Hi Andy,
Maybe you made a good point that in these pictures it looks like not much is changed, but believe me it did and that is just Wat is so important in this bonsai.
But have a look at this 2 pics.
Look at the first pic and notice the very straight and unnaturally looking edge off the stump, now look at the same spot on the next pic. Look at the difference in thickness and grain and texture, it doesn't look straight any more. And this was only after the chisel and brush. But i admit it looks better in real live than in the pictures.
I will post pictures of the hole tree tomorrow, even though it is in the middle of developing!
