Paint Brush question

[Evil Appetite]

I know that brushes come in various kinds such as sable and nylon, but I've always wondered if one type is better suited for a certain type of paint. Does it even matter?

[Rob Z]

I prefer to use sable brushes because they are allot softer, they are more expensive but, the results are worth it... I think the last brush I bought was a 00000 and it cost me around 7 or 8 bucks US...

I get Red Sable, in sets, they were cheaper, I have since doubled up on a couple sizes

I tend to torture my brushes . . . so I'm always looking for fairly cheap ones that would do a nice job with washes, lotions & potions, you know the daily GUNK.

Round and flat brushes come in handy too. Fan brushes I use to create texture with the airbrush, etc . . .
