Pigment from welly: a modicum scattered (7,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cadmium yellow

'pigment' is the definition.
(I know that cadmium yellow is a type of pigment)

'welly a modicum scattered' is the wordplay.
'scattered' is an anagram indicator.
'welly'+'a'+'modicum'='wellyamodicum'
'wellyamodicum' is an anagram of 'CADMIUM YELLOW'.

'from' acts as a link.

I've seen this clue in The Times.
