Those are Opposite colors to Mussini Ultramarine Light or Dark, translucent.

To make a dark neutral from any Yellow hue, use it's darker hue Burnt Umber or Raw Umber and
mix it with the Yellow's opposite color Ultramarine Blue.

Here is a painting done using only the complementary colors.
Yellow to Brown and Ultramarine blue.
This was painted using opaque acrylic Yellows.


 


This one is an oil painting.
One thing that stands out well in both paintngs are the nice rich neutral darks.

One company still makes a transparent yellow,
Old Holland, Indian Yellow-Orange Lake Extra, Transparent, duel-tone.
