Hi everyone, When I am painting I often encounter a problem. There are a lot of small hairs and dust sticking to my model while I am painting. It also gets underneath the paint. I always wash my models before basecoating them. Does anyone know what could be causing this problem. Mayby it is caused by my brushes, or I clean them the wrong way.
Shedding brushes contribute to this quite a lot. although sometimes it actually is dust. I find my brushes shed more when doing things like dry brushing, So I keep a pair of tweezers near by just in case. Oh also old brushes tend to shed more.
I try and save my sturdy cheep brushed for dry brushing, But it still wears them out pretty fast. Ps. you can try shampooing and conditioning your brushes... this might help a little.
