Brushes from Monty's Miniatures

[Nap]

Hi everyone ,


Monty's Miniatures....who or what are they ...well a new venture by a fellow who in real life is called Simon Edwards and on PF is known as montythefirst

​

​

Simon decided to get a series of brushes done for day to day use which were both good quality and in useful sizes so he commissioned a company to produce what we are looking at for the Monty's Miniatures.

The samples were sent quickly and were held in a good clear storage wallet which not only held them all together is a good case when travelling .

I have been using these for basing and detailing for the past week or so and have given them some rough treatment and I am pleasantly surprised at the "staying power" of them particularly the larger sizes .

Features:

• Red Sable brush hair
• Very good security in the ferrule which has no join
• Distinctive Orange and Black wooden handle
• Handle is short in length from lower edge of ferrule (130mm approx)
• Comfortable to hold and use
• Good " spring and elasticity" on brush point
• Brush holds paint well
• UK manufactured

Suitability

• No concerns with my chosen Acrylics or Water Soluable Oils
• Suitable for all scales from wargame figures upwards
• Good for both small and larger area's of a model

Sizes

• A selection available at present consist of sizes , 2, 1, 0 , 00 and a 000

• If you want some specific sizes or qty the contact Simon direct to sort this out

General Comments

• These are not kolinsky sable but are good quality red sable
• They are good brushes for " bulk" painting
• Reasonably priced
• Sourced by Simon (a commison painter) who knows what both him and us need
• With regular cleaning as we would do they will give a long service at the bench

Shipping​

• UK is FREE
• Overseas is available but the purchaser is requested to check import rules regarding sable .

Final Thoughts

Its nice to see a modeller producing what we want and something so vital as a good brush , these are not Series 7 but will give a good back up and a good result on your chosen model.​

Presentation and materials used are of a good quality and there is of course that nice and easy to see handle.​

I will be getting some more of the the more popular sizes and hope we might see perhaps some flats as well​

​

Well done to Monty's Miniatures going for this venture​
