Well i'm no member but as you want a critique i'll give you a small one, if that's okay with you?
I'd say the design is good and aestheticly appealing but the materials let the whole piece down (unfortunately). I'll go into it a little, the bar you use looks a bit cheap, perhaps try some 8x12mm bar and taper the ends for the scrolls. Where the bar meets the dish, seeing the weld is a bit ugly in my opinion, maybe have the bar passing through the piece and plug weld it from the other side to hide them.
All in all, a very nice piece with good flow and a nice design

Hope it helped!

If not give me a shout and ill delete it or somesuch.

Of course. Any feedback is helpful, thanks so much for taking the time to write it.

It was materials commonly found in schools, so they are the cheaper sort. But I'll look into better material and paint.

It helped a lot. That was a really good idea about hiding the welds. I'll have to try it out.

Hope you had a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by.
