      Here’s my first attempt at painting one of the Gloomwood trees.

      I used Citadel paints in a Base/Shade/Dry combo.

      Rocks: Mechanicus Standard Grey base, Nuln Oil shade, Dawnstone dry
      Trunk: Mournfang Brown base, Agrax Earthshade shade, Golgfag Brown dry
      Mushroom top: Mephiston Red base, Carroburg Crimson shade, Astorath Red dry
      Mushroom bottom: Ungor Flesh layer, Seraphim Sepia shade
      Bulbous growth: Zandri Dust base, Seraphim Sepia shade, Terminatus Stone dry

      Once all done, I added a few tufts of Lowland Shrubs by The Army Painter.

      C&C welcome!

        It’s 200mm tall, straight from the downloaded zip file.
        Here’s another image with dwarfs for scale.

      This looks great! These will actually be my first 3D print ever and I have a newb question: what color filament should I use when printing these trees? I just ordered a wood color from Hatchbox. Is that the way to go?

      Thanks!

        Filament colour really doesn’t matter.
        I used white (as that was on offer on Amazon), which meant that I did a quick spray of black base to block out the white. Other models (like the Elven Portal and Infernal Tower) I printed in green.

      Got it. Thanks for the reply.

      One more question: for those that you printed in green, did you use the green as a base or did you still start with a black base?

        No, I didn’t use a black base. Attached one of the elven scatter terrain pieces pre and post-paint.
        Once printer, I simply based the column with Zandri Dust and the tree with Dryad Bark. Then shade followed with light drybrushing.

      Awesome paint job!

      I just starting printing these because I ran out of things I wanted to print and tried one as an experiment. These things are impressive and I’m not preparing to print 6-10 of them

      Ok, finally took the time to dig out the lightbox and take a proper picture. Enjoy!

      Wow, that looks great. I really like the brown colours and highlight on the tree.
