I have plenty of unopened boxes if you fancy something new 
Synthetic don’t last a crack. They will always start to get a hook. Some of my GW brushes look like a hedgehog. I seem to be going for my cheaper brushes I got from the range more than the GW ones.Ordered the Artis Opus Series S 5 brush box set this morning, lets hope they live up to the hype, I have 3 of their M Series and they seem to be fine.
Getting fed up with the GW medium and small layer brushes, basically they keep losing their shape plus stray bristles keep popping out, I use brush soap to clean them after use and also I am very gentle with them
These are not the white synthetic brushes that they produce, or am I painting too much
Cheers All
There is a size 2 in the Series S set that I ordered yesterday, one of the reasons that I picked up the 5 brush set.My most used brushes. As you can see the Range brushes ain’t half bad. Really disappointed with the Raphael’s they were superb to start off with.
It's more like a detail brush!! the point is amazing. In that set in mine the 000 doesn't look like the others and more like the W&N. That's a size 2 Raphael at the end. After something similar. The Series S size 2 would fall in-between the two Raphael's but just looking at it I know I would have no problem doing detailed work with it.
My white handled GW layer brushes were like that but sadly now they are knackered.
Got the week off work and I'm stripping models
They seem to be coming out cleaner and quicker with a straight dunk into the ultrasonic cleaner in IPA.
I much prefer the look of decal's than the GW sculpted shoulder pads
Contrast paint as your first layer on the fur which will provide some nice light and dark areas, then drybrush over the top, which is how I did the fur on Ushoran

Gore Grunta fur or Cygor Brown is a good base contrast.
Check out Warhipster's Black Talons painting video where he does a really nice fur cloak on one of the models
Just had a look at the Burrows and Badgers figures they look really good, seriously though they look perfect for contrast painting as there are loads of details and not too many flat areas.

Love the leather details too, perfect for a Gore Grunta Fur basecoat with a reikland fleshshade wash over the top
Well, TTC equivalent called Flesh Wash but I got Gore Grunta Fur and Cygor brown for sure. I guess I can make use of blacks/greys too, there is no rules with how you paint them plus I can always go with they dyed their fur for their warband 
Redemptor WIP. I was getting a bit worried about this one as it was looking pretty guff for a while there but I think it'll be alright.
They look good I could have printed those out for youSo these turned up today. Designed them myself and used a local company to 3d print them, 10 sets of end bits to go on some angle aluminium and create a new paint rack. They have holes in the tops and bottom to stack also.
Just spraying up a base and then will assemble them
