15PCS Detail Brushes

These are as close to professional artist brushes that I'll ever need. I know there are better brushes around, but these are extremely high quality brushes. I was very impressed by the packaging from Nicpro. Impossible to become damaged during shipping. Each brush is individually encased in plastic and then all brushes are contained in a harder plastic container inside a very nice felt type draw string bag for future storage if you so desire. Wasn't expecting this.And it would be difficult to find fault with the brushes. A pretty complete set of any detail brush I'm going to be needing and so far the one's I've used have done the job well beyond adequately. No frays or loose fibers resulting in fine detailed painting. I wish I'd bought these prior to starting my current painting. I was about half done and didn't have the detail or quality brushes these are. And I can see a huge difference. It may end up looking like two different people had a hand in painting this LOLAlso, I love the design and feel of the handles. The brushes are about 7 1/2" long from tip to end of handle and are just the right diameter for easy handling allowing great flexibility. And they have a flat surface near the top of the handle which not only facilitates holding the brush but totally eliminates brushes rolling around the table. LOVE THAT. And lastly, they really clean up easily. Oh, and one last thing. Nicpro includes a very descriptive pocket sized guide that explains all the elements of a brush, and a guide for each type (i.e. liner, round, spot, etc) and what they are best used for. I found that very helpful and thanks to Nicpro for that.If you're looking for a very nice set of detail brushes, these may very well be just what you've been looking for. They were for me. Highly recommend.

Great quality for the price range. they hold their shape better than any budget brush ive bought on amazon.

These are good quality brushes and I’m appreciative that the manufacturer put detailed “care” instructions. This included tips to wash of the protective coating on the bristles and adding a dab of oil to the bristles to prevent drying out. I’m a hobbyist painter but never considered that bristles would dry out and become less effective. Each tip of every brush had a cylindrical plastic tube protecting the brush. Excellent feel when holding the brushes. I’ve only been using a week so I cannot speak to their shape retention but to date they are holding up well after repeated washings.

I was having a hard time finding a good set of detail brushes for painting acrylics on models, especially since I use both heavy body and thinned fluid acrylics to paint horses (that comes with it’s own set of unique miniature painting challenges not all brushes can handle). I’ve used these for about two years now and with care, they have performed well (minus the squares) and they have not once shed. That alone makes them a great starter kit, or excellent back up kit for a more advanced artist.The liners and rounds have been great for hair-by-hair details. Even the liners hold enough paint for me to paint complicated, time consuming horse patterns while smoothly off-loading the paint. The liners did have problematic guide hairs sticking way past the other hairs, so if you aren’t getting crisp lines and full control, trim those guide hairs down. Both the rounds and liner brushes respond well to brush training when the strands start to stick out.I’m a little disappointed in the squares. They arrived bent and frayed and I regret not exchanging them, as they have not responded to brush training. This makes them very hard to blend, shade and glaze with, so make sure you get ones in good shape.The handles are very comfortable. The names and size numbers are rubbing away, which is a little unfortunate. But the fact that these haven’t shed in two years and that I’ve gotten a lot of work out of the majority of them definitely makes them a value.

These brushes work so well for the details on the nativity set I am painting . Love the quality. Smooth and fine

An absolute bargain! My wife and I just started with watercoloring about one year year ago. We have a few nice brushes but wanted to take the next step and treat herself with a variety pack to continue to explore the new lessons she is taking as they are getting more difficult since more details are included in the new paintings. We thought we would get something affordable at first to see if we really need all of these different shapes and sizes. I must say, we are incredibly surprised with the high quality of these brushes at such a low price-point. The school had some really nice "high end" sets but they were at the $80-$100 range. We have been painting with this set for about 3 weeks now, and I must say we do not believe there is a need to upgrade at all.Things that we like:- They are ergonomically shaped which makes holding the brush while working on fine details very easy as opposed to the normal thin brushes- The tips are very well made and pressed in place with very nice precision and force- The various tips were a surprise for us and it is really nice to follow along the lessons while having the correct tip in the set (as opposed to adapting with a 5 tips for all designs approach which is what we have been doing)- The carrying case is genius! simple and sturdy. They include a soft bag, but also a hard plastic shell which screws in place to protect the brushes.Due to the price point and qualityI will most likely be getting another set for myself so we don't have to share.Please let us know if this helps by clicking on the "Helpful" button below or comment below if you any questions or want to see more pictures.Cheers,

I absolutely love these brushes!
