i like the second and third ones the rectangle wants some lip or grove at the top . or maybe just some of the darker material up there . mostly i like that its not so formal or trying to be super perfect .

Thanks thatā€™s a great point I will add a size reference!

I appreciate the feedback, every little bit helps.

I wasnā€™t thrilled with all these but posted them for me to accept that as part of the process

No problem thatā€™s what we are here for. Depending on the size the others might make some interesting kusaomono.

The smaller one, 3rd picture was intended to be a kusomo. I did a set of three in similar texture different angles and colors (other two are still drying)

I respected the advice but glad I didnā€™t follow it, itā€™s a matter of taste but I donā€™t think it overwhelms it as all

that is looking great, I am dying to add an oak to my collection. How long have you had that one

About 2 years but itā€™s probably 3 years old . Came from falls in the tomato bead

Anyone ever heard of an antler slab? 36x20 @3.5 inches deepā€¦

Itā€™s actually a birdbath, but I have a small set of antlers I made to make a kusamono with but Iā€™d love to see a larch in hereā€¦just to see what it looks like

Thanks - other feedback was ā€œthatā€™s the most Canadian thing I have ever seenā€. So apparently itā€™s a Northern thing! It was super challenging to build, more than I anticipated

Iā€™ve had a single (found) moose antler for ~40 years. Never considered it for a bonsai potā€¦ Iā€™ll go dig it outā€¦ :wink:
