Hi MN,
This is just a thought, definitely not advice. It looks like you may have two good trunks there. The main one, and the smaller one to the right. I think I would try to use those and do away with much of the rest. I would probably cut off most if not all of the small branches to the left and try to make some kind of deadwood/jin thing there. Are there any branches growing on the left side of the main trunk? If not, then maybe you could keep one of the smaller branches to the left to come up and fill in that space. That might be hard to get to look convincing though. Like I said, just a thought.
