Paint on Plastic is a Sci-Fi Mecha studio.
Studio-grade finishing. Narrative-driven builds. Technique that transfers across any subject.
Lincoln Wright is the author of the AK Interactive SCI-FI F.A.Q. — 428 pages, internationally distributed. One of the few Japanese-trained Ma.K. modelers publishing in English.
If you build it, this is how you finish it.

Frame 2.0 bench session. Pulled a wider paint set today — testing combinations and substitutions ahead of tomorrow's long-form. More methodology, more options. Frame 1.0 remaster drops Friday.

The reference book for sci-fi scale modeling is out of stock at every major US retailer. Here's the one place left.
SCI-FI F.A.Q. — 428 pages, full colour. Gundam, Maschinen Krieger, Macross, and Warhammer 40K in one volume. Not a gallery book — a full curriculum, from kit selection and first builds through advanced finishing, groundwork, figures, and a gallery from the best in the world.
Commissioned directly by Fernando, President of AK Interactive, and published under their international imprint. Kow Yokoyama personally reviewed and approved the Maschinen Krieger content — his message opens the book.
Written by me.
It's sold out at every major US retailer. This is the only place to buy it direct — from the person who wrote it. Ships worldwide from the studio (allow 2–3 weeks).

Half gone overnight. These are what's left.
27 OOP Ma.K. kits cleared from the studio bench — injection kits, PINKTANK boutique accessories, resin figures.
All brand new, all out of production. The resin figures are already gone. The WAVE 1/20 injection kits and Artpla sets are still available.
One of most. Ships from Sydney AU direct.
These don't restock.

STURMVOGEL Whole Shebang sold out in 36 hours.
Over 90% of orders were The Whole Shebang Bundle. One click, everything included. That's how I designed it — because it's exactly what I would buy.
Two more Whole Shebang Bundles live now.
FALKE GRIFFON Pkf.85bis — one unit remaining.
GHOSTKNIGHT — a couple left.

The DORA isn't a combat suit.It's an intelligence platform — designed to operate in pairs with Neuspotters, the SDR machine reconnaissance drones that push into hostile territory ahead of the line.
The DORA follows. Reads the data. Stays low. The upgraded stealth muffler keeps the engine signature minimal. The armoured windows on both sides carry the sensor packages that make the pair functional.
Forty years ago this was a resin Franken build. A handful of people built one. Now it's injection plastic, 1/20 scale, and it's on the bench.
Pre-order is live — shipping Late October 2026.→ store.paintonplastic.com/products/wave-dora

The DORA has existed in Ma.K. lore for over 40 years — but until now, only as a resin Franken build from the 1980s and '90s.
WAVE just announced the first full injection-plastic release. Pre-order is live now.
This is a greenfield subject for me — zero prior build history, same position I was in with the GUCKER. Which means the Workbench Edition, when it comes, will be built from scratch.
