CREATING KIMURA STYLE ROCK TOWER

While I am doing some extensions on the house and working with Porfix building blocks, I have decided I will make me a Kimura style rock tower for some junipers to have some fun along the hard work.
2 weeks ago I glued 4 of them together with frost resistant flexible building block glue and yesterday I took out my new makita gear and got to it.
Afte I finished, I painted it all over with deep penetration liquid to prepare it to be coated in more flexible frost resistant (cement like) glue.
Now I have to figure out which paints to use for it to look more realistic than my previous effort.
Junipers are waiting in the garden and that will be the most fun part to style them and wire into positions on the rock tower.
I will try and look up some suitable pot for it and if I won´t find anything, I will try to make a concrete slab for it.

Before the works begun


It went through like if I was sawing the butter - but pretty soon all of the sharp points on the blade were gone - for this process I totally destroyed 2 blades - maybe because I didn´t have any specially for stone sawing and used the ones designated for wood and metal cutting.


After the rough silhouette was done


and after carving



Back side with the channels for the roots, so they can reach the pot in some time...
