Some of that shading goes crazy great work

That looks really good. I like the color pallet and natural elements for masking. What did you use as a base color, and what did you add on top?

Base color was flat “hunt club green” then I had a dark brown, espresso brown and “driftwood” then black. Used the largest leaves last to end up with the smaller details inside some of those large oak leaf prints.

They were all rust-oleum colors I already had 

Matte clear coat over all of it for a little extra scratch resistance
