The master of micro-detail and extreme highlights.
When details become infinitesimal, the Citadel S Layer (Small Layer) brush is the ultimate tool every modeler can rely on. Designed by Games Workshop for applying Citadel Layer paints, this brush is the perfect choice for the finest edge highlights, eye pupils, microscopic runes, and fine finishes that elevate a miniature for gaming or display.
Its high-quality synthetic bristles are selected for maximum structural rigidity combined with a microscopic tip. This means the brush won’t bend unpredictably, ensuring the paint ends up exactly where you want it, with the precision of a scalpel.
Key Features
Rigid Microscopic Tip: Designed to maintain an ultra-sharp shape, ideal for drawing hair-thin lines and defining the most hidden recesses.
- Total Flow Control: The small tuft allows for the application of minimal amounts of paint, eliminating the risk of smudging or accidentally covering surrounding details.
- Highly Durable Synthetic Bristles: Unlike traditional precision brushes that tend to lose their tips quickly, Citadel’s blend is designed to withstand the effects of even the densest acrylic pigments.
- Highly Stable Handle: The ergonomic design ensures maximum feel and reduces micro-shake during surgical precision work.
Care and Maintenance Tips
Be careful with dilution: Due to the small size of the bristles, the paint on the S Layer brush tends to dry very quickly. Always dilute the paint slightly on the palette (preferably a wet palette) and wipe off the excess on a cloth before touching the miniature. Clean the tip frequently during the session to prevent the acrylic from solidifying between the bristles.
