This is still too much effort.I would just take a branch from an actual pine tree and spray it with some sort of fixative, like a hair spray

That's great work! I appreciate the extra time and detail you put in to make it look realistic, the method looks very refined.

I 100% thought they were going to leave it light brown and call it "realistic because it looks dead, like most of nature will be soon".
