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.

Solid brush with good point
Precision brush with good durability, very well suited for miniature painting. I recommend it especially for fine details.

Excellent replacement for paint pots
I recommend this product for model or miniature painters seeking to replace paint pots with better containers for keeping their paints free from drying. The dropper bottle also helps to add a precise amount of paint to your palette or into your airbrush cup. In most cases (like with Citadel paints) I recommend to thin your paints with airbrush thinner or flow improver before transferring it, and to add 1-2 mixing balls to your dropper bottle after transfer, to help properly mix the paint before using it.
