Citadel - STC Large Shade Brush

These synthetic bristles hold up way better than my old natural-hair brush did, and I've been using it daily for a month. It lays down smooth, even coats across the whole side of a large tank in just a couple passes.

Shading my largest monster models used to eat up an entire evening, but this brush covers so much surface at once that I finished the base coats in half the time. The synthetic bristles have held their shape perfectly through several scrubbing sessions and haven't shed a single hair yet.

I paint a lot of big tanks and this thing covers a whole side in a couple of passes instead of twenty. The synthetic bristles haven't splayed or shed once, even after a few months of heavy weekend use.
