Frequently Asked Question
For beginners, three brushes cover most situations: a medium base brush for applying base coats to larger areas, a standard layer brush for general detail work, and a fine detail brush for eyes and tiny details. These three brushes handle the vast majority of miniature painting tasks.
Rinse your brushes frequently during painting, never leave them standing in water, and clean them thoroughly after each session. Brush soap or conditioner helps maintain the tip. Store brushes tip-up or flat, never tip-down.
Citadel brushes are solid, well-regarded hobby brushes that perform reliably for their intended purpose. For painters wanting a step up, synthetic brushes from Army Painter or kolinsky sable brushes from Artis Opus offer excellent alternatives.
Brushes used regularly for basecoating may need replacing every few months. Fine detail brushes last longer if well-maintained. A brush that no longer holds a point should be retired to basecoating duties.
A Dry brush has stiffer, more splayed bristles designed for the drybrushing technique. They are not suitable for regular painting but are perfect for quickly adding highlights to textured surfaces.
