Jody,
I think it looks good. I have been watching others on Instagram do this art as well and wished I could do it. Maybe you inspired me to give it a shot.

Jody - in your video you talk about an "air scriber" - not a term I've seen before. Is this a rotary or reciprocating or ??? device?

And if you wanted bold colors on aluminum plate, what welding filler would you use?

@Mick,
Weldporn usually credits the welder in the title, in this case the fish is by Bushy_The_Pleco and the lizard by Moreynurman. The only problem I see with the fish is the fact that his scales are facing the wrong way. :)

@Jody,
Great job on the Batman (Joey did a fine job drawing it also). Some of the ones I've seen on Instagram are very impressive.

Len,
Oh no, those scales are the correct direction, that fish swims backwards. 8-)

Len, I got them as screen shots so never saw the original. Fabulous work by both of them.

@Mick,
Look in the upper left hand side of the screen shot and you'll see who's work it is along with the weldporn logo.

@Jonathan,
I'll bet that fish is a bottom feeder with that plate welded to his belly. :)
