Does anyone have more pictures of the color "Sun Gold" Tim offers? The one picture in this section isn't enough. Thanks~ ;)

I'd also like to see more of this color if possible. I'm trying to decide between a sun gold colored MHS gear or a copper colored. More pics of the gold would be much appreciated so I can compare the two

Considering that powder coating only works on metal surfaces, it is somewhat ironic that no non-transparent powder can actually achieve a convincing metallic look. The exceptions would be textured powders, such as "Silver Vein." It would be nice if Tim added "Gold Transparent" and "Copper Transparent" to his list of available colors. IMO, these do a much better job of simulating gold and copper.

Its the extra work of polishing the pieces for the trans colors that's a pain, and probably why Tim hasn't done it.

Ah. Good point. There are also powders available that give an anodized look, and are flat (matte) and transparent. I bet those would look good on media-blasted pieces.
