AK Weathering Pencil – Gold (AK10037)
Bring warm, rich metallic highlights to your models with the Gold Weathering Pencil. This water-based, semi-grease paint pencil is made for precise detailing and controlled metallic wear—so you can add gold accents exactly where you want them, then soften or blend them with a damp brush.
 
What it does
Adds clean gold trim and highlights on armor, ornaments, emblems, and decorative parts

For realistic gold, concentrate the shine on the highest points only—then tone it down with a thin brown wash or grime effect to make it feel “lived-in.”
