What do you think of it? constructive criticism appreciated.

As said before, the effects are nice but the lines are way too jagged. I know you used a tablet so for best lighting like results don't take your time making it look electrical, go in fast clean swipes. This'll get you the best results.

I love the effects but it is perhaps a little tooooo bright. Takes a while to be able to focus on it because of that (in my opinion) Seems very chaotic aswell. But overall it's pretty nice.

Well in reality, its not too bright.....the guy IS welding after all...

I really like it!

Good effects. The lines are fine jagged - that's how they should look. Also the brightness, but yeah, it really would be that bright. If you had a different image, you could probably do something more interesting with composition, like if you had the guy in front of and covering up some of that light, but still show it at that brightness to the sides of him, so it wouldn't be so overwhelming.

thanks for the responses ;)
Yea Jeff, that would be awsome, but maybe not so for a sig , but a LP instead

nice piece but it looks like you used paint!
i like the colours and the brightness

I really like it, and it would be that bright as Jeff and others said. :D
Good job on the lighting it's quite realistic.
And if you did find something where the man was covering up the light source and you had the same effects, it would be amazing as an LP, so keep your eyes peeled for a render/stock like that!!

I totally understand that it should be bright, but I don't think that's any reason for it to be washed out. For example, the bottom right of the sig where there is clearly a shadow behind the guy, it's still bright because the signature is just so washed out with light colors. I think some depth is definetly in order.

And about the jagged lines, I think they're awesome and you did a good job, but there's some that just look like maybe too much? Some in the top right and bottom left look a little scribbley.

Other than that though, awesome compo and lighting, great job overall.

I agree about the lines you noted. (the botom left and top right) Was thinking about removing them, but it looks kinda empty without them, so I kept it there.
