My Attempts at wiring

Today i've given a try at fully wiring two trees, first time for me. I used to wire one or two twigs, but never a full "tree".
I am aware that there is still lots of room for improvement, but I felt it was time to give it a go.

I started with a banyan - I forgot to take shots from the start, so its only half of the progression.

Removed the leaves

Wired and pulled the branches down

The second one I worked on is a Privet [ Ligustrum ].
This one I root-pruned then wired.

Full root system

Pruned root system

Nebari - well once it thickens a bit

Potted

Removed the leaves to get a better idea of the branch structure

Well that's it.
Critiques are most welcomed.
