Love your lighting and the colors. The angle makes me want to turn the whole thing so I can get a better look.

I like the tone and contrast...but angle has me a bit perplexed and I really can't put my finger on exactly what about it that is bothering me.

I think I can handle two of the request. The knife might be difficult to accommodate, I'll do my best. :)

Oh. Almost forgot, this is a statue of a Marine Corps emblem. Often referred to as the Eagle, Globe, and Anchor. The young Marines of today sometimes just call it the "EGA", which often infuriates the old crusty Marines of yesterday.

Never seen a 3d one before. Very cool. Your lightng on these last two is very smooth and rich, and brings out the detail nicely.
From an old squid...
