The brush does not directly apply the paint, but can lightly stroke the painted area with the tip of the brush to blur the border between the colours. It is useful for creating gradations as it can blur even the smallest details. Our company repeated the test many times and created this "Specially Selected Flat Brush for Animation - Tan No. 8". This product is a luxurious gem, infused with meticulous manual craftsmanship. It is recommended for professional creators in painting and animation production, as well as hobbyists and students who draw animation backgrounds. Main raw material:goat hair Full length:265mm Brush head Width:21mm Brush head length:26mm Product Details:Designed for writing animated backgrounds.

TOKUSEI-ANIME-HIRAFUDE No,5 / 特製 アニメ用平筆 5号
¥2,310($15.71)
Usage:Animation Background Art,Design,Watercolor Painting,Text depiction Main raw material:highest grade goat's tail Full length:252mm Brush head Width:13mm Brush head length:24mm Product Details:Designed for writing animated backgrounds TSpecial Flat Brush for Hand-Drawn Animation Background Art This specially made flat brush is designed for hand-painted backgrounds in animation. It is ideal not only for base coating and line work in animation background painting, but also for Nihonga (Japanese painting), graphic design, and poster work. The brush features a thick, well-structured tip that holds a large amount of paint, allowing for broad coverage with a single stroke. Thanks to its generous volume, it also excels at lifting color (such as creating highlights or wiping away paint to reveal the paper base when painting clouds). Compared to the “Animation Flat Brush - Kozue” of the same size, this Special Animation Flat Brush contains more goat hair, giving the tip extra volume. However, it is made using carefully selected, slightly slender and resilient high-quality goat hair (from the tail of mountain goats), allowing the brush tip to close neatly for precise line work as well. If you're looking for a standard flat brush with balanced thickness and firmness, we recommend the “Animation Flat Brush - Kozue.” However, this Special Animation Flat Brush is especially suitable for animation background studios seeking efficiency in large-scale base coating work. All of our animation brushes and tools are tested using materials commonly used in professional background art: the “New TMK Poster Extra Thick” paper by Muse and poster colors by Nicker. Our products are handcrafted by artisans in Kumano, Hiroshima, a town renowned for its brush-making tradition. Each brush is carefully made using time-honored techniques passed down through generations, preserving the spirit of Japanese craftsmanship and culture.

It is ideal not only for base coating and outlining in animation background work, but also for use in Nihonga (Japanese painting), design, and poster production. The “Animation Flat Brush – Kozue” is made with a thicker brush head than standard design flat brushes, allowing it to hold more paint and deliver solid coverage with a single stroke. Thanks to its generous tip volume, it also performs well for paint-lifting techniques (such as wiping off paint to expose the paper surface when creating clouds or highlights). Despite its volume, the tip closes cleanly, making it perfectly suitable for line work as well. The sharply tapered tip makes it particularly effective for painting structures, edges, and surfaces—an excellent choice for background artists who prefer flat brushes for detailed rendering instead of round (senbyō) brushes. If you’re seeking a flat brush with even greater paint capacity for large-scale base coating, we recommend our “Special Animation Flat Brush”, which offers even more volume than this Kozue model and is designed for efficient work in busy background art studios. All of our animation brushes are tested using materials commonly employed in professional background art production: New TMK Poster Extra Thick paper (by Muse) and poster colors (by Nicker). Our brushes are handcrafted in Kumano, Hiroshima, a town known as Japan’s brush-making capital.

ANIME-FUDE MADO / アニメ用筆 今日も窓
¥1,100($7.48)
Usage:Animation Background Art,Design,Watercolor Painting,Text depiction Main raw material: Full length:237mm Brush head Width:4mm Brush head length:18mm Product Details:Designed for writing animated backgrounds Flat Brush Specially Designed for Painting Windows in Animation Backgrounds We developed this window-painting-specific brush in response to a request from an art director who wanted a brush that would be easier for beginners to use. In traditional animation background painting, shaping the brush tip precisely to match what you want to paint—especially windows—requires skill and experience. This brush was designed to simplify that process. One of its key features is that it allows the artist to freely adjust the tip width between approximately 1mm and 5mm, all with a single brush. What’s more, once shaped, the tip holds its width stably during use, so the line thickness doesn’t unintentionally change while painting. The brush has an unusually long hair length for a fine brush—18mm—which allows it to hold a generous amount of paint. As a result, it reduces the risk of running out of pigment midway when painting wide window frames or long lines. Despite being a Size 2 brush, it holds a significant volume of paint, making it suitable even for detailed filling and precision work. We recommend trying it before window painting becomes your least favorite task! All of our brushes and tools for animation are developed and tested using materials commonly used in professional background art production, including New TMK Poster Extra Thick paper (Muse) and poster colors (Nicker). These brushes are handcrafted in Kumano, Hiroshima, a town renowned as the heart of Japanese brush-making. Each brush is carefully made by our artisans, preserving traditional techniques while honoring the cultural legacy of Japanese craftsmanship.
