The Real Heavy Metal Hollow Crown Gold Set from Ionic Smart Colours is the ultimate choice for hobbyists looking to achieve a classic and consistent metallic gold tone. A logical 3-step system eliminates the uncertainty of colour selection giving you consistent and majestic results on everything from royal insignia to ornate armour.

Classic gold lustre in three logical steps
The Hollow Crown Gold series is designed to mimic the depth and lustre found in real gold. Thanks to the use of natural mica pigments the colours have an extremely homogeneous coverage and a sophisticated shine that highlights the shape of the model. The system is structured to guide you methodically: from a solid gold base through precision shading with a dedicated metallic wash to the final highlights that give the metal its characteristic sharpness.
