I was recently asked "What paint brushes do you use?"
Although I have a number of different makes of paint brushes in my tool box, my preferred is the 401 sable/synthetic mix with long handle numbers 2 or 3 from Rosemary & Co full details can be found here.
I like the long handled version as it has a better 'feel' than the short handled version and the sable/synthetic mix offers the best of both worlds with good paint retention and a little bit of 'spring' to the point making it easier to control.
I hope that this helps.

Me, cheap and cheerfull. I´m a bit lazy in the Paintbrush care dept and consequently I get through soooo many it seriously isn´t worth buying half decent named brand ones. If it keeps a Point for a month it´ll do for me.

ReplyDeleteI believe that the most important factor in improving painting technique is the brush, a good brush will greatly improve your output - a great brush should have obvious visible benefits.
A hard lesson learnt from many years prodding paint onto miniatures.
