What is the name of the goldish color? I want to paint my Mechanicum with that color but they will be mostly black with some gold trim. Thank you in advance.



I got the image from here: http://bloodofkittens.com/wargaminghub/2014/09/16/castellax-battle-automata-2/

To many unpainted models to count.

A good suggestion from Backspacehacker, but without reading his comment my initial thoughts were:

No idea what it really is, but I'd try to recreate it using a base coat of Warplock Bronze and mixing it with Runefang Steel.

Could also be one of metals from a Forgeworld, Thallax Gold, maybe?

It may not even be GW or FW! Imagine that...

Your best shot really is to try and shoot the image owner a message, the best any of us can do is guess.

To me it looks similar to Vallejo Model Air Gold after a hefty Sepia wash.

This mostly works best indeed

Well my mate Broncofish actually did reveal how he painted the brass (Vallejo colours) in the comments section here:

http://aleatorblog.de/thallax-cohort/

Good luck with that reciepe, I really like his colour scheme, too.

I have to admit it's a bit irritating that our blog posts got reposted on bloodofkittens though
