I like it. You've accomplished a couple of important things - accentuating the curves in the lower trunk and minimizing the fact that the branches are so high on the tree. I think you'll want to eventually remove the first branch on the left as the one above it grows, but I'm glad you left it now.

Great solution for a tricky piece of material.

Really like the feminie shape of the tree can almos see her dancing on your bench. Is there a reason you chose the front as the front. I find the back rather more pleasing.

Very nice John!

a little comment though, if you won't mind. If you are aiming for a weeping design, pulling down a bit the secondary branches and the finer ones would improve the weeping effect further. Weeping branches should be pointed towards the earth. You could do this in the future styling John. let the tree rest for now.

regards,

Thank you Hilton for your reply...The reason i chose this front,,there is a good branch on the back that gives the tree depth..if i removed it i would have nothing to train for the back side.. i wired it down as i could have to let the small branches grow then rewire...thanks for your comment take care john

Understood. i guess this is one of those where 2D does not help. We need web 3D already bounce
