You have done a great job hiding the straighter section of trunk. The only thing I wasn't sure about was the group of 3 small branches coming out that obscures the C curve. It thought it might be nicer if the branch that softens the curve came from around the back to the left.

I'll assume you have a plan for all this stuff, I just wanted to comment because it is an interesting tree and I like what you have done so far. It is fun to mull over.
