NMM 1st Time
This is my first time to paint NMM. It is very difficult. The main 2 difficult points are:
- How to make the color blending to look like the shinny Gold?
- How the light reflect the thing and what it should look like?
I researched the information from the Youtube Paint masters that I followed and tried to paint as the same, but the result is not good as them. Anyway, I am ok with result for my first time.
These are the sources:

The big problem from my experience is the Priming with Zenithal Highlight by Spray Can make NMM difficult, because the Light effect from the metal is not the same as normal object. It reflect back with the near white in different angle https://the-educational-blog.quora.com/How-are-photo-realistic-materials-made-in-CGI
For a shining gold I’ll recommend starting with a light brown and then transition into a pale yellow and then highlight with white. I learned through taking classes long ago with oil paints. As a quick tutorial you can see how someone picks out highlights and blends the colors in this video. Its pretty good to also show you the reflections off both objects. Good luck with your continued hobby painting.
