Similarly, you might see AC which would be the alcohol/pastel chalk technique Brett describes in the manuals or in the "University" videos.
as Jim states A/I is a mix of alcohol and Ink (india ink, black), to create a wash which enhances crevasses, depth and shadows in our models.
The recomended type of ink is specified on the "University" main page, along with many other supplies.

It is used in many aspects of modelling and is very versatile.
