The Specialist for Fine Details

Precision Control for the Smallest Features.

When it comes to the final, most intricate stages of a painting project, the Citadel Small Layer Brush is your most trusted ally. This brush is specifically designed for high-detail work that requires a steady hand and a microscopic touch. Whether you are painting the glowing lenses of a Space Marine’s helmet, the pupils of a wizard's eyes, or the razor-thin edge highlights on a sword, this brush provides the control needed to finish your models to a professional standard.

Why the Small Layer Brush is a Hobby Essential

  • Ultra-Fine Point: The brush tapers to a needle-sharp tip, allowing you to place a single dot of paint exactly where you want it without disturbing the surrounding colors.

  • Short, Responsive Bristles: The bristles are shorter than the Medium Layer brush, which minimizes "flex" and gives you 1:1 feedback. This is crucial for maintaining a straight line during delicate edge highlighting.

  • Engineered for Layer Paints: It is perfectly balanced to work with the thinner consistency of Citadel Layer paints and Shades, ensuring the paint doesn't flood the model's surface.

  • Synthetic Durability: Made from high-quality synthetic fibers, it maintains its shape and sharp point through many sessions, resisting the curling and splaying often seen in lower-quality detail brushes.

How to Care for Your Small Layer Brush

  1. Tip Only: With a brush this small, it is vital to only ever get paint on the very tip. If paint gets into the ferrule (the metal part), the brush will lose its precision point almost immediately.

  2. Moisture Control: Before dipping into paint, slightly dampen the bristles and wick off the excess water. This helps the paint flow smoothly and prevents it from drying too quickly on such a small surface area.

  3. Reshape After Use: After cleaning with water, gently pull the bristles through your fingers or lips (if safe) to reform the point before storing it.
