He Keith,

well done, I would go for the first one, because with the other one, the lightbox is too big in my opinion. Do you place a half round cap on top of the light?

Hi Keith,

I would go for the first one too. Can you imagine a lamp as big as your torso?! Plus, it would shine like a floodlight in scale!

Like your work so far. Have you posted anything else anywhere?
