The...Thank you Monty, that's very kind of you!<br /><br />The gold was done in these steps:<br />1. Citadel Balthasar Gold.<br />2. Wash with Army Painter Strong Tone ink.<br />3. Highlight with Citadel Balthasar Gold.<br />4. Highlight with Citadel Gehenna's Gold.<br />5. Highlight with Auric Armour Gold.<br />6. On the mask of the Prince I did a final highlight using a very light drybrush of VMC Natural Steel.<br /><br />It seems like a lot of steps but it didn't take too long and it was worth the effort I think. I don't use a lot of Citadel paints these days, but I have to say those three gold colours are very, very nice.Jonas Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03104129336412766484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7745163844304609941.post-90299863614174338172013-04-29T08:54:42.193+02:002013-04-29T08:54:42.193+02:00Thanks Ray, I'm glad you like them!

Mixing in the barded horses was a great call. <br /><br />If I can ask, did you do a base gold color, sepia wash and then the highlight? Whatever it was, it works nicely!
