The Painbrush was revealed on 16 May 2023 in the Sizzle Season 2023 trailer.[1] On 18 May 2023, Nintendo revealed the weapon in a dedicated post on their Twitter. The post shows that the Painbrush will have Curling Bomb and Wave Breaker.[2]

It rolls with a speed comparable to the Octobrush and also has more range. Though, unlike other brushes, which typically fling ink in a wide area, the Painbrush spreads ink in a much more narrow field, straight ahead of the user, similar to the Splatana's horizontal slash. It takes at least 3 ranged hits to splat an opponent.

Quotes

SRL Ballistics back again! The S-BLAST was and IS cool, but we can only watch the video so many times. Now we're on to the Painbrush, the biggest, heaviest, and NEWEST brush in the game! Please hold while we watch and analyze our new Painbrush video 2,479 times.

And here it is in action! Note how the first swing is slow, but subsequent swings fling ink fast and wide. Plus, you can hold down the Button to advance quickly as needed. If battling is an art, this brush could be... an art tool? IDK. We're scientists, not artists.
