Hi everyone, like many others I’m sure you guys come in contact with, I’m pretty new to 3d printing and sort of fumbling my way around. I have been working on 3d modeling a movie accurate golden gun from the James Bond movie “Man with the Golden Gun” so I wanted it to be as color accurate to the original prop as possible. I have bought a few spools of filament off of Amazon going off the product image on the site and I have found that a lot of them are very off the mark and not accurate. A majority of the gold pla that I have seen on there has sort of an “orange-y”, candyish appearance to it whereas I’m looking for more of a brassy true gold appearance in certain parts and a sort of matte champagne gold on others. I’ve tried using hue3d.com and filamentcolors.xyz but neither of them seem to offer much variety. I’ve attached pictures of the original prop as well as a close facsimile of the color I’m looking for. What gold filament would you guys recommend that would come very close to what I’ve shown below or do you know of a way that I could fairly accurately compare different colors?
