- Yes, it is right, but please read: Interference (wave propagation). It is a thin layer property, similar to the bismuth colors. -- Alchemist-hp ( talk) 17:16, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

- Support - wonderful! On a side note, I'd love to see how Alchemist might do one of the non-metallic elements, such as carbon or sulfur. Those ones definitely need better pictures.
