I use the dry brushes from Citadel. Mine are quite old but I think they still makes them, comes in three sizes. I think they are good value. However you can get kind of the same result by cutting off the tip of any old brush you have laying around, that's what I used to do.

I'm no pro at dry brushing--I usually go way too far with the technique. Well, lately I have been using some pastel pencils, good old #2 pencils , etc to apply highlighting that I would usually attempt dry brushing on. its easier, faster, and you can sharpen the pencils to a fine fine point to get into tight areas.

I use an old Humbrol brush (that I also use for cleaning my airbrush paint well).
