AK Interactive Weathering Pencils are innovative tools designed to create precise weathering effects such as rust, streaking, grime, chipping, and more on scale models and miniatures. These water-activated pencils combine the control of traditional colored pencils with the versatility of weathering pigments and paints. Use them dry for edge highlights and scratches or activate them with water to blend, streak, or wash over surfaces. Available in a wide range of realistic colors—including rust tones, dust shades, chipping effects, and grease marks—AK’s Weathering Pencils make it easy to achieve professional results without requiring advanced techniques. They're ideal for plastic models, armor kits, aircraft, and figures, and work especially well on matte or slightly rough surfaces for maximum grip. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced hobbyist, these pencils offer a forgiving and creative way to add authentic depth and damage to your projects.
Weathering Pencils are used to add fine weathering details like rust, dust, chipping, smoke streaks, and oil marks on models. They’re great for achieving precision effects that might be difficult with a brush or sponge, making them perfect for panel lining, surface streaking, and textural enhancement.
You can use the pencils dry to draw scratches or subtle lines directly onto the model, or apply them wet by dipping the tip in water or using a damp brush to dissolve and spread the pigment. Wet techniques let you create washes, blend colors, and add streaking or rain effects with more flexibility.
Yes, matte or slightly textured surfaces work best. The pigment in Weathering Pencils adheres much more effectively to flat coats, allowing for better coverage and easier blending. Applying a matte varnish before using the pencils is recommended for optimal results.
Absolutely. AK Weathering Pencils work well alongside washes, filters, chipping fluids, and pigments. Many modelers use pencils for precision touches, then layer other products to build more depth or tie the effects together. They’re particularly useful for enhancing areas that need clean edges or subtle contrast.
Yes. Weathering Pencils are very user-friendly, offering a low-risk way to experiment with weathering techniques. Because they’re water-soluble, mistakes can be easily corrected or blended out before drying. They’re a great stepping stone into more complex effects without requiring solvents or advanced tools.
You can use Weathering Pencils on tanks, aircraft, trains, sci-fi vehicles, miniatures, dioramas, and even figures. They’re especially effective on armored panels, machinery, engine compartments, and any place where rust, soot, or grime would logically collect. Their versatility makes them a staple in any modeler's kit.
After you’ve completed your weathering with the pencils and allowed the effects to fully dry, you can seal your work using a clear matte varnish or fixative spray. This will protect the pigment and prevent smudging or fading, ensuring your detailing stays intact through handling or additional painting steps.
