The Real Heavy Metal Antique Gold Set from Ionic Smart Colours is the ultimate choice for hobbyists looking to recreate the deep and timeless lustre of antique gold. A logical 3-step system simplifies the painting process considerably giving you consistent and impressive results on everything from ancient relics to heraldic armour.

Timeless gold lustre in three logical steps
The Antique Gold series is designed to capture the rich and slightly muted tone of gold that has carried its lustre over the centuries. Using natural mica pigments a homogeneous coverage is achieved along with a lustre that feels genuine and substantial rather than glittery. The system guides you methodically through the painting: from a solid antique gold base via a specially formulated metallic wash that creates definition in every detail to the bright highlights that give the metal its sharp and reflective character.

• Antique Gold Base (IONIC-0816): The primary metallic colour with a deep rich gold tone that lays the foundation for the entire set.
• Antique Gold Metallic Wash (IONIC-0836): A unique product that creates natural depth and contrast in details without dulling or smudging the metallic sheen.
• Antique Gold Highlight (IONIC-0856): A lighter shade optimised for crisp edge painting and to simulate light reflections on the highest points.
