Green Stuff World's range of synethic paintbrushes, GREEN SERIES. Expertly hand-crafted and designed to help you paint your armies and figures to an exceptional standard. There are many brush types and sizes and each one has been designed for a different purpose. Synthetic bristles are very similar to the natural hair bristles but are more suitable for less experienced painters or for techniques which require a less watered down medium, like dry brushing. Great for single stroke techniques, and generally any other technique that requires charging minimally diluted paint as the synthetic bristles absorb less water. For techniques such as washing, blending, layering and degrading that require a more diluted medium we suggest using our natural hair brushes. Compared with natural hair brushes, synthetic hair brushes require less maintenance to maintain the shape of the tips. It is recommended to shape the bristles into a sharp point after use, and avoid leaving paint residue dry between the bristles. After painting, leave them standing up to avoid deforming the tips. Good maintenance of these brushes will ensure their longevity.
