Well for people to help you mate you need to let them know what kind of painting you intend to do (Detail or general or both) and with what kind of paint as well (oil enamels or acrylics etc) That will determine what gets recommend in terms of size and what the bristles are made from etc. Tony.

dandove Posted June 8, 2020 Author Share Posted June 8, 2020 I am looking to do both general and detail painting. I have not done any modelling since the 1970s so I have been trying to get up to speed on paint. Having read up on this, acrylic seems to be the way to go so far as I can see.

For general painting using acrylics, I recommend @PlaStix' YouTube video on the subject. An extremely helpful and practical demonstration of how to produce a great finish: 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AltcarBoB Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 I have been using Humbrol synthetic hair flat brushes for acrylics recently and I am finding them to be excellent. Don't know if they're long lasting as it's only been two months but they have been well used and still look brand new. These are the ones Flat brushes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
