Posted April 13, 20177 yr I bought mask here (link) and I pointed it using Citadel Auric Armour Gold paint. Big gallery: http://imgur.com/a/6xw1P
April 13, 20177 yr Awesome. I need to get some more shapeways masks, been meaning to get the higher res achryllic MoUP and cyberhands mask of Time. They look so good in auric gold
April 24, 20177 yr Cool, this looks really authentic! I haven't ever actually ordered any 3D printed masks or LEGO parts, but when I do I will keep this paint color in mind! I really love the warmness of LEGO's "Warm Gold" (Pearl Gold) a lot better than the more brownish look of the earlier "Sand Yellow Metallic" (Flat Dark Gold), so it's good to know that there's a paint color that approximates it pretty well. :) Did you find that it needed any sort of sanding before painting it?
April 24, 20177 yr Author Surface isn't totally smooth like in original Bio masks, so sanding could help, but I'm not expert in that and I don't want to damage it. But even without sanding it's good enough after painting.
April 25, 20177 yr its a paint designed to be used as a layer, so it works best if you spray paint the mask gold first. this will further help smooth it down too.
April 25, 20177 yr Author Little update. I get second Ignika in Bionicle Heroes Style too. Gallery: http://imgur.com/a/bdX7w Edited April 25, 20177 yr by PrimoUltimo
