This one is hard to match, with nothing in another brand landing close in the same finish, the nearest being Spartan Bronze from Two Thin Coats at 57 percent in a different finish class. In the pot, Sycorax Bronze reads as a warm metallic gold, dark and moderate. For modelling, drop to Hashut Copper in the recesses and step up to Iron Hands Steel on the edges, both Citadel paints. If you need this exact color, buy the pot, since no other line reproduces it in the same finish.

What is the closest equivalent to Citadel Sycorax Bronze?
The closest same-finish match is Two Thin Coats Spartan Bronze at 57% color similarity.
What finish is Sycorax Bronze?
Sycorax Bronze is a metallic paint with a gold tone and a reflective finish. Because the shine comes from metal flake, a flat paint can match the color and still be wrong for the job, which is why cross-finish matches here are references rather than swaps.
What do I highlight and shade Sycorax Bronze with?
Highlight Sycorax Bronze toward Iron Hands Steel and shade it down into Hashut Copper, both Citadel paints in the same finish family.
