I need a few ideas, and color choice on how to paint a sword the same way like that Obsidian stone there. Black following into that gold like color.

Can you explain a bit more? I don't get what you mean by "like that rock". Same color? Same pattern?  

[Dragonzealot]

Pretty much yea. Kinda like how the rock there starts off dark in a much larger area, then as it thins out becomes more lighter.

Kinda why I named this thread: "Blending?"

This will require some practice as you're going wet on wet.

This will require some practice as you're going wet on wet.

Not really wet on wet, you just apply one colour over the other and with your brush you run that colour in the direction you want it to go.

Look up some of the painting guides for Tyranid Carapace, the style of blending where it starts from black and gradually goes lighter, because those same techniques will get you what you're looking for.

Will do. I thank you all for the help and advice.
