What's a good water-based Gold paint for airbrushing?

Hey everyone-
So I'm setting up for an airbrush marathon this weekend, but I wondered if I could get some advice on a good Gold color, something that sprays smoothly, but still looks *realistic*....I've used Tamiya Gold Leaf, and it looks good, but usually I have to brush it on to get a smooth coat...it seems to NOT like being airbrushed, comes out like spatter and gives me a hard time, unless I thin it, but then it's too thin....And I've used Testors Model Master Acrylic Gold, and it sprays like a dream, but the color isn't right....too muted, and blah....
Any suggestions??
Thanks!
David
