Hello Guys!
Quick question... where do you purchase your brushes at a good price?
Looking to buy red sbale brushes, specifically flats, rounds and spotters (0, 1/0 thru 5/0.
Need to upgrade my old brushes.
Also, trying to buy Vallejo paints for the first time... where's the best place to buy them?
Thanks!
Jorge

Hi Jorge,
I have a very hard time finding good quality brushes locally, so I've been ordering mine from Dick Blick Art Materials:
W&N Series 7 Kolinski Sable
BTW: I also get my weathering pigments from Dick Blick:
Gamblin Artist Dry Pigments[/url]
For Vallejo paints, I also have trouble getting them locally. My LHS doesn't want to invest in the paint line, so I've found Colorado Miniatures to be a good source:
Vallejo Acrylic Paints
Both businesses are very reliable in my experience and the prices are pretty good, as well. Shipping to Puerto Rico should be no worry for either.
I'm sure there are many other sources, but these are the ones I use.
