  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
