After 2 months wires started to cut in so I had to rewire, adding few more slight bends.
And I removed one branch.
And a few more in this virtual.
What you guys think?

Nobody wanted to tell me what they thought, so I am continuing to do my thing.... :P
The needles are gigantic but it is ok for now as I can see some nice backbudding...another year or two of heavy watering and fertilizing and then I can work on reducing it.

I’m scratching my head, cause I like 2/3 of your tree, but not fun of that big bulge/movement on the trunk . Thank you for the info about the pot! Really nice stuff there in good price.

Do you mean a bulge in the upper part in the middle of foliage?
There was a crack inflicted to it at first styling and after it healed the bulge appeared, not much I can do about it.
But it will be covered with new needles in coming years and some more bending of the trunk will make the tree more interesting I hope.

For me it looks enough interesting. In other case, I don’t leave a comment for. That’s a beauty in that hobby to correcting problems :)

The only part I think is not quite right is the top. It is too high, needs to come forward and down a little bit, but only the very top. The next branch down on the left is a bit heavy compared to the others. But it a very nice tree overall.
