JackStreicher Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Hello I‘ve been watching a lot of Miniwargaming lately and I realised that they have used a very bright yellow-ish Gold for their Stormcasts.Clearly recognizable on the ConcussorsDoes anyone know the Colors name and brand? if not: Any idea how to achieve such a gold? (Glazing with yellow? It seems almost green-ish) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManyBothans Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 washes may well have been used to enhance the golds...the terrain pieces were washed with a green for sure...what combo of wash i have no idea?, vallejo makes a nice bright gold "Glorious gold" it's very vibrant and goes on well over retributor gold (i use that as a base for golds as it goes on so very well and doesn't require multiple coats to look good) seraphim sepia helps make golds brighter... if you wanted a green tinge i'd used a green shade like Waywatcher green, not a wash as you want to tint the whole colour not just wash the recesses. that's my 2 cents. did you think to email mini wargaming and ask them who painted them?... Cheers, MB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stato Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Looks a lot like a retributor spray (the fact that a lot of the detail isnt picked out suggested its a gold base they then picked out only the key details), with a coat of Reikland gloss wash. This gives a very bright rich colour. 12 hours ago, ManyBothans said: washes may well have been used to enhance the golds...the terrain pieces were washed with a green for sure...what combo of wash i have no idea?, Interestingly, the gold on their scenery is generally sprayed/painted green and then drybrushed gold (they explained this on a terrain video). They paint up so much stuff everything is a shortcut as its all filmed at arms length so you never see they havnt dont all the details on the models or scenery.

I tried a green basecoat and brushed it with liberator gold. I made a yellow glaze and applied it on the gold (not bad but the gold loses too much shine) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
