He used round brushes. Fur bristles for washes and softness and most likely hog hair for a more coarse look- much like what we use today.I'm sure he used many different sizes. When he painted the Systine Chapel he used large pieces of paper with holes punched in them along the main lines of his work, They were mounted to the ceiling and then he would take cheese cloth bags filled with charcoal and slam them against the paper. The charcoal would stick to the wall through the holes so when the paper was removed, Michael had a dotted outline as a guide to paint by.
