There's a section on this in the book - pages 238-239 in the third edition. That covers making things look metallic; you just have to add red and yellow to make it gold. |

Hi Joanne, I placed a tutorial Turning non-metallic objects into gold. This Tutorial can be found in the TUTORIALS Section of this forum. Please note that the "Curves" procedure was stolen from Steve's book by me. Mike  |
