Trying to make this crown a bit more metallic/realistic. I used rustoleum metallic gold, and it's not quite the effect I was looking for. (lemmy.world)

What can I do for a more realistic metal finish?

Tried the "hammered" spray paint options? Thank me later.

I LOVE the hammered stuff, I just don't want a hammered look on this crown.

Forge hammered is what I used as the base coat for my other helmets before weathering.
