Model Paint Brushes

A quality paint brush makes the difference between a tidy model and a truly impressive finish. Whether you're applying basecoats to 1:35 armour, picking out tiny details on a 28mm miniature, or blending camouflage on a 1:72 aircraft, the right brush for the task — and proper brush care — will transform your results.

For fine detail work on miniatures, a Series 7 Kolinsky sable brush from Winsor & Newton remains the gold standard — their ability to hold a fine point through thousands of brush loads is unmatched. For larger areas and drybrushing on models, synthetic brushes offer good value and withstand harsher techniques without damaging your best natural hair brushes.

Brush sets from Vallejo, Army Painter, and Citadel provide a practical range for most modelling tasks. Size 0 and 1 brushes cover most miniature painting, while sizes 3-5 handle base coating and larger scale models efficiently.

At Access Models, we stock a comprehensive range of paint brushes from beginner sets to professional Kolinsky sables. Pair them with our brush cleaner and restorer range to keep your tools performing at their best for years.
