It may be too late now , but I learned the hard way that for yellow I had to put a flat white or very light gray down first in order to have the yellow cover correctly. Camo looks good for brush work.

I just have to chaulk it up to learning from my mistakes. #:-) I'll get that yellow if it kills me!
