Painting Sylvaneth Endless Spells - Vengeful Skullroot

I am slowly getting my Sylvaneth Endless Spells done - last week I finished Vengeful Skullroot. As I have mentioned earlier, there's something strange with this model - it looks a bit too happy :D Jokes aside, I have the impression that, for some reason, this tree ended up being unintentionally funny. I expected it to have "creepy tree" kind of look, but instead it's a strange floating tree with skeletons dangling from it (the slight "curve" of the trunk and short branches are only contributing tho that look). However, I like the rules and how the painted model looks on the table. Below you can find a quick guide on techniques and paints used, in case that you want a similar colour scheme.  

Painting process:
  • The model was primed with GW Zandri Dust
  • Bark was washed Vallejo Brown Ink
  • Bark was drybrushed with Vallejo Khaki
  • Very light wash of Vallejo Sepia Ink was applied to the roots
  • The soulpod (?) inside the tree trunk was painted with Vallejo Livery Green and then washed with GW Hexwraith Flame
  • Leaves were painted with GW Moot Green, washed with GW Biel-Tan Green then highlighted with Vallejo Livery Green 
  • Skeletons were painted with Vallejo Khaki and washed with Agrax Earthshade
  • The base wash done using Gale Force 9 basing kit (Summer)
