Abteilung 502 Round Brush 6 (ABT830-6)

The size 6 is the big hitter of the round range — the largest paint load here, built for basecoating vehicles, big monsters and terrain rather than fine detail. It still tapers to a usable point when you need one, but its job is moving paint over a lot of surface, fast.

Best for

• Basecoating vehicles, large monsters and terrain pieces
• Big washes and glazes without constant reloading
• Blocking in large areas before you switch to a smaller brush for detail

The brush that turns an hour of coverage into ten minutes, leaving the fiddly stuff for a smaller size.

Synthetic bristles, largest paint load in the round range. Follow up with a 4 or 2 for the finer work — see the full brush range.
