Gold leaf paint...

[liamoko]

OK, so I'm making a series of Triptychs, and need some gold leaf paint, any thoughts where to get such paint?

Also, very small hinges...

I'm thinking Tokyou Hands, or a hobby shop, of which i dont know any...

As it's Tamiya, I would guess anywhere that specializes in self-assembly model kits.

I'm assuming it's Gold Leaf Colour, though, not realy gold leaf... If you're looking for authenticity, might want to seek out the real thing.

Tokyu Hands definitely sell hinges, though I can't say how small they go...

Iago, thanks for your reply.As I'm only in the mock-up phase gold leaf colour would suffice, once I get to the actual wood, I would want real gold leaf.

Thanks again, I'll check out that amazon link, and also Tokyou Hands.

This is the initial prototype(very incomplete panels). i wish to use the borders in gold leaf once I get to a wood phase...
