 Lots of light, especially on the background. Sat ro bring the colors out a bit. Make the whites more white. Contrast and curves. Usharp mask and border. Poor Shaggy. I hated to do this to him but his arms were already off so this is actually corrective surgery.

Really clever idea. I would have give it a higher score if the composition was a little 'tighter'.

The white is just a bit too bright, and I might have found a way to get rid of the shadow of the table legs. Good pun and creatively done!

I should have thought if this. My kid is a Scooby freak and has all these figurines. For the past week or so, Shaggy has been sitting on our counter with his arm off. The little bugger won't stay on!
