    This looks very nice on a somewhat deceiving figure to paint esp all that gold braid .
    I have this one in the bottom drawer and have
    pulled it out a couple of times , look at all that gold and put it back in the box:) Can you share the gold mix.

    Yes it's the Atelier kit.
    Ron thanks. Well I can give you a quick run down. I undercoat with a dark brown first. I use a mix of vallejo gold, 872 and Andrea Japanese Khaki. When put on this mix looks very dull. You have to work it up with the highlights. For this I add a touch of the lighter gold by vallejo (1st) and then pick the real highs with the addition of buff. Lows are done with 872 and 822. Hope this helps
