Brush VALLEJO Vallejo Ammo Round Brush Premium Marta Kolinsky size 1

VALLEJO Vallejo Ammo Round Brush Premium Marta Kolinsky size 1 is a precision painting tool designed for modelers and miniature painters who need fine control. The brush features a tapered round tip made from Premium Marta Kolinsky hair, providing a sharp point, reliable spring and smooth paint release. It is intended for use with acrylics and model paints and supports detailed work such as highlights, edge painting and small-scale textures on models and scale kits.

Advantages

The Premium Marta Kolinsky hair offers excellent point retention and controlled paint flow, allowing for precise strokes and consistent coverage. The tapered round shape facilitates both thin lines and controlled washes depending on pressure and paint load. The ferrule and handle are designed to balance the brush for comfortable handling during extended painting sessions, while the construction resists splaying when cared for properly.

Suitable for

• Painting miniatures and figures with fine details
• Adding highlights, edge highlights and small accents on scale models
• Work requiring precise line work, thin layers and delicate blending

Key specifications

• Brush type: round (tapered tip)
• Hair: Premium Marta Kolinsky
• Size: 1 (suitable for detailed work)
• Compatible paints: acrylics and model paints
• Designed for precision, point retention and smooth paint flow

How to use

Dampen the brush slightly and load with a moderate amount of paint to maintain the tapered point. Use light pressure for thin hairlines and increased pressure for broader strokes; the brush will respond to changes in pressure and paint load. Rinse and reshape the point between colour changes to preserve the tip. Allow acrylic paints to thin appropriately for controlled flow rather than overloading the brush.

Usage recommendations

Clean with lukewarm water and mild soap after each session, reshape the tip and store horizontally or tip-up to prevent damage. Avoid soaking the ferrule for long periods and use appropriate thinner only when compatible with the paint system.
