Jeral Tidwell Signature Brushes Set of SixMack/Tidwell brushes? Well, I didn't set out to
reinvent the wheel, however, I wanted to make a brush set for other
artists like myself, illustrators who work in a few mediums. When you're
working on finks, eyeballs, monsters, etc...these brushes will prove
themselves invaluable. The purpose of the set is to make all of your
detail work faster and easier, plain and simple. These brushes work
great with enamels, acrylics, oils, and I'm sure they will work with
just about any other medium. The handles are a little fatter in the
belly (where you grab 'em), so they have a little more room for
normal-sized hands (see the picture for a good idea). It's not much, but
I like to think it's just enough. The bristles vary depending on the
brush size and configuration. The smaller brushes are made of a softer,
fine quality synthetic. The large flat and the long outliner are made
with golden synthetic. I chose synthetic because these brushes are much
easier to care for and keep their shape extremely well. Both types of
bristles have smooth paint delivery while keeping a little spring to
them. All of the brushes are super useful and you will find yourself
reaching for them in a hundred different situations. They blend paint
really well without the brush strokes of stiffer bristles. They also
work for lines, shading, and for sharp detail. The brushes really speak
for themselves. There are a couple of other brushes that the set needs,
so we are working on those now. I know there is no perfect brush or
brush set for everyone, but I seriously doubt you'll find a more useful
brush set at this price point or any for that matter. Not to mention,
they are the only brushes on Earth with brass knuckles stamped on the
handles!
