demonherald Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 Well the postie battled through the bears and wolves and got them to my neck of the woods today - which is incredible service!! They look nice brushes too! Told ya... One other note on Rosemary and co.. anyone out there wo suffers from any stiffness in the fingers or joints while painting if you mail them they can make any of their brushes with triangular handles . I picked a couple up du to a dodgy right finger I broke seveal times when younger and there is no compromise in quality but they are a damn comfortable brush to use.....

moonrise Posted March 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 sorry for breaching this topic again but i was wondering which one in Rosemary's pure kolisnky line could be used for drybrushing ? thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritual Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 Personally, I never buy new brushes for dry-brushing. I use old ones that aren't good enough for detail work anymore. If I was to buy a new brush, I probably wouldn't buy pure kolinsky. Perhaps a red sable instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malebolgia Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 I've ordered two nylon/synthetic brushes with Rosemary for drybrushing scenery/terrain/dioramas/;). According to Antenociti's Workshop these are the best for drybrushing scenery. For drybrushing bases and small parts of miniatures I use the GW drybrushes. They are excellent for drybrushing and keep going for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonrise Posted March 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 red sable, or nylon/synthetic. got it well, i no longer have my old brushes after my ex thought i was going to toss them out anyway (NOT!!!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malebolgia Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Received my brushes yesterday (so they arrived within a week after ordering) and tried the series 33 out. I like them! They are different from W&N series 7 as the hairs are softer than the series 7 hairs. This has its disadvantages and advantages; always nice to have brushes that behave differently so you'll have both types for all situations. For the price they are top quality. I'd rate them a 9/10.

Beelzebrush Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 Series 33 Well, I finally tried these properly today (started my IP entry... yay!). I have to say that I'm really impressed. They seem soft but responsive and easily controllable - they also form a very good point. I started using a No.1 and a 00 and didn't bother swapping to the 00 after a while as the point is fine enough for finer detail. So... highly recommended - especially in light of the very attractive pricing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
