Painting Sylvaneth Endless Spells - Gladewyrm

Yeasterday, I have finished painting Gladewyrm, so now all of the Sylvaneth Endless spells are done. I'm one model away from having all my Sylvaneth models painted - there's one Awakened Wyldwood that I'll probably finish by the end of the month. After that, I can focus on painting my Khorne stuff.

Below is the quick tutorial on how the Gladewyrm was painted, so you can use it if you like the colour scheme:
  • The model was primed using Vallejo white primer
  • The base was fully painted with GW Contrast Gore-Grunta Fur
  • Light dryrush of Vallejo Khaki was applied to the base
  • Light wash of GW Agrax Earthshade was applied to the base
  • Skulls were painted with Vallejo Elffic Flesh, then washed with GW Agrax Earthshade
  • Vines and leaves were painted with GW Moot Green, washed with GW Biel-Tan Green and then highlighted with Vallejo Livery Green
  • The worm's chitionous plates were painted with Vallejo Hexen Lichen
  • The "belly" and the head of the worm were painted with Vallejo Squid Pink
  • The worm was then washed with GW Carroburg Crimson
  • Chitionous plates were dlightly drybrushed with Vallejo Squid Pink, then edge highlights in the same colour were applied
  • A layer of Vallejo Squd Pink was applied to belly and the face of the worm (leaving darker shade in the recesses)
  • Belly and the face were highlighted with Vallejo Off White
  • Eyes were painted with Vallejo Livery Green
  • Glowing runes were painted with Vallejo Livery Green
  • Gale Force 9 static grass and some tufts were added to the base
