Winsor & Newton Galeria Filbert Long Handle Brush, Size 8

I've been oil painting for close to 20 years and have quite a few galeria brushes. Most of mine are from when I started and have lasted nearly 20 years and are still as great as when I began. They are my go to brushes, as their elegance flows on a canvas like silk. They do things my other brushes just cannot hope to do and if they ever made a fan brush I'd buy it. After 20 years, none of them have broken, their brisles are all great, and the handles aren't flaking the finish that badly. I have high expectations for this brush, and hope to buy more Galeria brushes in the future.

This is a nice brush. I ordered a #10 bright. When I got it I opened wit and the brush is tiny! I hate when this happens because not all brushes are the same when it comes to measurement. The quality of the brush is very well made and I will reorder but maybe a size 40???? Would still recommend, just watch the size

Excellent quality and value for the money . Winston Newton’s brushes never fail.

This review is for the Galeria size 0 brush. While my Winsor & Newton series 7 (MUCH better brushes) all have super sharp, pointy tips, this brush's tip isn't quite so sharp. The tip balloons out a bit more than others when paint is added. This brush is good for base coating small minis and doing the dirty work (washes, metallics) but the mediocre sharpness of the tip makes it hard to paint lines and tiny details. You'll need to use a different brush for that. Also, after washing the brush it is more difficult to reshape into a sharp point than other brushes. 4 stars.

Best line of brushes I have used for miniature painting. Holds paint great, has lasted me much longer than other brushes and the bristles are in as good condition as when I took them out of the package (with help of some brush cleaner). Top of the line, the only brand I will be buying for fine detail work from here on out.

I was hoping to get at least a couple of painting sessions with this brush before the synthetic bristles became unusable, but the brush came split to hell and even after brush conditioner it still was a split p.o.s. First photo is of the brush right out of the box, second is after brush conditioner and a paint attempt. Simply awful. Wait til the series 7s come down to a non-extortionate price and save your time on these.

I buy this brush not for painting, but for acrylic nails Application. For me, this is the size 20 nail brush. Even in pictures might look like the right 16 size nail brush, but trust me, it’s big. I gonna keep this and try it with acrylic. If the hair is soft enough, I might order the size 14 or 12. Idk.

Winsor & Newton have regularly produced the most reliable artist's materials; but the GALERIA line of brushes perform so well you don't even have to think about them. Just DO it.

ottimo prodotto buona fattura , ben fatto , acquistato per modelloismo, consigliato, e poi ad un prezzo cosi non si trova niente di migliore secondo me

Tamanho, cerdas firmes, segura bem a tinta. Ótimo produto!

Excellent brush I work with it mostly on its own and find it does fine work as well as heavier work

A great value brush takes a lot of washing and continual use.

Alldeles för styv.
