The Army Painter – John Blanche Masterclass: Emperor Gold – WP4009P
Colour: Rich warm gold
Finish: Metallic
Contents: 18 ml
The Army Painter John Blanche Masterclass Emperor Gold is a rich, warm metallic gold shade for miniature painting. The colour is ideal for decorative armour, relics, ornaments, weapon details and other surfaces where a deep, classic gold finish is desired.
Warm gold for characterful metallics
Emperor Gold works excellently as a base colour or mid-tone for golden surfaces. The warm shade complements grimdark and gothic colour schemes well and looks less clean and clinical than a bright, modern gold.
This makes the paint particularly suitable for old relics, weathered armour and richly decorated fantasy or sci-fi miniatures.
Ideal for armour, ornaments and relics
The metallic gold shade is highly versatile for decorative armour, crowns, weapons, jewellery, emblems and decorative edge details. Emperor Gold also provides a strong base for holy symbols, mechanical details and ancient artefacts.
By combining it with dark brown, reddish-brown or black shades, you can quickly add more depth and age to the gold.
Excellent for grimdark and Blanchitsu styles
Within grimdark colour schemes, Emperor Gold works particularly well alongside rust, weathered steel, leather and dark fabrics. By adding washes and grime locally, you can create an antique, battle-worn gold finish.
For extra shine, you can highlight the highest edges with a lighter gold or silver metallic.
Versatile for various techniques
Emperor Gold is suitable for basecoating, layering, edge highlighting and drybrushing. On ornaments and relief, a light drybrush can quickly accentuate the higher parts, while targeted edge highlights provide a sharper metallic effect.
The colour can also be mixed with lighter or darker metallics to create different gold tones within the same model.
Usage
Shake the bottle well before use so that the metallic pigments are evenly distributed. Apply Emperor Gold in several thin coats for an even metallic coverage. Deepen the recesses with dark brown or black shades and apply lighter metallic highlights to the most protruding parts.
