Hi Seb,
No Tamiya's Racing Green is not metallic.
Don't know of any suitable alternatives. I think Tamiya do a metallic green but it may be too light. GSI Creos/Gunze Sangyo also have a metallic green , but that is definitely on the light side. Finaly Finisher's do a "Jaguar Green" to match the F1 Jaguars, lovely colour but again too light.
Perhaps mixing a little bit of metallic black will darken any of the above metallic greens sufficiently?
What are you planning to use it on?
