Michaels Paint brushes? - Forum - DakkaDakka
2013年9月27日 · At the very least, they behave more like "real" brushes than shorter, thicker synthetics that can push house paint, but hook and get bushy after the first week.

Cheap model paints vs Citidel/Vallejo/Army Painter - Have you …
2021年4月8日 · So I recently watched a youtube painter video where he went to a local Michaels (US hobby craft store) and he picked up a boxed set of "Acrylic Model paints" 24 colors in squeeze bottles, for under 30 USD.

Paintbrush storage--upside or down? - Forum - DakkaDakka
2018年1月23日 · I abuse my brushes in use too much to worry about storage. In my view, brushes are just another disposable resource like paint.

Metallic paint scheme - glazes or washes? Or other? Tamiya? What?
2018年9月19日 · Folkart makes new "color shift" (interference) paint that seems quite good. Initial tests show no whiteness from the medium and applies thinly and evenly with a brush. Plus they are cheap and available at Michaels. Orktober is going to be shiny for me.
How to fix split brushes? - Forum - DakkaDakka
2016年1月26日 · Your sable brushes will last forever (hundreds of models). Not only that, but it's much easier to paint great detail (such as with an Artificer brush) when there's no old paint stuck on the brush -- even if it's only a little bit of paint, it decreases your ability to paint accurately.

Cadmium used in many art paints is highly toxic, and white is usualy bleached titanium, also highly toxic.

Brush Comparison (Citadel, Army Painter and W&N)
2022年12月28日 · Years ago when I left the hobby, GW brushes were amazing for being hit and miss in quality. Some friends having used the same 2-3 brushes for years, some friends grabbing a new one every couple of months. I started off with Army Painter brushes and recently treated myself to some Winsor and Newton Sceptre Gold II.
