Yep, those are what I'm using. I have two of the 5 packs, $10 each, plus the silver and gold, at $3 each.
I use the fine sizes, except on the gold and silver where I derped up and grabbed the medium size, which is freaking HUGE when dealing with a small kit. But I just dump a lot of paint on the bigger spots, or on a paper, and apply with a brush to the areas the fatter tip can't reach. But unless you're doing huge swaths of plastic, get the fine tip.
I'm still pretty tempted to grab a set of metallic Gundam markers from HLJ, though, for metallic blue, red and green, though I don't know what I'd use it on.
Oh, one more thing I've been doing. I don't know if it's because I'm painting too many areas at once, or if I'm just a klutz, but I am always touching the not-yet-dried-paint and smearing it around on other colors, the red in particular seemed to still feel kinda tacky after drying over night.
So, I picked up a spray can of clear Triple Glaze, or something like that, from Walmart for $3, and I used it the other day to spray down the pieces of PatStriker I'm done with, and after it dried I think it looks pretty fantastic. It's a decent gloss (I like gloss), plus it feels like it will protect the paint well. I likes it. Just got to finish up the white paint on the rear of PatStriker, glaze it, and it's done.
