bronze fabricated pine cone

Here's a curious little design problem.
I've been trying to figure out how to make a fairly realistic pine cone by the fabrication process WITHOUT having to make each individual petal by hand.
I finally hit upon the idea of punch parts as my stock repeatable shape. I have access to a marvelous old J.C.Whitney punch and generated a bucket of ovals from a sheet of 3/16th silicon bronze.
