I've been looking through the store as I've been talking painting in various places and have some questions.

Paint Set 1 and Paint Set 2; what colours are in them?

What material is used for the bristles on the Pro Brushes (08550 etc), sable or synthetic?

The 086XXX brushes clearly state they are sable on their individual pages, are you expecting to get a restock of these?

The 8550 set is synthetic. As shown in this picture, the package is labeled "golden taklon" http://www.miniature...50-pr-1474.html I've been using it for a couple years now, buy a new set at Reapercon every spring. I like it, but then I prefer the synthetics to sable because I like the slightly stiffer bristles. As synthetic brushes go, I think it's a pretty good quality set. I've certainly used worse. YMMV.

Yes, we have a big order in for the Kolinsky brushes, we are just waiting for it to get here now.

Nice, can't wait, are you doing a pre-order?

Thanks for the information on the brushes folks.

Any chance I can get a list of the contents of the paint sets?

I suspect you're talking about the HD Paint Sets? HD Set #1 has 29801-29818 and 29837. HD Set #2 has 29819-29836 and 29838. If you look at the pictures (enlarged), you can barely make out these numbers on the back of the boxes.

The regular paint sets indicate the range of Core MSP paints they include in the descriptions. Depending on what you're looking for, Reaper also offers a Build Your Own Paint Set (54 or 108 MSPs) option.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Serenity.

I'm now feeling quite daft for not looking at the "back of box" images - though it would be great if they were larger.
