I have that exact hawthorne in the same color. Metal specks would probably be fairly close, but you'll have to fake patina it to really get it to look like the frame. Another option might be to strip the chainguard and leave it bare metal or let it rust to match the look of the rest of the bike.
 
Be careful with some of these hobby paints or spray cans - the adhesion is often poor. Here is my combo, but the gold did not stick to the primer very well - chips pretty easy.

paint with it as you would with candy paint,its the same with anything tecnical you have to practice,as the level of difficulty goes up,its not like spraying solid color,but the combinations you can get are only left up to your imagination,every time you use it youll like it more,at the price its offerd at you can afford to experiment,hoc paint is priced out of reality for bikes
