Been fairly new to this hobby. Got frustrated with my pot of Retributor Armor I bought before I knew any better being just a big chunk of goop and not looking awesome on my set of Chaos Space Marines I’ve been painting. Found this channel and by extension this gold recipe, and was so intrigued I had to assemble the resources… got my Vallejo metal colors and my GSW pigment in the mail finally, and WOW, this stuff is incredible. The richness of the color, the shine and reflectiveness are absolutely stunning. Amazing video, now I’m going back and binge watching a bunch of these hobby cheating videos!!!

It will be helpful to look up gold leafing and antiquing tutorials, such as those used to reproducing antique gold art frames and moulding. Wood mouldings are typically underpainted with gesso primer, a red ochre or terracotta primer, and yellow ochre. The primers help with adhesion, and also smooth out the wood grain, so perhaps with miniatures they can be skipped, although I would try a thinned red ochre primer as it may help add warmth. Yellow ochre, though, is essential for disguising finely detailed areas in wood mouldings, where it can be tricky to place gold leaf. For miniatures, it would disguise streaking when used under gold paint. Similar to a tinted primer basecoat, like residential painters use under vibrant housepaints. Many, if not all, vibrantly coloured paints in all kinds of applications (including fine art, miniature painting, residential and commercial painting) benefit from a tinted undercoat. That is, an undercoat that is close to the final top coat, but made with an opaque base, usually white (tint) or black (shade), depending on the colour. The opaque base will not be as vibrant as the top coat, but is close enough that it will hide streaking. Then only 1 or 2 top coats of the final colour, thinned if necessary, can be used. The amount of pigment held in vibrant paints necessarily makes them translucent and prone to streaking. I'm curious if you've ever tried sizing and metal leaf, with sepia ink for aging, and what your results were. I've used metal leaf for jewellery, especially the tiny flakes, which are easier to apply than the squares. It's more annoying than paint, but much nicer results. I skip clear topcoats, as they just dull the finish. One project I did a topcoat for (ceiling medallion) ended up looking like spray paint in the end. I'm thinking of trying epoxy resin, but for miniatures, that wouldn't work.

Great video! Its not as good as your mix but sometimes if I just want something super quick for a small area, I cheat and use the gold Sakura pen touch paint markers. Its a pigment ink so it levels out very nicely if you put it on wet enough.. I’m not sure if it’s acrylic ink, but I’ve used it w/o any problem on top and beneath acrylic paint/primer and even with acrylic based varnish on top. The reflectivity is much higher than the acrylic paints, so it looks more real, but wouldn’t be a good choice if you’re going for a matte look.

It's worth remembering that in a medieval/fantasy setting, the gold won't be high-purity modern metals, and different gold alloys do have fairly different colours. Not quite as different as _some_ of the paints there, but still worth noting.
@Blackchance

Seems like that's what weathering, washing, chipping, and blending is for. To me, you should have a "pure" gold as a base to work from and then tarnish it or add inks etc to change it into a less pure gold if that's the look you're going for, rather than settle for a crappier paint that doesn't cover well and doesn't look like anything, let alone even an "impure" gold.

The Romans frequently changed the purity of their silver. Were all societies as advanced as the Romans? No. But ancient/ medieval societies did indeed know how to smelt metal and among those they were best at were gold and silver. Could they reach our 99.99% purity? No. But they could reach very high purities. Gold and silver melt at low temperatures. Iron and the making of steel are different that requires heat that acients and medieval metalsmiths would struggle to attain and maintain.

Pretty much every acrylic metallic paint that isn't VMC or the newish GSW pigments compares poorly to those paints in one facet or another or multiples.

If so could you paint over metal color black steel instead and how would it affect the result? 6) the gold is my base colour and one of the colours I will be painting over is white, any advice for how to go about this?

I apply careful glazes and targetted shading. 5) Won't make a difference. 6) Paint an opauqe mid-tone grey over those areas first and then build up to the white.

Your recipe is nice looking but I'm wondering what you would use to shade or wash it. Wouldn't anything used just ruin the beautiful gold color you just carefully mixed up?

Now THAT is proper gold. Say, what would I thin it with if I wanted to airbrush it or left it on the palette for too long and it started drying out? Water? Flow aid? Iso alcohol? Didn't use VMC paints yet.

i remember you did the video on the green stuff gold pigment, i purchased 3/4 cuz the store was sold out of the antique gold. Only one store in Canada caries them and they're still sold out. but i find it works really nice. You gave me an idea to mix the gold with the copper pigments and the vallejo metal varnish.

So I've been using the gold+copper approach, and it has the advantage, I think, that you can adjust the mix to get that reddish effect on the insides of creases. I guess that still applies to the new recipe. About the colour-others here have noted that (of course) “gold” comes in redder, whiter and greener varieties, but-I get the feeling that some of the paint manufacturers may have spent less time polishing the silverware and, well, being thankful that they don't need to put so much effort into the gold and gold plated pieces than some of us (speaking purely as a clergy kid, here ;) ).

Have you tried mixing up a whole bottle of it? Between the VMC gold, copper, and the GSW pigments, I wonder if you could mix up a few golds, bronzes, coppers, and work from those rather than mixing a bunch of paints and pigments every time.

Balthazar Gold - An explanation! This paint is a base coat, intended to be paired with a second layer paint Gehenna's Gold on top. The effect isn't too bad. This was the paint generation before Retributor, liberator, Auric etc. So technically this wasn't a fair comparison except your goal is a single layer so it may not qualify in the first place. Thank you for the video, I think your home made paint is great. Of the premades who was the winner in your opinion?

I think it is important to remember that there is a difference between white, yellow, rose, and green golds, as well as differences between the karat. A 16 karat yellow gold will be more bright yellow, while a 22 karat gold looks more orange. All of these colors can be considered golds, just different karats or types. Seriously, look up pictures of the variants in real golds. Edited for typos.

I love your recipe, actually I love it so much I don't think I can like any other gold colour now. But I have one problem with it. Because we use airbrush paint, flow of it is really nice, and if you want to paint big surface it is great, but when I try to paint some small stuff it is hard to control. I try not to use it on wet palette and let it dry little first, but it have downsides. Maybe you found better solution to do some precision work ?
