new Scots pine

This is a collected Scots pine, Pinus sylvetris, that Marco Merschel has styled in the naturalistic style. I think he has done a great job. I received this tree recently in a trade. Of course, I have to do something to give it my own scent.
So I took off all the old wire and cut off lots of branches that were too long and superfluous. Then I started to wire again. Here the intermediate result . We are about half way through. Tomorrow the final result.
