Time for more Golden Boys! This one was painted in the same manner as the other Galadhrim Cavalry figure. As before, glazing and tinting after the Shaded Basecoat was the key.
This meant mixing glaze colors such as Secret Weapon Sunshine glaze with purple, and even the Vallejo fluorescent paints!
Let's not forget the 'reflections'. These cooler areas of the metals were tinted with a mix of yellow glaze color with a grey or green. Surprisingly, there are many hints of green to be found in gold colors. Just a bit though... for effect. Too much, and it might appear more like brass!
Just like the last figure, the colors of the cloak and the horse both influenced my shading and provided that all important contrast. These views really show the hints of red on the armor plates!
Here's some views of the figure I used for the how to paint gold NMM video, and a few scenes:

Here's an example of what the videos are like:
