Japanese Black Pine
I purchased this imported Japanese black pine about 4 years ago and I think it is ready now for a major restyling.

And this is the new front I have chosen. I plan to remove a branch on the inside of the trunk, wire everything and make the crown more compact.

I'm not sure if you like this but I did a little virtual of the "left side".
The branch is wired downwards gradually and the bottom branches is left to give a nice old feel to this pine. The branch that comes down makes up for any "bareness" of this tree. The roots this way also show why the tree is bent this way, does not poke at the viewer. The branch on the left also harmonises with the bend of the trunk to the left. ...I hope...hehe.

Bonsaikc I like your pine. The best view is the one that I have worked with below. I see two options in which both the tree has been tilted to the left my 10degs.
You could go for the full canopy look or the literati look. Just my opinion. First is the full canopy typically styled pine. |

IMHO, the air roots distract. This isn't a banyan, it's a pine. If they can be removed, gradually and carefully, then maybe ther's possibilities, if not ... IMHO ... not.
