Description

Forgefire Metals — Warm Alloys — 6×22 ml True Metallics

Pour on radiant warmth with a curated ramp of golds, bronzes, and coppers. Forgefire Metals: Warm Alloys delivers six fine-flake metallics that layer smoothly, keep their sparkle through blends and glazes, and finish with sharp, readable highlights—perfect for relic trim, filigree, plate, and arcane ornaments.

Why you’ll love it

  • Regal warmth: Gold → bronze → copper for instantly rich, heroic metal.

  • Blend-ready flow: Brushes beautifully and airbrushes cleanly; holds edge highlights.

  • Keeps the shine: Fine metallic flake that stays bright through layering.

  • Project-friendly volume: 6 bottles × 22 ml each.

What’s inside

  • Genie Gold — brilliant base gold for fast coverage

  • El Dorado Gold — sun-lit gold mid/highlight

  • 3rd Place Bronze — classic bronze midtone

  • Plumber Copper — warm copper body and shadows

  • Ruby Lips — deep red-metal glaze for heat and aged warmth

  • Bullet Betty — dark graphite-warm metal for recess depth

How to use

  1. Base plates and trim with Genie Gold (bright) or El Dorado Gold (slightly softer).

  2. Body tones: Mottle 3rd Place Bronze and Plumber Copper to create natural variation.

  3. Shade & enrich: Glaze Ruby Lips into recesses and around rivets for heat-aged depth; use Bullet Betty to anchor the darkest metal shadows.

  4. Pop highlights: Return with Genie Gold / El Dorado Gold on the sharpest edges and filigree.

Tech specs

  • Finish: True metallic (fine-flake)

  • Volume: 6×22 ml bottles

  • Use: Brush or airbrush (thin 10–30% for glazing and blends)

  • Best results: Works over black or gloss primers; edge-highlight last for maximum sparkle.

Pairs perfectly with:

  • Citrus Heraldry (Oranges & Yellows) — blazing banners and panels framed by warm metal.

  • Sands & Sun (Desert Tones) — dune, bone, and rawhide palettes that harmonize with bronze and copper.
