My new Sabina Juniper

Hi friends,

Just wanted to share some pictures of this Sabina Juniper I just added to my collection.
I think it's got a beautiful trunk line and some very nice deadwood.

I'd love to have some comments from all you more experienced members on the forum.

Kind regards,

Faisal

There's nothing to say, it's just a wanderfull tree with lots and lots of potential. Great purcase.

Total rubbish Faisal and I hate you.

Faisal
Wonderful 'lump of wood'
All you need is 'Makita Bob' to give you a hand !!!!

Thanks, Nik.

I'm so sorry, Will. Be careful next time.
take your advice before i buy my next one:-)

Thanks, Graham.
I'm sure bob will do wonders.

I would suggest doing some carving on the large stump, it needs to be softened. Currently I think it is too heavy and distracts from the overall line of the tree.

Love the way the live vein twists around the dead wood in the fifth photo from bottom. There's not much wrong with any of the photos, of course...beautiful!

My suggestion would be to keep his dirty rotten trees to himself, and not post them on the forum where I have to look at them.

Thanks, jersanct. Glad you like it.

Thanks, Billy. I will take this to my good friend Will Baddeley this summer. I'm sure with his excellent
carving skills he will transform the tree.

whats going on?

Good joke, Will :-)
Great material. Looking forward to see it after dead wood work. Or not, no, I don´t want to see it anymore :-D

Well spotted Tom. Faisal out bid me for this one, but Im not bitter.......

Hi Faisal

Really a very beautiful tree, Congratulations.

Pavel

Truly Amazing material Faisal. Almost too good to be true.

The tree offers tremendous potential to be a masterpiece. Especially the stump which can be carved to a work of art. The live vein is terrific the way it wraps around the deadwood.

Do share first styling images once you're at it. Shall look forward to the same. Especially the deadwood ones.


Will - understand that sinking feeling of being outbid..... Well then again there is always the next auction and this time you can keep Faisal away so that you have none to outbid you

Ravi

Many thanks, Pavel.

Thank you Ravi ji. I'm glad every one likes the material. I will post more pictures once I've done some work on it.
