Citadel Layer: Yriel Yellow (12ml)
A bright, high-energy yellow Layer paint made for clean highlights and smooth layering over Base paints—perfect when you want punchy yellows without chalky, thick coats.
 
What it does
Built for crisp highlights and building up layers over Citadel Base paints.
Dries to a smooth matt finish for neat, controlled transitions.

How to use

Thin slightly and apply 2–3 thin layers for maximum smoothness.
Use it for edge highlights, or as a mid-step before an even brighter final highlight.

Yellow armor panels, cloth trims, hazard accents

ChalkyDot Tip: If yellow ever looks streaky, don’t fight it with a thick coat—do a thin pass, let it dry, repeat. Yellow rewards patience more than any other color.
