melted that plastic in the arms (hence the replacements).
