I don't know about pigments but I recently bought some AK interactive Extreme Metal enamel paint which is flipping awesome, much better than Humbrol or Revell

6B pencil does it for me! You can make pigment from it, really easily. Does need varnishing to fix it tho!

I use the Uschi Metal Powders. They work really well for drybrushing and have many uses.
There is a lot of information and tutorial here:
