These four sizes allow for versatile use — from small-scale detail work to covering large surfaces quickly. The rounded head and soft synthetic bristles help achieve natural transitions of color and light, making them ideal for texturing stone, fabric, dust, or skin.
Applications & inspiration:
Pro tips:
Load a minimal amount of paint onto the brush, then remove the excess on paper or a tear-off palette. Apply light, repeated strokes across the surface, focusing on raised details. Clean the brushes after each session using an appropriate cleaner or thinner depending on paint type. Proper care ensures long-lasting performance and shape retention.
Durability & care:
These synthetic bristles are resistant to frequent cleaning and maintain their round shape over time. For best results, clean with a mild brush cleaner such as AK Brush Cleaner and store upright or flat to preserve the tips.
The Dry Brushes Set is an essential tool for every hobbyist aiming to master the drybrushing technique. From subtle highlights to striking weathering effects, this set provides the control, versatility, and durability needed to achieve professional results in any scale.
