Go raid the dust pan brush bristles mate. Sooooooooo easy to glue them on.

Thanks for clarifying, Nigel.

I clearly need something special, after Phil's pink bristles and your silver wire!

Go for gold then

Or champagne

In fact there's a bewildering number of options

Get one with black nylon bristles, then you won't have to paint it. 👍

I'll be getting some strange looks in the hardware store as I size up their brushes for plucking!

That's the next thing I've been pondering, from what I can tell they seem to have been painted grey the same as the backpack.

I have found an alternative possible solution, having popped into a model railway shop yesterday. 0.3mm nickel silver wire, for less than the price of a dustpan and brush. It may also persuade me to add flagpoles to my HI ships in due course.
