Silver Fox Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 That is very smart indeed, some lovely work there. I also don't think it is a million miles from my perception of the colour but maybe some of our NZ based members would like to comment. My build of '56 will cunningly avoid this issue.

trickyrich Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Looks close, but maybe a bit too much on the copper side, photos seem to show it to have a whitish tint, though that could be just the photo. Model Master's Metalized Gold looks a close match, as mention just know I'll have to do some experimentation!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonymousDFB1 Posted August 19, 2013 Author Share Posted August 19, 2013 I think I darkened the effect of the Alcad by spraying it over gloss back, so over a grey primer it would be lighter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickyrich Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Haven't used Alcad paints before, might have to give it a try. I have been trying to find out if there is a driect match for this gold, Tamiya X12 seems to be a close match. Will try it plus the Model Master Gold plus any others I think might be close.
