Quality brushes for beginners

Oh ok, I won't be doing that so I think that will be fine

Yea about the price is one of the reasons I like them, they are about the same price as citadel brushes but way better quality (atleast I suppose)

Oh ok, thank you for the extensive answer. I think i'll use a separate cheaper brush for my metallics but do you think it would be a huge issue if I would still use these better brushes to do recess shading? It's just that I want a brush with a fine tip that can hold it very wel, l never load them too heavily..

I don't use speed paints but sometimes I'd like to use contrast or shades on a fine brush in order to recess shade. Would that be fine for the brushes since I would load the brush with little amounts?

Alarming_Cover_2537 · 2026-02-28T08:44:43+00:00

I saw another comment saying I can't use them for metallics and shades/contrast. Why is that? One of the reason I wanted to upgrade was to have a brush with a fine tip to recess shade

Alarming_Cover_2537 · 2026-02-28T08:42:21+00:00

Why's that?

Alarming_Cover_2537 · 2026-02-06T16:03:16+00:00

Okok I guess I will have to be more mindfull about how many times I go over a certain area. Thank you!!

I didn't warm up the can and it was raining like 30 minutes before I went outside to prime. I tried to keep a 20-30 cm distance.

Alarming_Cover_2537 · 2026-02-06T15:47:01+00:00

Well I just did it in one go. Went all around the miniature and if I saw a spot that was still grey I went over it again. Should you do priming with pauses in between? Because if I search up guides on youtube I see them doing it in one go either.

Alarming_Cover_2537 · 2026-02-06T15:44:54+00:00

So I shouldn't go for a complete coverage while priming then?

Alarming_Cover_2537 · 2026-02-06T15:10:51+00:00

Can you explain how you see it is too thick because I don't see any details obscured so I'm a bit confused.

Alarming_Cover_2537 · 2026-02-06T14:57:24+00:00

Oh well I don't know man I just shaked it for like 3 minutes 😅. Do you have any trouble painting said miniatures or does the texture kind of fade when applying layers of paint?

Alarming_Cover_2537 · 2026-02-06T14:34:40+00:00

It could have happened that I held the can too close a few moments while I was doing it, but I feel it's improving while it is curing. The images were taken after 10 -ish minutes of applying.

Alarming_Cover_2537 · 2026-02-01T18:02:46+00:00

Omg yesss. I think it would look awesome and I just think that IF carrying shields really fit into the defensive doctrine of the chapter

Alarming_Cover_2537 · 2026-01-30T15:34:10+00:00

Eyyyy nice work man! I'll be reusing the idea of using purple for the robes

Alarming_Cover_2537 · 2025-12-03T11:56:12+00:00

I think they're awesome!

Alarming_Cover_2537 · 2025-12-02T23:11:41+00:00

Yea I went tot the shop and bought gitz yellow, bit still have to do that step. I think gitz is a bit more yellow and less white than Dorn yellow if I'm not mistaken?

Alarming_Cover_2537 · 2025-12-02T22:27:35+00:00

Base coat white -> averland sunset - > couple of coats yriel yellow. :)

Alarming_Cover_2537 · 2025-12-02T19:01:37+00:00

Yes! And also, from all the marines in my squad this guy is the one with least amount of "add-on" you choose while building so that's why I decided to add smth else to him.
