Arcane Gold Base (77137) is a strong metallic gold base paint in an 18 ml bottle, created as the foundational tone within the Arcane Gold colour family of Vallejo’s True Metallic Metal (TMM) range. This core colour sets the stage for warm, high‑impact metallic finishes.

The full Arcane Gold colour family includes:

• 77117 Arcane Gold (Light) – Metallic highlight tone for accent reflection
• 77137 Arcane Gold (Base) – This core basecoat
• 77157 Arcane Gold (Shade) – Non‑metallic satin wash for shadows and depth
• 77177 Arcane Gold (Airbrush) – Airbrush‑ready version of the Base

This base tone is ideal for models where you want a gold metal finish — fantasy armours, decorative metal panels or sci‑fi devices with a classic metal sheen. Apply it over a dark primer for optimal contrast. Use multiple thin coats to build coverage and allow the metallic pigments to shine through.

Key features:

• Rich metallic gold base paint
• Water‑based acrylic, low‑odor and fine metallic pigment formulation
• Designed to work seamlessly with Shade, Light and Airbrush variants of the same family

Usage tips:

• Shake the bottle thoroughly before use to ensure even pigment distribution
• Prime with a dark colour to enhance contrast and metallic depth
• Apply multiple thin layers instead of a single heavy coat for best finish

Arcane Gold Base gives you the warm, premium metallic finish you’ve been seeking. Use it with the full Arcane Gold colour family to create layered, reflective finishes that stand out on any miniature or model.
