A mugo I hope to start working with

I bought this little pine for next to nothing in august, I know it is no big deal but I cant wait to start working with this little guy for some reason. I have a few larger ones but will save them for another time(they are even less to look at).

This tree has great possibilities. Good trunk and not an abundance of knuckles to deal with. Are you bringing this to the work shop?

Do it, I have an idea but I want to see the tree first. Clue: Near the top is a large fork, examine both forks and see what kind of branching you have there. If what I think I see there is really there we could make a pretty good bonsai out of this one pretty quick.

keep us updated on this one, please. Take a camera to the workshop and take some pics of the styling process itself if you can. I think this could end up being quite educational for a lot of us.

thx,

Stefan

Yes please do! I have an envisioned styling in mind for this tree and I'd like to see if it is consistent with what others see in this tree. I'm trying to refine my eye for raw stock potential.
