I make no apologies for pledging towards this Painting Brush Kickstarter. It's being run by Games and Gears, who I understand are a reputable brush and hobby accessory company.
Having suffered through various attempts at painting miniatures using Citadel and other substandard paint brushes, I've finally decided to buy some decent paint brushes to see what sort of impact better brushes have on my painting results.
I've also pledged for some of the synthetic brushes and the paint brush stand that are being offering as add-ons.
If you are dissatisfied with your current paint brushes and are thinking of stepping up your painting game, you might want to check this Kickstarter out.
