AK Weathering Pencil – Dark Blue (AK10008)
A deep blue tone for chips, panel accents, deep shading, and worn blue paint. Dark Blue is ideal when you want stronger contrast than a mid-blue, but still keep the effect colored rather than grey or black.
 
What it does
Adds deep blue wear on edges, chips, and scratched paint areas
Helps define panels and recesses with a blue-tinted shadow
Great for small markings, stripes, and reinforced “painted metal” details
 
How to use
Apply on a matte surface along edges, seams, and chips.
Blend with a slightly damp brush to soften marks into natural wear.
Build up gradually—keep most of it subtle and concentrate the strongest tone in corners.
 
Best for
Blue vehicles and armor, sci-fi panels, markings and stripes, edge wear, deep shading on colored schemes.

ChalkyDot Tip
Try it for “colored panel lining”: draw into recesses, then soften lightly with water so it reads as shadowed paint, not a drawn line.
