Metallics Quick Gen Set – AK17522 is a comprehensive metallic painting set by AK Interactive featuring six metallic tones designed to bring metal surfaces, armor, weapons and decorative details to life quickly. This set is part of the Quick Gen line, where paint delivers depth, gloss and shading in a single application.
The Quick Gen formula uses specialized pigments that naturally flow over the miniature, collecting in crevices and edges to produce a metallic effect without requiring multiple layers or complex blending. To achieve the best results, it is recommended to prime white so that the metallic tones show their full brilliance.
Included in this set:
These six tones provide a versatile metallic palette: GOLD and OLD GOLD for gold embellishments, COPPER for warm metal accents, BRONZE for richer tones, DARK STEEL for shadowed steel surfaces, and COLD STEEL for cooler, bluish metal effects.
Use & inspiration:
– Ideal for painting armor, weapons, machines, decorative borders and mechanical elements.
– Apply GOLD or OLD GOLD to engravings, beads or ornamentation.
– Use COPPER and BRONZE for steampunk, aged metals or warm accents.
– DARK STEEL works well for base metal surfaces in shadowed areas.
– COLD STEEL is great for cool metal edges, blades or contrast zones.
– Combine with washes, pigments or dry‑brush techniques for added realism.
Arm your miniatures with shimmering metal, depth and consistency — the AK17522 Metallics Quick Gen Set gives you a complete metallic toolset in a single efficient kit from AK Interactive.
