Need help deciding? 3D version or Original?

[greenterra]

I haven't done any 3D Artwork for some time now but I recently got the urge. The problem I now face is I was going to get the original rendition(the 2nd image shown) printed as a Metal print. Since creating the 3D version, I am now undecided on which one to do? The Metal Print I am after will be at least 45" wide and will cost me over $500 to my door from the pros down south so you can see why I want to make sure the image on my wall is the one that has the most impact on people in general. My better half likes the original but I am leaning to the 3D version. What do you guys think?

I like the first one more. But either way, both pieces look great.

I like the 3d version, just concerned if they can make it as crisp in metal, any loss in detail of the shadowing etc, I'd move my opinion to the second.

That shouldn't be a problem. I have already had samples sent to me to see the quality of their work. I was blown away by the detail, quality and overall appearance of their product. Especially when done on their white base.

Can't wait to see the end product, but alas the final decision is yours

I'd go with the original, can't put my finger on it what it is exactly but it's just more appealing to me. Not trying to derail but I'd like to see an update on the Jack, how big is the beast now? I was actually considering picking up a Lutjanus griseus from Jeff Rapps with your Jack being the inspiration. Now I know the Griseus isn't a Jack(argentimaculatus) but I imagine temperament and ultimate size would be similar. I know you got rid of your cichlids because of the Jacks beastly nature and I was considering trying a Dovii and Griseus comm. in the near future, do you think something like that might be feasible? Again sorry to derail.
