Looks like liberator gold to me.
Here you have a fast chart of a few close ones with painted models.

Id say liberator gold, then a dry brushing with the griffin gold, or it could be a gold from forgeworlds own range of paints, not very familier with those ones

That's kind of what I was thinking, but I don't want to order Forgeworld paints just for this

Doesn't look like a GW paint to me, but yeah perhaps Forgeworld. It looks like Vallejo Old Gold, or Andrea gold... the "old" style golds that have a little green in them.

You might be able to achieve that with washes over silver if you are sticking with just GW paints.

Silly me didn't even think of trying Vallejo. It's only going to be to a tabletop standard, so not looking for any fancier, more time-consuming standards. Thanks for the input!

Yeah I've made very similar golds with Vallejo Model colors...

Basecoat VMC Brass, shade with umber and/or black to your liking, highlight with VMC Old Gold; then VMC Old Gold mixed with VMC Gold if you want Bright - or VMC Old Gold mixed with VMC Silver if you want pale (more like the picture).

I feel like it could be Liberator Gold PLUS something...maybe solved with just a selective wash...idk. Fulgurite Copper had me hopeful for a minute but it's a little too brown I think. It's almost like the gold has a hint of black or a similar dark color mixed in...

Probably a drybrush of griffin gold, as moodster95 said + agrax. Be aware that FW photos, as many of them, are usually post processed, so a few colors or contrast may vary from the original to the final image.
