Which 'old' Shining Gold do you mean?

It's been through several variations.


The version just prior to the change in '12.

That was my first thought, but I'm not sure how available they are here. I don't think The War Store carries them.

ETA: Just googled and found a place here in IL that has them. I'll check into that.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683737/8522443.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683737/8522443.page GMT Is There a Gold Close to the Old Citadel Shining Gold?
You might actually be better looking at bronzes, rather than golds, for a closer match.


For some other ideas, Dakka has a handy paint compatibility chart in the Articles section here: http://www.dakkadakka.com/wiki/en/Paint_Range_Compatibility_Chart]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683737/8522460.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683737/8522460.page GMT Is There a Gold Close to the Old Citadel Shining Gold?

They are available in the US from Scale Creep Miniatures.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683737/8522516.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683737/8522516.page GMT Is There a Gold Close to the Old Citadel Shining Gold?

Ah, ok. The Coat D'Arms Bright Gold is a match for the original Shining Gold, but it's considerably paler than the later Shining Gold... Closer to Burnished Gold than Shining.

Thanks for the info. I was kind of afraid the Coat D'arms might be a pale gold. It looked that way from the color swatch I saw on line. I've not looked at Model Master yet, there may be a workable solution there. I wash with Army Painter Strong Tone, than high light with ~ 70:30 silver to gold mix, so it doesn't need to be an exact match, but it needs to be relatively close. I'll look into Vallejo Model Color as well. I do have the compatibility chart book marked, but I'm thinking those are the Coat D'arms Citadel colors, since the Vallejo Polished Gold is listed as the equivalent of Shining Gold, and it's very pale. The quest continues...

Thanks, that's the place I found. Just curious, have you dealt with them?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683737/8522755.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683737/8522755.page GMT Is There a Gold Close to the Old Citadel Shining Gold?

Yes, he has a very good reputation. However whenever I dealt with him it was always at his shop when he was in Cincinnati. I really hated it when he moved ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683737/8522761.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683737/8522761.page GMT Is There a Gold Close to the Old Citadel Shining Gold? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683737/8522766.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683737/8522766.page GMT Is There a Gold Close to the Old Citadel Shining Gold? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683737/8572286.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683737/8572286.page GMT
