Lettering is too thin for me to paint, I'd rather leave it than lose it.
Family photo, 28mm, 24mm, and 20mm.
New brush has not been used yet, will fluff like the others soon enough.

Thank you sir!
That small one is one of my favorite brushes, 18 to 22mm is all anyone really needs IMO. But that bruiser on the left is impressive to look at.

Thank you sir! I saw one of those big ones years ago on another forum and I just had to find one!

I know you would probably not sell it but if you did what would be your asking price for the big brush?
If you are on the fence about selling it let me know, I will pay for your work and effort that's gone into bringing that brush to life.
Sleep on it, I will give it a loving home!

I thought as much and to be honest I would not sell if I was lucky enough to have one like that.I will entertain any offer over six figures.

My 1918 Clinton with it's original black horse hair,... started shedding 30+ hairs every time I used it, so I snatched it out.
Smallest knot I had on hand was a 20mm but it was too big.
So I made a thing and trimmed it down to a nice cylindrical 19mm.
