For those interested, here's how I did it, what I got right, and what was a mistake.
While I didn't know anything about badger brushes, I made the right choice, and bought two average priced good quality very different custom brushes from Rudy - 22/50 mm TGN Grade A bulb in an Emperor style handle, and a 22/48 mm TGN Finest fan in a Duke 3 style handle. They became my solid base for comparison, and my next choices branched out from there. This was the right choice because each following purchase was based on the experience with these quite different brushes in every aspect. My mistake though was that I didn't wait enough to appreciate what I already had, but started looking for something different too quickly. So I didn't give enough time to myself to let my preferences evolve. As it turned out, two of my brushes that I bought in the beginning, are currently in my top 3 list.
