The problem that im having with the arcylic brushes is they are synthetic and have a tendancy to curve at the tip for some reason (no i don' tleave my brushes in water and i store them flat. I don't understand but oh well.


That's a problem almost all synthetic brushes have in common. No idea why but it's the main reason I stick with natural hair brushes.

I'm going to get a new brush! Nothing special just one from the local craft store. I already have a size1 brush, any recommendations as to what type I should get?

@ Mordheimer I'm curious now.....

Thread Necromancy! POOF!

Was just curious what Kiwi's sig was about, hehe. Wink

Anyway, if anyone is looking for good brushes, I suggest Da Vinci. I'm like Skraag when it comes to painting. I use a larger brush for just about anything, because it holds more paint than the smaller ones. Then I use a detail brush for eyes and stuff.

As he said earlier in this thread: as long as the tip is good, you need a tiny brush to pull off accurate painting. Just get a good brush!

And, and on synthetics: my tips keep curving, too! Da Vinci is organic stuff. Even though the local store recommended synthetic for acrylics, I find the organic brushes to be much better.

Kiwi deleted his SIG!!! Booooohhhhh!!!!

hehehe check out THIS... ghehehehe... http://www.deathsquadsgame.com/t994-caring-for-brushes-master-kiwi

We were giving Kiwi a hard time. He was saying how hard was for him to sculpt and paint (like we all do) when suddenly he posted his 1st attempt to sculpt a hat... a MASTER PIECE! The he made the 'mistake' of posting a picture of his brushes... heheheh... after we gave him a hard time, and he changed his brush only to show how AWESOME painter he is. Hehehehe... all in good fun.

I did?

I really find painting a lot easier with a detail brush not that I've been doing a whole lot lately. Though I might start a new squad, I managed to pick up the last chancers for the price of a box of cadian shock troops!

Yeah... my bad!

Kiwi is cool... he has more painting talent in his pinky that I will get in a life-time. Now that he 'discovered' that it is easier to paint with GOOD brushes, 'Eavy Metal should start making some space for him in 5 years! Wink
