The small member of Army Painter’s angled drybrush pair, and the one that gets the most use in model railroading. Its 43-degree angle cut lets you attack a specific area — a radiator grille, a truck sideframe, a run of rivets, a course of brick — without dragging weathering across the whole model. Army Painter designed it for exactly that: drybrushing part of a model rather than all of it at once.

How is this different from the Large Drybrush?
Same 43-degree angle cut, smaller head. This one targets a specific area — a grille or a truck. The Large (BR7010P) covers a whole boxcar side or roof in fewer passes.
What is the 43-degree cut for?
It presents the bristle face flat against the model at a natural hand angle, so you are not twisting your wrist to make contact. It makes controlled, repeatable drybrushing much easier.
What can I use it for on a layout?
Rust streaks on hoppers, dust on trucks and underframes, highlighting rivet lines and grab irons, mortar in brick, and depth in rock castings.
How do I clean it?
Rinse in cold water right after use — drybrushing dries paint into the bristles fast. Store it tip-up with the cap on.
