Paint Brush Army Painter BR7036P Liner Brush Size 5/0 Single Brush

The Army Painter BR7036P Liner Brush Size 5/0 is a single precision brush designed for fine detail work on miniatures, models and small-scale hobby projects. The brush features a fine, pointed tip that enables controlled, thin lines and delicate highlights. Supplied as one piece, this liner brush is intended for hobbyists and model painters who require accurate strokes and a stable tip for intricate finishing tasks.

Advantages

This liner brush offers a very fine point for precision detailing and consistent paint flow for thin lines and highlights. The compact single-brush format provides direct control over brush pressure and direction. The slim profile is useful for reaching narrow areas on miniatures and delivering crisp edges without excessive paint load.

Suitable for

• Fine line work on miniatures and scale models
• Edge highlighting and pinstriping
• Detailing faces, eyes and small accessories
• Touch-ups and controlled washes in small areas

When it may not be suitable

The Size 5/0 liner is not intended for broad coverage, basecoating or applying large amounts of paint. For larger surfaces or faster coverage tasks, a flat or larger round brush will be more efficient. Users needing highly durable or synthetic-only bristles for heavy acrylic mediums should confirm the brush material before purchase.

Key specifications

• Brush type: Liner/pointed round
• Size: 5/0 (very fine)
• Intended use: Detail work on miniatures and scale models
• Format: Single brush
• Tip shape: Fine pointed tip for controlled lines and highlights

How to use

Load the brush with a small amount of thinned paint to maintain the fine point and avoid overloading. Use light pressure and short strokes for precise lines and highlights, and rinse the brush frequently to prevent paint build-up at the ferrule. For best results on miniatures, position the model securely and work under consistent light with magnification if needed to maintain control of the brush tip.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the brush size (5/0) matches the level of detail required for your projects
• Check whether the bristle material suits your preferred paints (water-based acrylics vs. enamels)
• Consider purchasing a small range of sizes if you need both fine detail and slightly broader lines

Usage recommendations

For long-lasting tip shape, clean the brush thoroughly after each session with appropriate brush cleaner or mild soap and reshape the point before drying. Store horizontally or with the bristles up to avoid deforming the fine tip.
