Good stuff! The queue and topknot are outstanding.

I’m glad you’re building in the brick, but this seems like one of those scenes that might look better rendered with smoke and shadows and whatnot. Photographed LEGO always looks as bright and cheery as an IKEA catalog, regardless of the subject matter.

While I agree that a properly set up render could look excellent the problems with it are twofold: firstly the selection of minifig parts in CAD is very small and secondly with that much balancing there is no way people would believe it could be done in real life.

I also have a fondness for debauched Ikea catalogues :)
