Bring colour, depth and character to your miniatures with the Green Stuff World Dipping Ink Marker Paint Pen Set. Combining GSW’s Dipping Ink paints with the convenience of direct marker application, this collection gives hobbyists a practical way to paint miniatures using contrast techniques.
The translucent ink settles into recesses while leaving raised surfaces lighter, helping establish colour and shading in a single application. Each marker comes ready to use with 6.5ml of paint and a size #2 tip, allowing you to apply colour directly without a separate brush or palette.
From Ork skin and weathered leather to colourful robes, alien creatures and fantasy monsters, the set provides a broad palette for your next army, skirmish warband or board game painting project.
Choose a restrained palette for a cohesive army or experiment with contrasting colours across individual characters.

An effective army colour scheme often starts with a few repeatable choices.
Select your main colour for clothing or armour, a secondary colour for contrasting details, and a small selection of natural tones for skin, leather and equipment. Repeat those choices across your units to give the army a unified appearance.
Reserve a contrasting colour for officers, champions or specialist troops. A different cloak, brighter skin tone or distinctive piece of equipment can help those models stand out while keeping them connected to the rest of the force.
The full set gives you room to develop several army schemes without limiting every project to the same colours.
The Green Stuff World Dipping Ink Marker Paint Pen Set offers plenty of colour choices for the varied armies of Warhammer 40,000.
For Orks, experiment with Ork Flesh Dip, Hulky Green Dip and other greens to distinguish different mobs. Pair them with brown equipment, dark boots and red clothing for a classic, rugged appearance.
For Tyranids, explore purple carapaces, pale flesh and contrasting organic details. Repeating a small selection of colours across creatures of different sizes can help establish a recognisable hive fleet.
For Astra Militarum, build a practical palette around uniforms, leather pouches, straps and exposed skin.
Chaos Space Marines and their accompanying cultists provide opportunities for rich robes, unnatural flesh and colourful mutations. Use contrasting reds, purples and greens to separate different materials and draw attention to important details.
These are suggested colour combinations—experiment on a spare model to find the finish that suits your army.
Fantasy miniatures offer an enormous variety of surfaces and characters to explore.
Use the set to develop colour schemes for:
For Orruk Warclans, combine green skin with contrasting clothing and earthy equipment.
For Soulblight Gravelords, experiment with pale flesh, dark robes and deep red accents.
For Seraphon, explore colourful scales and contrasting details across your creatures.
For Skaven, build a worn appearance through muted clothing, brown equipment and distinctive accents on individual characters.
A painted board game collection makes characters easier to recognise and gives each encounter more personality.
Start by assigning a clear main colour to each hero. Repeat shared colours across matching enemies, then introduce small variations for elite creatures or bosses.
Brown equipment, distinctive clothing and contrasting skin tones can go a long way towards separating models visually. You can also carry those choices onto treasure, objective markers and scenic accessories to create a coordinated collection.
Prepare your models carefully before painting. Remove mould lines, clean the surface and apply an appropriate primer.
Green Stuff World recommends a white or light-coloured primer for the contrast effect. Shake each marker thoroughly, distribute the paint evenly and avoid repeatedly working over areas that have already started drying.
Test your chosen colours on a spare miniature before committing to a full unit. Once you have a scheme you like, keep a record of the colours used so you can reproduce it when adding new models.
You can finish your miniatures with conventional brushwork for extra highlights, metallic details and other finishing touches.
Whether you’re starting your first army or planning a new painting project, the Green Stuff World Dipping Ink Marker Paint Pen Set gives you a varied collection of colours to explore.
Create distinctive heroes, coordinated units and colourful creatures, then carry your chosen palette across the rest of your collection.
From a small fantasy warband to a complete tabletop army, this set puts a wide selection of GSW Dipping Ink colours within reach.
