Sakura Poster Color 12ml (12 Color Set)

Sakura Poster Color is a high-opacity, water-soluble, gum arabic-based paint designed for illustrations, graphic design, and painting, often favored for its vibrant, matte finish. It is available in 12ml tubes sets, known for bright, opaque pigments that blend well and stay vivid even when mixed or diluted. Made in Japan, it provides a smooth, fast-drying, consistent experience suitable for artists. 

Key Features & Characteristics:

• High Opacity: Excellent coverage, making it suitable for layering and creating, for example, clouds in illustration.
• Vibrant & Smooth: Known for bright pigmentation and an even, matte finish.
• Versatile: Blends well on wet paper and can be used in both opaque and, when thinned, semi-transparent ways.
• Colors & Sizes: Available in extensive sets, including standard colors, fluorescent, and metallic shades like gold/silver. 

Important Considerations:

• Lightfastness: Some shades are not highly lightfast (permanent) and may fade over time in direct sunlight, making them better suited for reproduction work (scanning) rather than display-oriented fine art.
• Color Mixing: Due to the variety of pigments, some colors might produce muddier tones when mixed.
• Opacity: Similar in usage to gouache, it works wonders when thinned with water to act as an opaque white or for creating detailed work.
