Cool Tree!
In response to the “be honest about my tree.” - thing:
While your work appears to be technically proficient, I am having a hard time seeing “the tree”.. or direction.
I believe this to be a combination of the lack of successive taper from the middle of the trunk, upwards, and the many branches my eyes are trying to fix into place to “set” the design visually.
After that 2nd or 3rd(at least) branch up, the taper needs to ..well taper up.. to give impression of scale... this is not your fault.... just more seasons(and harder prunes) are needed..
The reason, I feel, it seems as though you had trouble “committing” to certain branches or directions, is that you are designing those branches, up in what I believe to be “sacrifice zone”..
I, personally, would plan lower... and slower.
As I said, your procedural skills seem to be technically proficient, and I believe this tree will “give back” much with time.
Nice Tree, again!
