Description
Check out the Golden Exercise and Download the Practice Sheet HEREEXERCISE: Challenging your knowledge and application of gold.
You can use gold on many different materials and surfaces from a golden helm to the stitching of a golden fleece. The trick is knowing how to accurately create the appearance of gold. Gold itself is a metal material. A metal surface will most often reflect light rather than absorbing it. We created a reference last year that give you a quick look at one way of creating the “golden” look.

Would the brushes work on Paint Tool SAI?
P.S. The gold looks great!

Are you supposed to use this on Illustrator? because I tried download the file but my Illustrator didn't like it, is that because it's a different cs4 5 & 6? or is there another reason?

CGCookie In reply to Louisetheanimator [2012-11-26 16:58:36 +0000 UTC]
No this is meant to be for Photoshop, I do not believe the download will work for Illustrator

Louisetheanimator In reply to CGCookie [2012-11-26 17:03:23 +0000 UTC]
Well I tried downloading it and it seemed to be more of an illustrator file, should I try to open it with Photoshop then?

CGCookie In reply to Louisetheanimator [2012-11-26 17:06:33 +0000 UTC]
Yes, that should work in Photoshop since Illustrator has a few different settings for this kind of a file.
