R2ED Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Hmm.. Not sure I'd go for them. Just from what I can see they look very much like the synthetics you'd get on Amazon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the white ones do. But the new black ones look more like Citadel to me. 6 for $30 - too good to be true? 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ced1106 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 (edited) Looked in the comments. Favorable feedback. Also, the guy's run multiple brush KS and supplies retail stores? Also: "$50,000-- It is tradition to give all my paint brush backers a free extra set and I am doing it again!! If you back a pledge that includes the Maxton Black Paint Brush Set you will get an additional set when we hit this goal." $8 shipping to USA. So $40 for 12 brushes. Fauxhammer review. He likes the smaller brushes. "Screw the other brushes in the range. Get the #00. Hell, get ten of the #00." https://www.fauxhammer.com/reviews/ghost-brushes-brush-set-review/ So I've asked the creator how to get 12 #00 brushes, white or black, once the SG is hit. I'll let you know what I find out. Could always just buy retail, since that's his objective, anyway. Thanks for mentioning this KS!

I've have one in the bag so far with loose bristles, which is for the price is fine. The tips don't curl any faster than the expensive ones, they are mostly all made out of the same nylon that likely comes out of the same handful of factories. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteWulfe Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 My biggest issue is there seems to be a lot more hype and marketing than any actual information on the brushes, and there appears to be a lack of close up photos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ced1106 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 (edited) Ghost has put up his previous white brushes on eBay, with photos. $6 for two brushes plus $5 for shipping. Search on "ghost brush". If you want more brushes, he sells sets and I'm sure he'll sell bulk. Send him a note via KS! Good luck!

Zloyduh Posted February 25 Author Share Posted February 25 With the update this night, he said he will honor the stretch goal even if we don't get there. That's cool. I'm in for the 6 new black brushes set. Which means I'll be getting 2 sets for the same price. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
