Shaping this juni! Ideas please! was created by Chiefbonsai

I plan on keeping this juniper in a pot, probably a bigger one soon. I just would like to get some ideas of what to shape it like. I cant figure out what style to do. Id like to keep the branch on the right and i see the left branch as a sacrificial one. So i was thinking about a twin trunk and semi cascading style. Im sure i may get some bad looks about that idea.. i dont know much about styles just how to bonsai on an amatuer level. So what style would yall go with?

It is hard to tell from the pictures. But your plan seems to tall for the thickness of the trunk. I would let this tree grow for years, and work on trying to get growth close to the trunk. If you are thinking literati, I don't recommend it. Also, two trunks with cascade, it is also better to have the upright part much shorter.
