JunkPile Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 10/0 is pretty small Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JunkPile Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 A sharpened toothpick can get really small for some detail painting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JunkPile Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Paint a base color then top color then wipe carefully. Or you can apply accent paint to low areas only and wipe off high spots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest G Holding Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 These are a great set, $$ but quality. I've had mine for 5 or 6 years now, lost 1 cap and they get used with lacquer, enamels, and acrylics. http://www.micromark.com/6-piece-ultra-detailer-paint-brush-set,7662.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are a really quality brush for the money. Im looking at buying a set of these brushes you mentioned as well for weathering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monty Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Has anyone tried any of these brushes? http://www.micromark.com/30and0-micro-miniature-paint-brush-set-4-brushes,9628.html I'm intrigued by the size, but I'd like to know how well they actually work.
