Gold pigments in resin: mica, acrylics, metallic powders, spray paint, gilding flakes & alcohol ink

The best gold for resin? What I wish I knew when I was starting out. This video is about the different gold pigments you can use and the effects they have in resin. What kind of look are you going for? Mica powder, acrylic ink, acrylic paint, resin pigment paste, metallic powders, gilding flakes, and alcohol ink. Each has their own distinctive effects. This is a long video, I have created chapters below and pinned a comment so you can skip through it.
