Had loaads of fun with this one. I wanted to include Scrooge in the photo, but the Donold Duck I had was too big.
The Prop was quickly bashed together.
Lighting was with a 500 watt halogen through a sheet of White perspex to mke it a little more difuse, plus halogen from above.
Almost no post processing. Minor crop and Unshap mask was all.

cute, original idea. Must have been a lot of work!
Lighting and focus could be better - but it must be hard to deal with lighting with all that reflective stuff.

There are a lot of reflections causing little hots spots. The reference is lost on me.

Technical: Fits the challenge quite well! Exposure composition focus lighting are all excellent- I wish the writing on the "depth gauge" was a little easier to read, but that's nitpicky.

Personal: Extremely creative, you obviously put some time, effort and thought into this. Thank you!

This must have taken a long time to set up, but I just don't get the concept behind it. You definitely get points for set up!

Hehe, a lot of work, but didn't quite pay off, a seven for the great effort you put on this :)

LOL funny idea although I don't understand the meaning of the sign at the lower right corner, and the door and platform could have been more well-constructed.

Ha! I recognized the McDuck vault instantly... the thing that kills it for me is the "depth gauge" sign. Just seems messy and doesn't really fit in well.
