Before. Here's what Will Baddeley of Wildwood Bonsai wrote about this tree: Big Olive had a little refinement carving yesterday for Mike Andrew Humphrey. Making sure sitting water had good flow away from the deadwood.

A closer look. A pretty good canvas to work with. In fact you might question why do anything with such well-aged deadwood, though I suspect the aforementioned sitting water is part of the reason.

Getting started. Looks like a Dremel. A very handy tool to have. 

Making good progress.

I think this is about as far as Will goes. At least for now.

A bit of whimsy.

A closer look. A lot of expression with a few deft touches.

Will himself, dremeling.
