That looks really good to me as is - don't worry too much about branch or trunk thickening - in nature most windswept trees are quite slender (thin and supple the tree survives, thick and inflexible it snaps).
The next two comments are only suggestions based on personal taste - next time you repot perhaps experiment with the angle of inclination being slightly (only slightly!) more, and if you can source more of the same type or colour rock / gravel have more of that and a bit less greenery on the substrate to emphasise the exposed / challenging environment that would produce such a tree.
You're a lucky chap to have such a nice, natural looking tree!

I don't have a cascading willow, but rather a windswept one
