Anyone ever used Roubloff brushes? If so are they any good?

Just seen these brushes on amazon and wondering if they’re any good?

Professional Fine Paint Brush (Set) / Kolinsky Sable / Oil, Acrylic, Watercolour / Roubloff / Detail Brush / Size 00 / 0 / 1 / 1,2 / 1,5 / 2 / 2,5 / 3 (Set) https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01IGIHVUY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_B7o9DbAWG1NFB

 

They’re actually getting great reviews on Amazon. I might pick up the set and try them out. 

Never heard of them, I'm afraid.

 

If you're looking for decent brushes, I would strongly recommend Raphael Series 8404.  They're excellent brushes, and very highly-tapered (moreso than the W&N Series 7s), so they retain a fine point (I can trace the panel lines on Aeronautica Imperialis Thunderbolt fighters with a size 3). 

 

Realistically, a size 2/0 (fine detail) and size 1 (detail) would cover you for most situations, for around £16 delivered.  Add in a larger (possibly cheaper) brush for area coverage, and you're sorted.

 

Dunno if that's any help.

The price is what made me buy them as well.

I will get some rafaels down the line for the really fiddly stuff I think, but the roubollofs are pretty good for the price I feel. Nice point and keep paint well.

 

There is also a brush Set from warcolours at a similar price point that you could try out if you are interested.
