Synthetic miniature angled brush for targeted detail and hard-to-reach areas on miniatures.
The Da Vinci Micro Nova Series 175 is a synthetic miniature angled brush designed for detail work in hard-to-reach areas. The angled tip gives a different approach angle than standard pointed rounds, making it useful for painting recesses, undersides, and areas where a straight brush would be awkward.
Angled brushes are a niche tool in miniature painting, but painters who use them swear by their ability to reach spots that round brushes cannot. The Micro Nova 175 combines this utility with Da Vinci's synthetic quality and miniature-scale sizing, making it a useful addition to a well-rounded brush collection.

Brush sizes are not standardised across brands — a Size 1 from one maker may differ from another. These brushes are handcrafted, so individual dimensions may vary by 1–2 mm.
How we measure a brushA visual guide to the measurements shown in the size chart above.
These are the same measurements shown in the size chart above. Brush sizes are not standardised across brands, so use these dimensions when comparing brushes within a series or between manufacturers.
Tuft Length
The visible length of the brush hairs, measured from the ferrule to the tip.
Belly Diameter
The widest point of the brush head. On round brushes, this is the widest part of the belly.
Total Length
The full measurement from the tip of the brush to the end of the handle.
How to care for your brush
Rinse after use, clean with brush soap as needed. Reshape the angled profile carefully after washing. Synthetic fibres are durable. Store so the angled tip is not crushed or bent.
