Excellent "basic" brush for miniature paining with acrylic paints
Raphael 8404 is the best brush for painting miniatures I ever had. It keeps excellent point and holds paint very well in it's belly. Bristles are returning to its original form quite easily. Currently this is my main paint brush for miniature painting with acrylic paints. I am using it together with different size brushes from the same line: 0 for edge highlighting, 2 and 3 for basecoating and two-brush wet blending. For non-acrylic paints (like Humbrol Enamels or Vallejo Liquid Gold) and "heavy duty" (like taking paints out of pots and mixing them on a palette or in the airbrush cup) I use cheap synthetic brushes available locally. I am using "The Masters" Brush Cleaner and Preserver after paining in order to clean the brushes from paint and shape them for storage. For the past 10 years of miniature painting I was using various brushes, both with synthetic and natural hair bristles, trying to find one that suits me best. I've tried Raphael 8404 after watching video's from Miniac and Squidmar Miniatures on YouTube and I am very happy that I have followed their advice. I don't know why it has mixed reviews on eBay - personally I had no problems with it. All in all, I highly recommend this brush. It keeps fine point, holds paint well, and has a very good "snap". It's a good value for it's prize.

Whats the point?
Really disappointed with this brush. I generally take good care of my brushes (brush soap etc) and I have some R&C S:33 brushes which are a good 2-3 year old and still maintain their point and shape. This brush however - despite the good reviews - looses it shape as soon as paint hits the bristles. I've tried the usual tricks to try and re-condition the brush but nothing seems to work. I have some cheap synthetic brushes which are much better that this 'premium' brush.

Expensive but worth it
Very expensive, but best brush I have ever used. I use it to paint miniatures and the point stays sharp and collected for several days in a row, only rarely needing to be cleared of excess dry paint with master brush soap every week or two. Extremely high quality. The lettering on the handle faded within a month however, a d quite expensive. If you are tired of fighting with your brushes to keep a sharp point after every stroke, consider buying this.

Excellent brush.
Superb brush which keeps its point, holds sufficient paint and has speeded up my painting of 28mm Wargames figures. I was so pleased with the results it gave that I bought another. In my opinion, better than Windsor and Newton Series 7.
