Yup things are moving along swiftly now, so I decided to make the tree's contours into much simpler geometric shapes I can copy paste and rearrange as I like in layers. This opens up the posibilities in terms of having more than just one kind of pine tree at any one moment as well.

However a sacrifice was made since the pine tree is no longer a real Red Jap Pine Tree, but more of just a generic Eastern Pine Tree.
