daler rowney system3 is a famous brand for acrylics no? THe brushes must be very expansive... And I have read somewhere that it's kind of useless to buy expansive brushes for acrylics

daler rowney system3 brushes are aimed at students so they're well priced. for example a set which has two Round brushes, a Short Flat and a Filbert is about £7.00. with how bad the pound is at the moment i think that is about the same in euros. [link] 2nd from the bottom. if you looked around abit i bet you could find it alot cheaper. also brushes last as long as maintain them. if you leave them in water pots over night or don’t clean them properly there not going to last. if you keep them clean after you used them and straighten the bristles together they last quite a while.
i just think you might be well suited to these brushes because of shafts they have. They kinda feel more like holding pens than brushes. [link]

wow yeh, those are well expansive there. >.<
the only thing i can suggest is maybe try to find brushes with soft bristles and that your comfortable in using. if you can get something with those characteristics you might be able to get something alot cheaper. ^^
