AOS "starter" brush vs. Omega 599 or 11047

tl;dr version: Does anyone have pics of an AOS "Starter" brush next to an Omega 599 or 11047?



My first shaving brush was that little AOS Pure Badger brush that comes in their $25 starter kit. I got rid of it because I'm not a huge fan of the prickliness of "pure"-grade badger hair. It did make a nice little travel brush, and I'm sure whoever bought it from me on the BST is enjoying it (I don't even remember...probably a newbie kit or something).

But I've long been intrigued by a couple of the little Omegas, namely the 11047 "mixed midget" which has both boar and badger hair, or the 599 which has silvertip badger. Now, I've tried silvertip and I'm not a huge fan, but I like the couple boar brushes I've tried, and I've read some rave reviews about this little 11047 boar/badger blend brush.

Has anyone used both the AOS "starter" brush and the Omega 11047? If you still own both of them, could you please post a picture of them next to each other in this thread? Thanks!
