Of course the true test of the brush will come in the weeks and months ahead, but the first voyage was a pleasant one.Demitrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17364098865244177181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3971457096513194140.post-38015770985108814972012-03-23T16:39:16.168-04:002012-03-23T16:39:16.168-04:00I bought my first W&N S7 #1 about a year and a...I bought my first W&N S7 #1 about a year and a half ago and finally had to toss it a month ago or so, after painting hundreds of models (Yay 40k Orks) including metallics. I would typically use my brush cleaner only after I painted with metallic paints. At the end, the brush still came to a nice point, but had lost all of it's springyness.<br /><br />If you're concerned about metallics damaging the brush, use a cheaper brush to do those. Or try some painting without them (nmm!)<br /><br />The mineral is mica, btw.<br /><br />Love the blog and keep it up!Hefflingnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3971457096513194140.post-54176743987363611232012-03-22T17:33:54.401-04:002012-03-22T17:33:54.401-04:00I own 3 W&N brushes (0, 1 and 2).

I don't use them for metalics all that often, but I have used them and they've done alright.<br /><br />Just use them and love them. Don't go out of your way to abuse them (drybrushing), but I've been painting with them my #1 for almost a year now and it's shown very little wear, unlike the old synthetics I used to have that would be useless after a month of heavy use.Rkikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02841432959251782948noreply@blogger.com
