Thanks for sharing!
On top of Mike's i'm adding:
5:40 - rock planting i like though i suspect partly because it's something different to all the chonk conifers. Its hard to appreciate trees truly through video
0:43 - Really not a fan of the maples with such ridiculous fused bases.

Definitely the same tree, you can see the conjoined trunk that runs along the soil line in both photos. The magic of photography angles!

The second shot of the two trunk pine is such a wide angle it's totally distorted the shape..

Trying to find decent photos of the various trees chosen by Mike and Tim. So far only this one from Bill Valavanis International Bonsai Online magazine #3 https://internationalbonsaionline.com/

Thanks for the share and photos!!
Undoubtedly amazing skills and patience to produce these trees, far better than my humble collection that saw it's first wiring just this lockdown. I just wish they were trying to create something in a more natural style with more negative space. This one looks like Darth Vader's brother from Endor.
Cheers

Agreed. Lots of dedication for a boring result IMO. But amazingly developed for a Hinoki.Pat3222 wrote: ↑August 30th, 2021, 8:55 pm Thanks for the share and photos!!
