Hi, what I should change to this juniper in terms of styling?

You have already changed enough for this time. The tree needs to recover. Next time ask before you do the work. Now it is too late.

Just focus on after care and a healthy tree.

What do you think of the final result then? I’m not sure about the apex. Thanks

First of all. You are the artist, the creator. The styling should be done so that you are pleased, not me.

I think the biggest issue is what material you started with. Formal upright really need a lot of taper to look good in my opinion. It can develop after initial styling as well. But it takes decades.

I don't know how the tree looked like before styling. So very hard to tell if there where other options. Generally speaking, creating an image of an old tree involves atention to proportions. Thicker branches down low and thinner as you go up the tree. Here it seems like you ended up the other way around.

Next time, if you have design questions, ask them before doing the work. There are not anything to do now.

That’s the material before, thanks for the comment.
