Hi, which is the best way to achieve this could I just spray normal gunmetal then Matt coat it?
Any ideas would be a help

Think a black base, gunmetal metallic and flat coat would be my best option guesstimate mate. A Mr. Hobby buffable could also be an option..
As always happy modeling and keep sticking styrene.

Tamiya have a paint XF-84 - Dark Iron.
It is basically their X-10 (Gun Metal) in a matte finish.
It is the best for making having a flat gun metal look:
The guns on this kit were painted using XF-84
Here as well the undercarriage is painted using XF-84
