Interesting what people like and why

I'd have to say the first one.

The second while it has some nice deliberate registration problems just isn't "right" for the sort of stuff Leaf did, and just looks wrong.

I won't nitpick it, as it's a decent effort, and would work for most people who like the roughness of the originals. (But ask me if you want to know.)

One little thing that would make either seem more "leaf like" would be s strip of green to the left of the base. The originals would have come both ways though, so it's not a big thing.
