Got inspiered by FutaManticores dryads and started flocking my own models for stylish woodland hairdos.
Im very much pleased with the effect.

**Hanskrampf**

Oh, wow, that looks pretty cool!

**petitflacheur**

Nice job. The folliage looks good

**bubber**

those look great!

**Cosmic**

Very nice! Lovely look, especially the big angry tree thing, good stuff!!

**Oppl**

That is exceptionally effective. Really makes those models feel alive!

**Frodeck**

It look sooooo good

**Greywing**

That looks really amazing. Bravo!

I've got the bug so bad to start a Sylvaneth army. Posts like this do not help!

**Marxist artist**

Really effective, much more impressive than I could have imagined, even if one does look like a afro!

**Fayric**

Thanks for the kind words everyone!

Thanks! If you talk about the branch wych, i think the afo look make her pretty badass -a model I othervise struggled to make interesting.

**FutaManticore**

Those Sylvaneth are looking bang-on! particularly the Treelord Ancient, but the swords on the Kurnoth Hunters...

Considering your words of encouragement, I'm feeling pretty humble.

**Phobosftw**

Epic!

**White Fang**

It certainly helps the units show up! Otherwise...beige everywhere....

Good point, the AoS setting has some great opportunities to make really creative style of treekin (and other armies) I didnt really appreciate at first. Now I actually like that aspect of the game more and more looking at the amazing gameboards in various battlereports.
For this army though, I try to match it with the scenery me and my friends own, going for a more sober and classic kind of fantasy, inspiered by the kind of nature I have around me.
Also I have lots of tzeench stuff that get the more colourfull calypso treatment, so I want to keep my sylvaneth a relatively dull earthy tone.

**GorFrag**

I'm stealing that idea!

Good job!!

**Ragnar69**

Looking great, but how do you transport them? Magnetic plate?

**Ilgoth**

They look good! I like them a lot.

**War Drone**

I had no idea what a Sylvaneth was, but now I do and these look bloody gorgeous

**Dore Harbridge Robinson**

Nice work! Love the autumn leaves!

**Andykp**

Look good individually, look amazing all together. The forests alive!!!

**LordMcAllister**

This flocking gives a very nice effect, makes the models so much more lively! I really like it as well as your basing!

Good point on the bases, hadn’t really noticed but they are different enough in tone as not to hide the miniature but don’t stand out. If I ever to sylvaneth I will steal these ideas, that is how I always imagined them looking.
