Citadel Synthetic Base Brush Medium - Essential Base Coating Tool for Miniature Painters
The Citadel Synthetic Base Brush Medium is a specialized painting tool designed by Games Workshop, the creators of Warhammer, to help miniature enthusiasts achieve professional-quality base coating and foundational paint work with exceptional versatility and smooth coverage. This precision instrument features a perfectly balanced black handle with the distinct Citadel branding and a carefully crafted head of premium synthetic bristles specifically engineered for smooth paint application and efficient base coating work across medium-sized surfaces and standard model areas.
Measuring approximately 7 inches in length, this medium-sized base brush provides the perfect balance between coverage capability and precise control for foundational painting work. The bristles are precisely shaped to maintain optimal paint capacity while delivering smooth, even coverage without brush marks or streaking. The versatile brush head is sized specifically for efficient base coating work on medium areas, standard armor panels, and character sections where smaller brushes would be too slow and larger brushes would compromise detail work.
The defining characteristic of this brush is its exceptional synthetic bristle construction optimized for base coating applications. The synthetic fibers are engineered for superior paint flow, consistent coverage, and excellent shape retention. These high-quality synthetic bristles are specifically designed to work with base paints and foundational colors, providing the smooth, opaque coverage essential for proper base coating techniques. The bristles maintain their precise shape and paint-holding capacity through repeated use and cleaning, ensuring consistent performance for countless base coating sessions. The medium size and controlled flexibility of the synthetic bristles allow for efficient application across moderate surface areas while maintaining the precision needed for detailed edge work and color transitions.
The ergonomic black handle features the Citadel logo and product information, making it easily identifiable in your painting toolkit. The balanced weight distribution provides excellent control during both precision work and broader coverage applications, allowing you to maintain steady application even when working on comprehensive base coating projects that require consistent coverage across multiple miniatures.
This brush excels at applying base coats, foundational colors, and solid coverage paints to medium-sized surfaces and standard model areas. It's particularly effective for:

Applying efficient base coats to armor panels and body sections
