Ойындар

Let's walk through the steps I take for maintaining a brush from the time I open the package, all the way through cleaning after painting. Make sure to check out our Jentastic's Drunken Brush Goop over at monumenthobbies.com !

    Can I just make a silly, aside comment? I was an editor (and camera/direction/everything) for about 15 years and I've noticed something while learning about painting miniatures from all of the amazing sources online. So many of these videos about techniques and tips and whatnot start with that killer rocking music, then the guy comes on and he has the energy of a sleeping iceberg lettuce. Not so for this vid, and that was kind of refreshing. You brought some energy and voice projection to the mix. Well done.

    This is a really good video. I have been wondering why my Winsor and Newton as well as my Artis Opus brushes are having issues since even before painting with them the first time. Everyone ends up just spamming you full of things like "DON'T LET PAINT GET INTO IT" and so on, but that doesn't apply if you haven't actually used it yet.

    Coincidence? I also use a talenti gelato cup as my water cup haha. Thanks for the info, this helped me realize that I've been cleaning my brushes wrong, I was always twisting it, thinking it would help me keep the shape better! The agitating motion in the hand is way better too, I tried it today and got way more paint coming out of the ferrule then I even knew was there, thanks!

    This is a great brush care video thank you Slowfuse. Quick question: I am looking at your Sam Lenz Weapon Rack Brush set. That comes with 3 Kolinsky Sable Brushs and 2 larger synthetics right?

    Dude just found this video searching for reviews in your bomb wicks and this saved a few of my brushes I thought wouldn't hd a point after cleaning. Turns out it was a few bristles that needed to cut. Awesome video. I'm going to try your ignites. What would u recommend size wise compared to size 1 and 0?

    Awesome! Glad it helped. Our Igniters run a size down from what you're used to, so a number 2 would be like a number one in other brands, and a 1 like a zero in most cases.

    When you email us (sales@slowfusegaming.com) it helps a ton if you include a pic of the brush problem so that we can work with the factory to solve and make sure we catch it earlier next time. Thanks!
