Vines/Roots Progres

One of the key parts of my animation will be the vines which I will be creating to  show a dark and dingy environment where this sort of plant/tree may grow.

I extruded along curve to create the vines in the image below. After I created the shape of the root I moved the verticies around to create indents in the model.

I repeated the process above for creating vines which would wrap themselves around the root giving it a more overwhelming effect which suggests that the root is being suffocated.
