Hoplite Gold brings genuine metallic shine to Army Painter's Speedpaint 2.0 range — an industry-first one-coat metallic. Fine metal flakes settle across the surface while darker pigments sink into the recesses to shade automatically, giving a warm classical gold finish with real depth and none of the usual multi-layer work.
Best for
Helms, shields and ancient armour
Self-shading metal in a single coat
Dries fast, ready to layer with acrylics
A single pass gives a hoplite's helm and shield a warm, self-shading golden gleam.
True metallic shine in one coat. Pair it with a white primer and a Speedpaint Metallic silver for complete metalwork.
