Cheers Keith.
For the metal on the drum I used a 50/50 mix of Tamiya x12 gold leaf and x31 titanium gold.
This was sprayed on.I then used Games Workshop agrax earthshade to wash all over the base colour.

This is certainly the most complex bust I have painted.
The painting order took a bit of working out.
