Zealots of a crumbling faith: ash-grey robes, parchment scrolls, red wax seals and worn gold.
Tip: Paint the parchment, then dot a few dark lines on it for writing; it reads as text from arm's length.
Below is each colour in the scheme with the closest paint in every major brand. Metal colours are matched to metallic paints, the rest to opaque paints. ΔE is how far the paint is from the target colour: under about 6 is close, over about 15 is loose. These are worked out from swatch estimates, so check the real paints before you start.
