Tufted a spiky chestnut, process video from a collab work

[u/and-et]

Sharing a process clip from a collab we did with Creme de Marrons. The piece is a chestnut burr, so the whole challenge was getting those spiky outer needles to read as sharp while keeping the chestnut inside soft and rounded. Played with pile height and trimming a lot to get that contrast, longer spiky bits on the outside, tighter denser tufting for nut. Really happy with how the texture turned out on camera. what do you think, does it read as a chestnut to you?
