A drawing ink from the Standard Colors range by Eternal, in a 30ml bottle — the brightest and most intense yellow in the collection, an electric, almost neon yellow designed for maximum visual impact. The formula based on high-concentration organic pigments in a glycerin medium is 100% vegan, made in the USA and EU REACH compliant, with a sterilized bottle and traceable lot. It is the right choice for artists working in vibrant styles — new school, pop art, bold neo-traditional, fantasy compositions — and need a yellow that is the first thing the eye sees in a composition.
What is the difference compared to Bright Yellow and Golden Yellow from Eternal?▾
All three are yellows from the Standard Colors range, but with different roles. Bright Yellow is a pure, classic, bright but natural yellow — think of a flower yellow. Golden Yellow is warm-golden. Lightning Yellow is the exaggeratedly bright, almost neon yellow, the brightest that Eternal produces — a 'neon sign yellow'. If you work in natural realism, Bright Yellow or Golden Yellow are the right choices; if you want maximum visual impact in new school, pop art, or fantasy compositions, this is the shade.
Why does the product say it is 'drawing ink'?▾
The product is marketed with the declared intended use as drawing ink, as explicitly stated in its description. Use for any other purpose than the one mentioned is strictly the consumer's responsibility, and the store assumes no responsibility for use in another purpose. It is important to read and respect the intended use mentioned on the product.
How do I properly store and handle the ink to keep it hygienic?▾
The golden rule: the bottle always stays 'clean'. Dose only into disposable cups, never work directly from the bottle, do not touch the bottle neck against tools or surfaces, and never pour back the ink remaining in the cup — that gets thrown away. Close the cap tightly immediately after dosing and store the bottle at room temperature, away from direct sunlight. The bottle comes sterilized and with a traceable lot, so check the seal and lot upon receipt.
What colors can this shade be mixed with?▾
According to the manufacturer's description, it is most impressive used pure, but it mixes well with: Crimson Red in a 1:1 ratio for an intense electric orange, a small amount of Hot Pink for a neon yellow-pink, Graffiti Green 1:1 for a spectacular neon lime, a small amount of True Black for an electric olive green, and Snow White 1:1 for a bright pastel yellow. Avoid mixes with brown or 'dirty' colors, which neutralize the neon effect. Always mix in a separate cup and note the proportions.
Does yellow fade over time?▾
Yes, yellow is generally the most vulnerable color to UV — that is why any work with yellow must be protected from sun exposure. According to the manufacturer's information, this shade has a higher pigment concentration, which provides an additional color reserve: with constant sun protection (SPF 50+), vibrancy can be maintained for 3-5 years, comparable to Bright Yellow, while without protection, fading may be noticeable after about one year. After fading, the shade remains a still-visible yellow, it does not disappear completely.
Is the product vegan? Where is it manufactured?▾
Yes, the formula is 100% vegan, according to the manufacturer. The ink is manufactured in the USA by Eternal, it is compliant with EU REACH regulations, and the 30ml bottle comes sterilized and with a traceable lot — you can always check the lot on the label. These are the basic criteria worth checking for any quality ink.
