The third last is the best of all. The stock placement really isn't for an avatar containing text. It could have been much better with the stock a little bit more on the left. The lightning isn't that great either, the whole face is looking so bright in it which just makes it unprofessional. This is a good point, lightning is meant to be on a specific place, like for this one, the light spot could have been small and placed on the very right side of Bale's head, it would have made this much better. If you couldn't understand this point then see Aggz's, Simon's, Anish's and Neer's thread. These guys have been doing that stuff in almost all the avatars. However, keep up the amazing work man. ;thumbs
