This came as a request from a fellow in NC. He liked Design IX, however he wanted one slightly different than the original. He requested a repaint of some previously black sections, and gold was the agreed-upon color. Frankly, I've become a bit of a gold freak as of late, as you may tell from Designs X and XI, so this repaint is right up my alley. (lol) I've been planning ever since to repaint my two prototypes, however I've yet to get to it, as things always seem to turn out that way. But, as one fellow once said, "It can't rain all the time."
