ProArte Dry Board – Small DB-SML

The ProArte Dry Board – Small is a specialist hobby tool developed specifically for dry brushing. Manufactured in-house by ProArte, the board features a carefully designed etched surface that removes excess paint from your brush while helping maintain the ideal paint load for controlled highlighting and weathering techniques.

Created with input from experienced modellers, the board combines textured and absorbent areas to provide the perfect balance between wiping away surplus paint and retaining just enough pigment in the brush. This allows greater control when highlighting raised details, adding subtle wear effects or bringing out surface textures on miniatures, scale models and scenery.

The compact size makes it ideal for use on any modelling bench and easy to transport to clubs, shows or painting sessions. It is suitable for use with most dry brushes and works equally well with acrylic, lacquer and enamel paints once the appropriate drying stage has been reached.

Pair the Dry Board with our range of paint brushes for the best results, and explore our selection of weathering products to create realistic highlights, dust, chipping and worn finishes on your latest project.
