Looks more like shoreline gold to me, but photographing metallics is tough and highly dependent on the lighting.

yeah, the background just makes it look dull
It's not about the gear! It's about you, your hands, your imagination, your feelings.

Better?
I'm not an expert in inca silver, but I know a little more about digital cameras. A lot of them artificially "warmify" scenes to make them punchier and to make flesh tones look tanner. Looks like what might have happened here. All I did was a little auto color in Photoshop and it brought it back closer to reality.

This looks more like what I expected! Hope it looks like that when I get it.

yes that's definitely inca silver. as for the colors in the dressing room... you shouldn't take those as gospel. it's really hard getting the colors to look right there, i'm still tweaking them now and again.
